Yes it sure does Brysen ... and of course thanks to Bass Pro Shops, all of our great sponsors and the tournament committee that has been planning this event since a week after the 2008 BPS Open. Of course - we can't forget all the competing anglers for their support.

Stay tuned for a couple more exciting announcements that will be revealed before the tournament on Sat Oct 24th out of Orillia.

Congratulations to all who will be fishing the 2009 BPS Open ... this will be a great tournament to be part of - regardless of where you end up in the standings!

Thanks

I can't wait! I went out on Saturday to a local (Vancouver Island) lake to make sure the rust was off my hookset arm. It was a little warmer here I think...



This was a 4-11 that hammered my tube jig.

Guess I better pack my long johns for the Toronto flight... :O

Excellent! I have experience culling anything under 5 lbs already from here in BC, so it'll be just like home.

There's nothing like catching bass that your other competitors would kill for, but they won't help your limit at all...
