JayClay Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 We tried everything we could to have this event run on the big lake but it just wasn't possible this weekend. The event was moved to Millers Creek Marina the morning of and restricted to the Upper Niagara River only. Thanks to all teams for understanding the last minute change. We know many teams prefished the lake but it just wasn't going to be safe with winds kicking up early.Congratulations to John and Perry Poirer on the win! Bags just keep getting bigger and bigger from the river. With bad weather conditiotns we still had a total of 23 teams compete. Top 6 teams below and the full results are attached.FINISH NAME: BIG FISH WEIGHT PAYOUT1 John Poirer / Perry Poirer 4.98 22.85 $1,040 $160 BF22 Travis McDonald / Gary Sanderson 21.44 $7903 Landon Klassen / Rick Besteman 4.54 19.77 $6204 Tom Chopin / Craig Butler 5.21 19.69 $460 $300 BF15 John Prokator / Kevin MacDonald 19.31 $3706 Jeff Turner / Barry Pringle 4.35 19.09 $250Special thanks to Bill Whitehead of Niagara Outdoors Show and Blake Rankie of VRX for the prize donations.We also wanted to give an akowledgement to Martin Szomolanyi and Mike Craftchick for the honesty and sportmanship they showed in an unfortunate circumstance.
