Eagle Claw Pro Staff Winners in Canada

Posted in: News From Chris, Nitro

I got a nice update from one of our favorite Pros this weekend from Ontario Canada. Shaun does a great job for us and his partner Stacey can hold her own with any of the boys up there.

Just thought I would forward on a quick update. My partner, Stacey and I won a recent tournament down by Kingston, Ontario on the Bay of Quinte. It was a big one-day event with 130+ teams and some big names up here in Ontario including one you may know “Bob Izumi”. At any rate we narrowly took the win with 20.56lbs of Large Mouth beating second place by 0.16lbs.

On this day I really became a big fan of the Nitro Gravy. All my fish came on Jigs soaked with garlic gravy. I’m sure that made a definite difference. We watched 2 other boats work a small section of shoreline 30 minutes before we got there and I boated a 5.3, 3.15 and a 3.3lb. They were throwing jigs as well…

It’s nice on stage because the tournament director keeps us up there for an extended period trying to promote women fishing. So every time we’re up there we get lots of talk time. We are now the second co-ed team to win this year showing that women can compete with the boys on the water.
