Coleman and Grizzle Win March CBA Event
The March CBA event was held March 21st at Chester Frost Park. This event was sponsored by Asher’s Hardwood Flooring. The CBA would like to thank Chris Asher for coming on board with the CBA for the 2009 season and sponsoring the March event. There were 81 teams that fished this month and we were able to pay cash and prizes through 60 places.
The team of Chris Coleman and Chris Grizzle had the winning bag of fish weighing 31.82# to take the win and the first place check for $2,000.00. The win qualifies them for the 2009 Sportsmans Warehouse Classic Championship if they fish at least 7 of the open tournament months.

The next CBA will be the Nichols Marine April Open on April 19th. The temperatures are getting warmer and the fish are moving around providing several different patterns to catch some great stringers. We would like to invite all area anglers to participate with us on the 18th. We would like to also thank all our sponsors that make our tournament format possible. Please support our sponsors whenever possible.
