Manager's Comment: It was a perfect day on the North Chain O’ Lakes for the Regional Bass Fishing Tournament, where all 24 boats successfully weighed in fish, an impressive feat for the competition. Congratulations to the Nicolai brothers from Woodstock North, who claimed the Regional title with an outstanding total weight of 14.47 lbs! The competition was tough, with the remaining boats closely matched in weight. After a hard-fought battle, six boats have earned the opportunity to advance to the South Chain O’ Lakes Sectional, taking place next Thursday, May 22. Best of luck to all advancing teams!
