LSMC Fall Tournament Results On Sunday, September 20, The Lake Shelbyville Muskie Club held its annual fall tournament on Lake Shelbyville. The tournament marked the beginning of the second half of the 2009 Illinois Muskie Tournament Trail. Fourteen teams went out to satisfy their hunger for catching muskie. After almost two weeks of sunny, dry, fall weather, the weather for the day was cloudy, damp, and cooler, with air and water temperatures both hovering in the middle seventies. A good number of the teams raised muskie, with seven being caught, measured, and released, to fight another day. All fish caught were done so, by casting assorted crank baits and spinner baits. The team of John Phillips and Tim Garner took first place by catching three fish (37”, 36.25”, 37.5”). Mike Witowski and Jim Beaty caught two muskie (34.5”, 36”) to earn second place. John Forsyth (39.5”) and Jim Kelly, took third place, edging out Tom Humrickhouse (38”) and Don Gibbs . LSMC member John Forsyth’s 39.5” beauty was the largest fish caught in the tournament. Participants, to a person, commented about how much they enjoyed the day, and how glad they were to be back in the hunt again.
