From Capt. Larry's site:

Today is the Chautauqua Tourney, I will give a catch report tonight. As of 6:45 am the rain stopped,lake is calm.Update,there have been some nice fish caught as of noon,5 more hours before I can mention who caught what.
1st Place James Dennison 47" $250
2nd Place Mark W Anderson 42"(9:45am)$150
3rd Place Joe Dolan 42"(9:58)$125
4th Place Terri Linamen 41"(10:02)$75
5th Place Bryan Farmer 41"(11:15)$50
5 other smaller muskies were caught.
10 muskies were caught out of 25 fishermen on the water,5 fishermen paid but did not fish.
Notice the bite window was from 9:37 am to10:02 am for 4 of the wining fish,last one was 1 HR 10 minutes later,almost all the smaller Muskies hit in the same time window.
Low turnout but good average per fishermen on a lousy cold front windy day!

Congratulations Mark and Joe!

Congratulations to Mark Anderson and Joe Dolan for 2nd and 3rd.  Both 42", only 13 min. apart.  The question I have is, were they in the same boat?

[John Pensyl]

Congrats guys, nice fish.  Hot hour for sure.

Chautauqua is so moody

[Joe Dolan]

Hey Everyone,

No, Mark and I were not on the same boat.  That really was a small window of opportunity for a rough day.  I noticed a little wind change and the sun trying to peak out of the clouds right around the same time.

I did not get a chance to talk (and to congratulate) Mark after the tournament, so I am not sure where/how he caught his.  I was casting just north of lighthouse point in a weedy flat area (just before the boyscout cabin).  It hit on a lunge lumber 9" perch prowler.

Thanks for the congratulations!  Thanks goes out to Captain Larry Jones for another well-run tournament.  I really enjoy participating in these every year.
