On Saturday, March 13th, fourteen teams competed in the His Mission Bass Tournament at Grand Bayou. The teams began fishing at daylight when the temperature was in the upper 50s. By the afternoon, the temperature was in the upper 70s. Just before 2 pm, boats began returning to the boat launch with their catch for the weigh in. Most importantly, the bass tournament raised $280 for His Mission, a local non-profit multi-denominational team of men and women who do projects for the betterment of the community. Here are the final results of the tournament:
