June 6th Waneta Tournament Results:

🥇 1st Place - Zach Baker + Katia Rivers
🥈 2nd Place - Alex Knapp + Joseph Nauert
🥉 3rd Place - Doug Coney

Big Fish - 43 inches Katia Rivers

Congratulations to the winners!

16 anglers came out for another always unique adventure. Every year it seems Mother Nature always has a variable for this event, from years past of high waters, storms and things like curly pond w**d die off this year proved no differently. 6 legal fish were caught with many more following or leaving hooks prematurely. Over all a good day on the lake!
A huge thank you to “The Inn at Waneta” for allowing us to have our awards and grill out after the tournament!
Thank you to all the anglers who came out to put in work for our first event of the year!
Now on to the next!
We hope to see you soon!
