While at the BFL Regional the last 7 days I heard a rumor that next year’s BFL schedule has changed. They are canning the July Clinton, IA tournament and replacing it with WABASHA, MN Pool 4! I sure hope that is true.

I Heard a Rumor (Pool 4)…

Good news! That was my suggestion when I first saw the tentative schedule. Maybe someone of importance heard me bitchin’!
October 8, 2006 at 6:26 am #486756dave..I would welcome that greatly..even I have made alot of money on that pool
October 8, 2006 at 12:08 pm #486762I have mixed feelings on that. It is my home pool and it is one tournament I don’t have to take time off work for to fish. I realize also that it fishes small but there are alot of fish in pools 14 and 15 and some good ones as indicated by Jeffs 17+ pound bag this year. Without researching it I am going to guess that that might have been the heaviest weight in the great lakes division this year. BUT !!! it was the worst tournament of the year for me including the regional.
I just checked Jeff had 17lbs 7oz in Clinton, that is a half pound heavier than any other limit weighed in the Great Lakes division this year.
October 8, 2006 at 1:57 pm #486768Pools 13 and 14 are always prone to giving up a big sack like Jeff’s this year. The problem is there are very few big sacks. To prove my point, I cashed a check at the same Clinton tournament as Jeff’s 17+ pound win…and I only had 4 fish for 8 1/2 pounds. I had less than half of his weight and still finished in the top 20…
I wouldn’t mind fishing either place actually, I just prefer pool 4.
October 9, 2006 at 2:30 am #486872Why not keep clinton and get rid of the wolf river, at least in pool 13 ypu have the chance at a good sack if you go out and find them and can get a good draw.
October 9, 2006 at 11:02 am #486901I fished a tournament last weekend and it took 20 lbs to win on pools 4-5. 18 was 2nd.
I’m happy if they come to pool 4!!
October 9, 2006 at 12:59 pm #486928I agree. Bring it on up. Last time the BFL was in Wabasha it took over 17# to win and around 11-13# was about 20th.
