This is a great benefit tournament supporting The March of Dimes


-LEANDER— Three years ago, a Leander mom gave birth to her only child after merely 29 weeks of pregnancy. Little Bryson Richarte weighed just 2 pounds, 13 ounces, making him one of over half a million infants born too soon every year in the United States. As a preemie, Bryson faced an increased risk of lifelong health problems, but thanks in part to the March of Dimes, the leading non-profit organization for pregnancy and baby health, he is now a “thriving 3-year-old,” said his mom, Lindsey Richarte. Lindsey and her husband, Scott Richarte, started Bassin’ for Babies, a fishing tournament, to give back to March of Dimes.

Glad to hear that. That's what it's all about. Tim and I had a great time. Thanks for putting this on and looking forward to next year!

 

Thanks Lindsay for hosting this tourney. Our day started badly with losing a 3+ and one over 6. After a few more hours and one small keeper we found a wind blow shoreline and it was on. We had 14# within 30 minutes and continued to cull ounces. All in all it was a great and peaceful day until the ride back to the weigh in.
