We are officially over 1/3 of the way through the 2026 season as already!

Saturday 4/18 we had our 2nd tournament of the at Geist Reservoir. We had a great showing with 23 boats and all 23 boats brought fish to the scales. 1st Place and Big Bass honors went to team White and Farrar weighing 15.70lbs achored by a 6.72lb mondo largemouth. 2nd place went to Team Languell/Heaton with 15.23lbs and they also secured 2nd big bass with a 4.69lb largemouth. 3rd place honors went to Team Taylor/Spandau with Tommy catching 14.17lbs while Todd balance beamed all their culls and Tommy sitting there watching him do all the work. 4th place and taking home last check was Team Morris/Hartmann with 13.15lbs.

Tournament Two of the weekend was held on Morse on Sunday 4/19. The weather was not for the faint of heart and we only had 17 boats participate. Taking home 1st place and Big Bass Honors was Team Morris/Hartmann with 16.69lbs anchored by just a tiny 6.45lb largemouth. 2nd place with 14.81 was Team Mahurin and rounding out the top 3 was guess who.....Team Languell/Heaton with 14.61lbs. Big Fish Ken Bilyeu threw a 5.89lb largemouth on the scale and took home 2nd big bass honors!!

Congrats to all that did well this week and take a look at the elite 8 standings below. We have quite the battle going on to see who finishes above that cut mark!! See you all at Tippy

Stop #1 Kentucky Lake

The fishing was far from lights out, but I will say for being March we couldn't have asked for better weather and we were still able to bring quite a few fish back to weigh in every day!!

We had several new teams fishing their first IBC tournament ever and 2 of those teams had fantastic starts to the season!! Team Allman & Kelly took home first place and were the only team to bring in a limit each day with a two day total of 25.47lbs!! Team Laguell/Heaton took home 2nd place and Big Bass honors for the tourney weighing in 7 fish for 21.71lbs & BB of 4.31lbs. 3rd Place went with to two long standing members, but newly formed duo - Team Lillard/Curtis with 17.71lbs. And rounding out the top 4 was another new team - Gilbert/Gilbert with a strong day 2 performance and a total weight of 15.04lbs. Team White/Farrar nabbed 2nd BB honors with a 4.12 BB.

In just a few short weeks we will be back at it with a back to back tourney week at Geist and Morse! See you all there!!

Congrats to Dayton and Charlie Land on winning their first IBC Classic and locking up the AOY Points Race!!

Wayne Judd /Byron Johnson were able to squeeze in for the Elite 8 race and Ted McClintick and Todd Smith were able to secure the Wild Card Berth into the Elite 8 as well.

All of the teams were served a pretty sweet dinner from 5-2-Oh food truck on friday night. Proceeds from the #1 boat launch auction paid for a majority of the meals. Thanks Tyler Land🤣

It was a fantastic season for IBC. First and foremost the camaraderie is the best around. It's definitely a family atmosphere in IBC. The competition is tough. The championship and elite 8 came down to the last day.

Next up is the Elite 8 Tourney on 10/11

We are already hard at work for the 2026 season!
