September is here and as we start to move to fall patterns the pesky heat will not go away. With mostly sunny sky’s temperatures still reaching the low 90′s it still feels like summer but and a nice breeze did make it more bearable for the anglers. Lake Marion was this months lake of choice and I usually brag up the Warriors anglers but this month it was Lake Marion one anglers zero This could have been the toughest tournament in Warriors history. We sent out 22 boats and the Warriors anglers managed just 15 bass, no limits,2 fish over 4 lbs & 1 6 pounder for a total of 36.10 lbs of fish. Fishing is still better than work but as they say some days your the bug and some days your the windshield. We do have some winners so rounding out the money spots in 6th place was Scott Hair & Hunter with 2.50 lbs. Coming in 5th was Jonathan Hughes & Chris Shaddick with 3.90 lbs. 4th place went to Vince Edwards & Dale Hayes with 4.36 lbs, 3rd went to Shelton Smith & Brandon Blondeel with 5.70 lbs. First runner up on 2nd was Billy Bauknight & Brian Deaton with 6.30 lbs. Top Honors go first year team Luigi Capriotti & Ronan with 8.24 Lbs that bag was anchored by the days Big Fish going 6.44 lbs. Congrats to all the winners

July Tournament
Dog days off summer are here and showing no sign of letting up. With temperatures in the mid to upper 90′s humidity and light wind it was a tough day on the water. Lake Cypress was this months lake of choice and with the new format we launched from Overstreet and allowed the anglers to fish Kissimmee, Hatch, & Cypress due the the poor condition of the Cypress ramp and facility. It seem to work out great. After a small cow in the road delay we sent out 34 boats and even though the fishing was reported to be slow by most the Warriors anglers still caught them pretty good. We weighed in 124 Bass,16 limits 8 fish over 5 lbs, 3over 6lbs, and a giant going almost 9lbs for a total of 297.90 lbs of fish Pretty good for a Hot Tough day. We do now have 42 teams so looks like the rest of the year will be crowded. We do need to say welcome to 3 new teams this month welcome aboard hope you had a great time. Rounding out the money spots in 7th place was Danny Hinton & Nathan Haystead with 13.06 lbs, Coming in 6th was Austin Disbro & Jay Durinich with 13.88 lbs. 5th went to Chris & Travis Miller with 15.52 lbs, Coming in 4th was Tane Crossley with 17.62 lbs. 3rd went to Billy Bauknight & Brian Deaton with 19.48 lbs.
