One of 700

Congratulations to Jeff and Tina, who did happen to catch one of the 700 smallmouth the ministry tagged from this year's Atikokan Bass Classic tournament. It was a nice 18 and a half inch smallie, and of course, was released to fight again. They landed the fish off an island on Marmion Lake while doing a little prefishing for next year's tournament. I will attach a picture of Tina holding the bass with a small yellow strap on its dorsal fin. 700 fish sounds like a lot to be tagged, but to catch one is actually quite a feat considering there is probably a half a million or so bass in the Floods and Marmion Lake. Good job Tina! ~ and Jeff for being the Net Man!
