2015 Bass Cat Owners Regional Event – GAF / Toledo Bend
The 2015 GAF is officially in the books. 34 Bass Cat boats showed up with 30 paying entrants managed to catch a few fish in some breezy conditions on Toledo Bend. The tournament paid out 7 places, big bass, and the 8th place took home a Denali rod. Almost $3,300 was paid out (100%). Strike King Lures donated each team a tackle pack and Denali Rods provided a rod for the first place out of the money award. Phil Addison and partner Mike Huckman won the event with 21.06 lbs and also took the big bass with an 8.82. There were many pictures taken of all the fun. So check back soon to see those. Thanks again for all those that attended! In addition, thanks Bass Cat with your support. Jason Brewer (BCB Sales Rep), Ed Whaley (BCB Sales Rep) and Elite Pro Kevin Short were there to help with the event!Pictures here: http://www.impactfishing.com/GAF2015_fi ... 15pics.htm, 2015 Bass Cat Owners Regional Tournament - GAF / Toledo Bend, , ||Place, Angler 1, Angler 2, Fish, Weight, Big Bass, Penalty, Boat #, ||1, Phil Addison, Mike Huckman, 5, 21.06, 8.82, , 31, ||2, Damen Smith, Jason Guidry , 5, 17.34, 8.35, , 17, ||3, Darren Roberts, Craig Hay, 5, 15.63, , , 12, ||4, Jim Ebarb, Adron Ebarb, 5, 14.73, , , 18, ||5, Mike Coffee, Mark Abney, 5, 14.3, 6.88, , 30, ||6, George Clay, Danny Meza, 4, 13.84, 7.99, , 3, ||7, Doug Morrow, Josh Clark, 5, 13.49, , , 28, ||8, Kevin Hoffpauir, Mike Hoffpauir, 5, 13.41, , , 11, || , Rodney Sweet, Jon Summers, 5, 12.43, , , 20, || , Josh Sikes, Rick Villemarette, 5, 11.54, , , 7, || , Ryder Pierce, Dylan Pierce, 5, 11.54, , , 13, || , Mike Sanders, Chuck Turner, 5, 11.51, , , 24, || , Ward Gardener, Kevin Short, 5, 11.23, , , 26, || , Anthony Holand, Todd Sundey, 5, 10.93, , , 15, || , Jeremy Parker, Kathie Parker, 4, 10.39, , 1, 2, || , Andy Graves, Eddie G, 3, 9.37, , , 6, || , Wayne Jarreau Jr., Clay Valen, 5, 9.34, , , 8, || , Stewart Beatty, Jason Parker, 4, 9.19, , , 1, || , Jay Carroll, John Tutor, 2, 9.17, 6.35, , 5, || , Tate Molea, Micah Sanchez, 5, 8.82, , , 4, || , Keith King, Caleb Stark, 4, 7.91, , 1, 25, || , John Dubois, Jenny Dubois, 3, 6.11, , , 10, || , Gerald Barrilleaux, Garrett Barrilleaux, 2, 4.46, , , 14, || , Jeremy Risely, Andy Case, , 0, , , 9, || , Ed Whaley, Darren Sebek, , 0, , , 16, || , James Maxwell, Bryan Bunting, , 0, , , 19, || , Phil Harrell, Grady Norton, , 0, , , 21, || , Chris Harris, Troy Wells, , 0, , , 22, || , Faron Blank, Bob Anderson, , 0, , , 23, || , Mike Petrovic, Mark Perry, , 0, , , 27, || , Jeff Swann, Justin Swann, , 0, , , 29, ||Last edited by PhilAddison on October 13th, 2015, 11:50 pm, edited 3 times in total.

Three 8lbers weighed for a post front 30 boat derby?Wow.Thanks a ton for running it again Phil. Man it just goes way too fast.C.O.D. Jr. III
I got some pics coming. Just got home
Thanks for all of yalls hard work to make this a success. Hope to see everybody next year!
Congrats Phil and Mike. I had planned on being there. Actually me and my partner were there. Fished Thursday and Friday morning and my partners motor went down. So we loaded up Friday morning and came home. Ill be back next year.
Mark and I had a great time. I wanted to say thanks to Phil, Mike, Andy, Luke and the rest of the folks who helped out. It was a lot of fun and is always good to meet fellow BassCat owners. I hope everyone got home safely and I hope to see you all next year.Here are a few pictures.
Thanks again Phil for doing what you do to make this happen.I just want to mention that a fellow catter got a crank bait hook imbedded into his finger Saturday morning and I was able to use the line method to “pop” it out and I hope he is doing good. Here is a utube video of how to remove a hook using this method and I hope everyone will watch it and learn how to do this. (I like the whiskey part.) It was my 3rd treble hook to remove from a fisherman.GeorgeWell I cant get the link to post here so if you look on you tube or google hook removal you will find several videos on how to do it….Last edited by gclayfam on October 12th, 2015, 5:30 pm, edited 6 times in total.George

I was a nervous wreck when yall did that but didnt feel a thing. Thanks a million I didnt know what to do. This happened on the dock before daylight.Last edited by High Cotton on October 13th, 2015, 10:24 am, edited 1 time in total.

HC,Glad I was there to pop it out and I could see the look on your face that you were a nervous wreck. Next time lets just say hello.George ClayGeorge
Last pic shows what lures were really being used instead of the half truths at the weight in lol. I enoyed myself and would fish it again. 5 hour ride for me but not too bad. Wish there had been more grass in the lake.

Wish there had been more grass in the lake. No. Most of the checks came shallow. I got hung up on some deep ones it didnt pan out.
