MCA members, Don't forget that our 1st winter meeting will be held on Sunday November 13th @ 6:00 pm at The Hunting Lodge in Finleyville. Please plan to attend as we will elect new officers among other things

Well, Another year is in the books for the MCA anglers. This year we returned to New York for our club classic held at Oneida Lake. The lake fished tough as the bass were hard to find. The weather cooperated throughout the week until Friday which was the first day of the tournament. The members were greeted with 3' + waves on the lake. At weigh in, only 2 limits were caught. A small craft advisory was in effect for Saturday, so the club had no choice but to cancel the 2nd day. In the end, Derek Severns came out on top with a weight of 16.32 #, Dan Laur was 2nd with 13.61, Brad Bressler was 3rd with 9.55, Dave Solties placed 4th with 6.81, Brian Spencer placed 5th with 4.84, & Dan Mincin placed 6th with 3.07.

A special thanks goes out to the camp cook Mike Stefan who not only brought all of the food, but also kept us all well fed!

The 2016 MCA Youth Day was a great day for all the kids and adults.  A special thanks goes out Dan Mincin and his family for all of their hard work putting on this event. Thanks to all the adults that brought their kids, helped cook and brought food and drinks.  I know all the kids had a great time and love this event. 

MCA has just finished the last 2 tournaments of the regular season this past weekend. Your winner for both the Erie & Conneaut Lake events was Derek Severns, nice job Derek!

Derek also caught the lunker of the year, a 5.11 smallmouth at Conneaut narrowly beating out a 5.10 largemouth caught at Pymatuning Lake by Mike Henry earlier in the year

After a tight points race all year, the 2016 MCA Angler of the Year is Dave Solties, congrats Jigs!!

Next up is the MCA classic which will be held at Oneida Lake in New York next month

Congratulations to MCA member Brian Spencer who qualified for the 2017 Super Regional Tournament. Brian qualified through the 2 state tournaments held at the Susquehanna Flats & the Monongahela River this year as a rider. Also, members Brad Bressler & Dan Laur have qualified for the Pa Classic at the Potomac River in October which is a 2nd option to make the Super Regional, good luck guys
