"Military Help Time"

The Anglers of Christ Bass Club of Lafayette hosted its 1st Annual “Mini Benefit” Tournament at Henderson on December 11, 2010. All proceeds went to help out military families of those having been, or still serving active duty. The winners of the event get to claim “bragging rights” for the next year.

The team of Tim & Aaron Choate claimed 1st place by way of catching a 3 fish limit (per boat) weighing in at 7.48 lbs. Sitting in 2nd place was the duo of Randy Prejean & Al Perry with a weight of 6.94 lbs. 3rd place had Lawrence Brunet & Mike Dubuc with a limit coming in at 6.33 lbs.

Thanks to the 14 teams that participated and those that donated to make the event a success.  A total of over $1000 was raised on the day, not bad considering the entry fee was only $20 per boat. We look forward to holding the event again next year and with bigger expectations
