Iowa State Junior Championship.
On June 25th 2011 The Iowa Bass Federation Nation (IBFN) hosted the IBFN state youth championship at Prairie du Chien pool 10 on the Mississippi river. A great group of 20 youth participated with each youth assigned by draw with a volunteer who provided a boat and guided each of the youth. The tournament is divided into two age groups 11 – 14 and 15 – 18.

The older group was won by Josh Miller of Lisbon, Iowa representing the Cedar Rapids Junior Bassmasters. Josh had a total weight of 10lbs and 3ozs. He also caught the big bass in his age group with a bass weighing 2lbs and 14ozs.

The younger age group was won by Hunter Reifschneider of Marion, Iowa. He also is a member of the Cedar Rapids Junior Bassmasters. His winning weight was 10lbs. and 1oz. Hunter also won big bass in his age group with a bass weighing 3lbs. and 11ozs.

Both winners are now invited to participate in the Northern Division BASS Tournament in August at Ft. Madison. They will fish with the 1st alternate for the state team and their weights will be added to the state team score.

A great big thank you goes out to all those youth who participated, the boaters who volunteered their boats and guide service to these youth. Another big thank you to all the friends, relatives and volunteers whose efforts made this tournament possible by their labor and support.
