Chasing the Iowa Bass Trail
Chasing the Iowa Bass Trail

Look for Team Iowa Sportsman to compete at the following events during June & July!

  • Saturday, May 31st, Brushy Creek HAWGZ Tournament
  • Wednesday, June 4th at Union Grove Lake, Tri-County Bass Club
  • Wednesday, July 2nd at Hickory Grove, Tri County Bass Club
  • Saturday, July 27th at West Okoboji HAWGZ Tournament

Winter is still trying to keep things cool in Iowa and has made the fishing for many bass anglers difficult. The success rate has been spotty with some fishermen finding a few quality fish to weigh in, while others have struggled to consistently put quality fish in the live well. Finally things are starting to warm up, water temps are increasing and largemouth activity has greatly increased. For many of us, it's about time! May 4th found the Iowa Sportsman Fishing team on 3-Mile Lake, just north of Afton, Iowa. We were fishing post frontal conditions and found the fish in a semi-negative mood. However, many teams found active bass and weighed some great limits!
