2021 Review, and our Next Meeting

Congratulations to this years Angler of the Year winners, and also to our Club Championship winners. You guys showed up and fished hard all year. Very proud of our turnout, lets keep it going for next year. 

Club Championship Winners:
Championship winner on the boater side was Kyle Kimbrell, and the winner on the Co side was Lincoln Stewart. Both of these guys fished great all year, but they where not going to be denied that top spot during the classic. The pot was sweetened this year, and they capitalized. Great job guys!

Our Angler of the year winners:
This year on the boater side we had a tie that went down to the tie breaker between Scott Holmes, and Chris Wiemar. Chris took the top spot by having total weight through out the year. Congratulations Chris, and to Scott!
On the Co-Angler side, Alex Roberts, aka Axle Rod got it done, with Wallace and Lincoln putting up a good fight along the way. Big congrats Alex, and continue that momentum into next year. 

Alabama Bass Nation: 
It has been a decade since the Birmingham Bass Club didn't send someone to the Bass Nation State Team, and this year we keep that tradition alive. Big shout out and congratulations to Jeff Corley, and Will McRee for not only making the state team, but also winning the Team side during the championship, and advancing on to the Bass Nation Team Championship as well. Jeff also scored big fish catching a giant 6.57 lb Lake Martin large head. 

The Team Championship will be hosted on Lake Eufaula December 8th - 11th, and because they won last weekend they will be awarded the $500 entry fee. 
The regional will be hosted on Smith Lake next year in April. Good luck guys!

As a whole, we had 3 boaters finish in the top 20, and 7 co-anglers in the top 20. Outstanding showing this year. 

In Other News:
​Also, big nod to Travis Culbreth. Travis fished the Bass Open trail along with the Bama Nation Trail. He took 6th place at Lake Norman, 3rd place at Smith Lake, and 2nd place at Grand Lake in the Opens. He also still finished top 10 on the Nation side. What a year! We see you big boy! Yeah bud!
