I received word earlier that the WIU fishing team, which I have supplied some cranks to here recently, placed 1st and 4th at the 2011 Illinois Collegiate State Championship Bass Tournament this weekend on Jacksonville Lake. I'll update again when I get a hold of some more photos and information.
If you're not aware, bass fishing is really becoming hot at the colleges and universities around the country. I really wish I could do more than just supply some lures...many of these teams don't receive the same funding that the more traditional sports teams have access to, so they are often cover their expenses out of their own pockets or with small donations from parents or whatever sponsorship they can scratch up. If you have a few, check out https://www.collegebass.com/schools.aspx and see if a school near you is listed and become a fan of their team!
