Seven Coves Bass Club celebrated its 18th year of the Fall Bass Classic charity tournament, October 11th, 2025, on Lake Conroe. Hosted by Stow-A-Way Marina and Rv Park, the annual tournament again benefited the Kids Unlimited Foundation. Kids Unlimited (kidsunlimited.org) was founded as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization formed to benefit children stricken with cancer. This organization as founded with the hope to provide children a reprise from cancer and an opportunity to be free of the harsh treatment regimen. Through these efforts, Kids Unlimited joins over 250 families together for consistent family-oriented activities.
This year we had 30 angler teams participate. The team of Julian Clepper & Randy Gunter bested the field with only 4-fish for 27.82, anchored by a 10.44 Big Bass. 1st place awarded them $1,745, along with and additional $1,000 for Big Bass. This was the second year in a row that they had Big Bass for the Fall Bass Classic.
Second place went to last years winners, Dusty Schultz & Rusty Lawson with a 5-fish limit for 20.25 lbs. This earned them a check for $920.
3rd – Colin Bode/Mark Goetzman - 19.63 - $625
4th - Jerry & Hillary Watson - 17.47 - $250, also had 2nd BB for 8.46 - Ark Rods
1st Place, 2nd Place, & Big Bass Winners were presented plaques donated by Burks Creations.
We are working on the final numbers, but we are certain that the event was a great success. We will present the final check at the annual Kids Unlimited "Kid Fish" event at Fayette County lake, held on next Saturday, Oct. 18th, with many kids and families present.
The success of this annual event is not possible without our sponsors, anglers, the community, and their support through their participation and donations.
