Overall Team Results
Overall Big Bass Results
We had four days of great weather for the Team State Championship at Cedar Creek Reservoir sponsored by Gun Barrel City! Seventies in the mornings gave way to ninties in the afternoon but the fish cooperated and fourty six teams were game for the two day derby.
The angler briefing Thursday evening went well at a very nice venue, CR Legacy Event Center. The Event Center staff served chicken fried steak, vegetables and peach cobbler for dessert. The meal was a hit!! Team of The Year plaques were awarded to the top Team in each of five Regions.
Those Teams that found fish did well both days. The Team of Kazuki Kitajima & Kentaro Yamate topped the field after two days of competition with a total weight of 34.87 lbs. Their ten fish two day total also included the big bass of the event of 7.85 lbs. Kazuki caught that beauty on day one. This was the second time this team had fished Cedar Creek so congratulations to them for figurin things out quickly!! These guys will represent Texas at the National Team Championship December 3-6 on Lake Hartwell out of Anderson, SC.
Second place went to the Team of Trevor Romans & David Rush. Their two day ten fish limit went 33.94 lbs and qualified them for the trip to South Carolina. This Team qualified to go to the National Championship last year but did not make it due to health complications. They plan to be on Lake Hartwell in December!
Third place in the Team State Championship went to the Team of James Seymour & Casey Garcia with a two day ten fish limit that weighed 31.64 lbs. These guys were the standby team last year and filled in when Trevor & David couldnt make it. They will go again this year to the National Championship. Congratutlations gentlemen! Consistent performance pays off.
Fourth place and the last Team to qualify for the National Team Championship was the Team of Terry Anderson & Curtis Daniels with a two day ten fish limit that went 30.15 lbs. Congratulations to them as well on advancing!
