MAKBF Open Results

A rainy Saturday made for cold and wet conditions, but our anglers were able to put some quality fish in their kayaks. While we hoped for some bass boats to show up for the OPEN, the event consisted of only kayak anglers. I guess they didn't want to get the carpet wet on their boat lol
