Saturday September 12th saw the close to the OKBT 2020 live event season with the Kashagawigamog Lake tournament. The day was, lets say interesting, for the lack of a better term. With unsettled weather all week leading up to the event the pre-fishing was slow and tough from all reports. Friday saw a little break…
August has come and gone and that means that the OKBT Swamp Donkey Challenge is done. What a great event again this year. There were some great largemouth entered and it really shows the quality of our fishery in the province. The lead changed hands a few time in the month with Brent Lepine…
The weather man said it would be windy and windy it was for the OKBT #3 Rondeau Bay event on August 15th. 51 anglers came out to challenge themselves on the bay in Erieau, ON which is part of Lake Erie. The wind was high but the bass did not care. They came out to…
Wow! Wow! Wow! The OKBT July ‘Get Your Bass On’ online event is over and did I say Wow already. First of all it was another record with 85 anglers taking part in the event. And secondly, some of the cards being submitted from all over the province were unreal. You needed 90”just to make…
OKBT #2 on Lake Couchiching has come and gone, and not a moment to soon in my books. I think the two words for the day were HOT and TOUGH. And hot it was at 34C and thanks to this three week heat wave we have been experiencing in Ontario the lake was like soup…
Well all I can say is I am happy that the first OKBT event of 2020 is over and went off without any issues. Three months ago if you were to ask me if I thought it would be a go I likely would have shrugged my shoulders and said we will have to see…
Well that’s all folks. Hawgtober has come to an end and all I can say Is WOW! What a month it was. When the dust settled the top 15 all had over 90” and proved that it’s not only the big water that can produce great fish. Big numbers out of the gate from Michael…
And the final results are in for the OKBT September ‘Full House’ Online Challenge. To say it was close is an understatement. This was an extremely tight race for the top spot and came down to tie-breakers for 1st and 2nd as well as 3rd through 6th. Congratulations go out to everyone for putting in…
Saturday Sept 14th saw the final OKBT event of the season take place on Balsam Lake. To say it was a tough day may be putting it lightly. With unstable weather all week, and getting worse overnight Friday into Saturday,it did not help the fishing at all. With 43 anglers registered, only 58 fish were…
Swamp Donkeys, Ditch Pickles, Hawgs, Hydrilla Gorrilas, or whatever you want to call them, they sure did come out to play this month for the OKBT August ‘Swamp Donkey’ Challenge. With anglers from all corners of Ontario and into Quebec participating, we got to see some true northern green bass. Whoever thought that there is…
