Ramp: Elizabeth Park  Big Bass:
  The Trophy Bassmasters made their 2nd trip up North to the big waters of Lake Erie. This time the starting point was near Monroe MI on the Detroit River. This gave the anglers many choices as they could stay in the river, travel South to Lake Erie, or run the 25 miles up the Detroit River to the North and Lake St Clair. The 13 members did a little of each as they met with varied success. First place and big bass winner, Judd Rarey traveled 27 miles into Lake Erie. He nailed 5 smallmouth and 15.69lbs including a 4.57lb smallmouth for the big bass honors. Boyd Downey went the other way as he ran 37 miles into Lake St Clair to net 13.94lbs in his 5 fish limit for 2nd place. A sharp contrast was 3rd place finisher Mark Dairy. He caught 2 of his best fish at the launch ramp and finished his limit within site of the ramp. Dairy’s best 5 weighed 13.28. The Mr. Bass point standings took another shake up at the top as Downey moved back in front. Rookie Lance Blevins has the membership taking notice as he has moved into the 2nd spot in the standings in only his first year of serious bass fishing. Blevins has a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th, and two 5th place finishes while only failing to bring in a keeper in 1 tournament during his very consistent season.
