Early Morning Bite Puts Tim Johnston in Lead on Noxon
Some anglers in the 2014 B.A.S.S. Nation Western Divisional worked all day to eke out a limit on Montana’s Noxon Reservoir. But not Tim Johnston. He did it in an hour and a half.

Humility Served Daily at the Bianchi Cup
Humility, hu·mil·i·ty, noun, The quality or condition of being humble; modest opinion or estimate of one's own importance, rank, etc.
