Robert caught this net of bluegills to win the season closing event and secure 3rd place in the 2004 CBA League. |
Elise was second and the gold fish she caught was the only "bonus" fish of the match. Besides bluegills, few shiners were also caught. |
Paul finished third fishing waggler for most of the match and then switching to a short whip in the last hour. |
Mirek caught most of his fish with his 8-meter Bolognese rod. |
Match 11
Lake Arlington, Arlington
Heights, IL. October 30, 2004.
Not the best day for fishing - it was like sitting in a wind tunnel - the
South-West wind was battering the competing anglers with gusts close to
50mph! The most important thing to report is that nobody got hurt and no
poles/rods got broken. Also, everyone managed to catch fish! It was
impossible to fish with poles longer than 10 meters. Peter Wolan was brave
enough to fish at 9.5 meters and that's where he caught most of his 10 lbs of
bluegills. Robert Wolan fished with a 8 meter pole and caught 1 nice carp and
some bluegills for over 9 lbs. and second place. Derek Aniolkowski
finished third with the bulk of his fish caught with a match rod fished at 30
meters.

NWMA Championships -
Match
9 & 10
Schaumburg Municipal Center, IL.,
September 18-19, 2004
The match was contested over two 2-1/2 hour heats. There was only one carp
caught in the first heat (by Peter Wolan) otherwise it was all out bluegill match.
It was tough fishing, especially in the second heat because we fished the same
pegs in the afternoon as we did in the morning. Debbie Compton once again showed
her bluegill catching skills and won the match with just 3 points. Robert Wolan
was second and Elise DeVilliers and Bernice Bradley followed in 3rd and
4th.
On a sadder note, after the match, NWMA officials announced this would be the
club's final championships.

CBA
Championships - Match
7 & 8
Fox River & Canal,
Montgomery, IL., August 28-29th, 2004
The match was contested over 2 days - on Saturday we fished on the Fox River and
on Sunday we moved to the canal. The river was higher than in previous days and
some anglers decided to fish with 3-5 gram flat floats. However, Peter Wolan -
who had the best weight of the day - was using a 2 gram round bodied float.
Bunches of maggots fished on size 14 hook were Peter's most productive bait. The
fishing was much tougher on Sunday on the canal side. Derek took good advantage
of his end peg and caught 5 carp and 1 catfish on the long pole fished at 9
meters. Paul Wells also put together good weight fishing the method feeder to
the far bank. The weights on both days could have been a lot higher but a lot of
fish were lost: almost every angler competing lost at least one good fish each
day.
