2025 Battle of Ohio

October 14, 2025 John Ringenbach

It was a hard-fought competition, with 37 anglers duking it out in the BATTLE FOR OHIO Online Tournament, and in the end, Troy Oliver emerged victorious! 16 anglers logged at least one muskie over 30 inches, and of the 35 fish submitted, Troy caught the longest at 48 inches and had the highest scoring limit of three fish totaling 56.75 points! Andrew George landed some great fish as well, scoring 53 points to earn a second place finish, and Scott Donohew won third with a 50.5 point limit! Troy, Andrew, and Scott will be presented with their trophies and Six2Noon baits at our awards banquet. Congrats to our winners, and to all who put a muskie on the board in the BATTLE! There were some really nice fish caught in the BATTLE, with 21 of the 35 fish logged measuring 40 inches or better, and 14 of those reaching the 42 inch Huskie mark! Thank you to all BATTLE participants and we look forward to seeing everyone in-person on November 1st for the Lungefest Tournament at Salt Fork.
