Well it was a rainy start to the Michigan bass nation circuit. The first stop was Coldwater lake. We had 3 teams compete in both Saturday and Sunday tournament. The teams were excited to start the year off and look forward to the next ones. In just a few weeks we'll be moving North to Hubbard lake. Good job everyone. A big Thanks to the Carr family and all the other volunteers for all their work to make it all happen.

When we started competing in the Sportspersons Ministries International circuit in 2019 there were around 35 H.S. teams. The Fishhawx club was born from it. We can't thank Ross Graveling enough for all the hard work he's put in collaborating with club leaders to keep the circuit growing, enforcing good rules to keep it all about the kids growth and teaching those involved about God's word and challenging us to know him better. This has become the premier circuit in W. MI and the lives you continue to touch through it is so essential in these trying times for our youth.

The third Sportspersons Ministries International bass tournament was on Saturday 5/9 on the Grand River presented by Distinctive Manufacturing Group.

The weather was very cold for our last spring boating tournament. We had our biggest turnout yet with 30 teams that competed. We had a great tournament in the tough conditions. For a lot of our teams, the hard work put into research and practice before the tournament paid off big time.

We were able to take home the school of the year award for both the high school and middle school divisions. Our goal has been to win School of the Year for high school for the last few years. We have some great hammers in our high school division, and we have plenty in our middle school division that we look forward to their continued growth into the high school division next year.

Our team that put in the most work was rewarded for their effort. I think they might have put in more hours on the water practicing before each of the tournaments than any other team in the field. Trenton and Deacon Nyland are some amazing anglers on and off the water, and we look forward to what the future holds for Trenton as he graduated this year. We are excited to have Deacon back next year to continue the amazing work he put in this year. They won all three Sportspersons Ministries International bass tournaments and won anglers of the year for the high school division in a field of over 100 very competitive high school teams. Congrats again to them!
