Fishing at the Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship is underway.
One hundred teams are taking part, including defending champions Bryan Gustafson and Brian McNanney.
Boats left the Sorting Gap Marina this morning.
The first will return by 3:30 p.m. for the afternoon weigh-ins.
The weather had an impact on local sports last night.
Mud Dogs and Couchicing Raiders tried to get their Rainy River District Women’s Fastball League game in but ended up calling it a tie.
