Mike and Howard Gifford prove Smallmouth still win on Lake Nipissing
With 40 mile a hour winds predicted for Sundays event on Lake Nipissing and low water levels alot of anglers did
not show up to fish what would be one of the comest days I have seen in years on lake Nipissing. Anglers that did
show up had no problem getting to any spot they wonted to fish on the lake and surprizingly the water levels did
not effect safty issues at all.
Teams reported that they seen shcools of fish , and alot of big fish that would just not hit, but the Team of
Howard and Mike Gifford figured out how to make those big fish bite, an the brothers came to the scales with
19.26lbs of Smallmouth Bass to take 1st place. The team said some day they will take me out and show me a few
tricks they use.
 
Another team that can figure out how to get the Bass to bite , or just pester them so bad that they bite out
out of anger is Sean Strang and Chris Sheffield. This team is no stranger to the winners circle and with 18.36lbs
the team had no problem taking 2cd place. The team also said they will take me out some day and show me a few
tricks they use.
 
When it comes to Lake Nipissing Brian Milne says he just gets excited to go to a Tournament there, and Brian and
his partner Greg Gilson showed us why when they came to the scales with 17.34lbs to take 3rd place and a
4.60lb Smallmouth which would take the Big Fish award. Its starting to get odd now because Brian and Greg said
they would take me out and show me some tricks they use, LOL.
 
This was the last qualifier of the year for the 2010 Classic and Anglers are reminded too get your money in for
the Classic if you are going to fish it. With roughly $40,000.oo in cash and prizes, including the FREE draw for the
boat motor and tralor which will go to one of the teams fishing the Classic and a few laughs too boot, this will
be one event you dont wont to miss. If your not planning on fishing it come on out Sunday Sept.26th at 3pm and join
in the fun.
