Day Two on Erie cancelled

Forecast of high winds and high waves on Lake Erie forces Day Two cancellation of Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Northern Open.

Tournament director Chris Bowes just sent out a mass email to the anglers:

 

Due to a daybreak forecast of north winds of 15-25 MPH and wave heights 5-7 ft., Day 2 of the BPS Bassmaster Open is postponed until Sat. A full field will fish on Sat. Same day 2 partners. Tournament waters are off limits tomorrow.

 

These conditions are unsafe for Lake Erie, and in the interest of safety postponement was the best decision.

 

This means:

 

1.       Full field on Saturday

2.       No Bass Pro Shops weigh-in

3.       Lakeside weigh-in at Selby Street boat ramp at 3 p.m. Saturday

4.       Champion crowned on Saturday after two competition days
