Anglers Test the Waters

Pre-fishing for anglers completing in the Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship continues today.

Joe Thrun of Annandale, Minnesota won last year's title with teammate Jim Moynagh, and says its a chance to find out what will work when the tournament kicks into high gear Thursday.

"That's what practise if for," says Thrun, "come out here three, four, five days ahead of time and try to figure out what type of baits they're on, what kind of water there in and try to figure it out."

About 125 teams are entered.

Organizers says they will accept new teams up until Wednesday's rules meeting at 5:00 p.m.
