An overcast morning qickly turned to clear skies and light breeze. The breeze dies around 11 am and came back at weigh-in time.

First place went to Hunter Crossland and George Janca with an impressive five fish limit that was just under 30 pounds. At 29.72 lbs. their bag included twin 8 1/2 pounders. The big one was 8.53 lbs. They took home $1472 for the bag and $110 for big bass. Not a bad day on Hubbard Creek.

Second place went to a consistant pair of local guys, Mike Schooler and Randy White. Their five fish limit went 20.30 lbs with a 7.81 kicker. Mike caught the big fish 15 minutes before weigh-in. As Iconelli would say “Never give up!!”. They got their entry fee back for their efforts.

An overcast day presented great fishing conditions, not necessarily good biting conditions.

The Team of Tom Rieger & Jon Sewell brought a five fish limit to the scales that weighed 18.32 lbs with a 6.75 lb kicker good enough for first place and big bass of the event. Congratulations gentlemen.

Second place went to the team of Elton Brock & Jason Geesey with a five fish limit that weighed 15.19 lbs. Their big fish weighed 4.14 lbs.

An overcast day presented great fishing conditions, not necessarily good biting conditions.

The Team of Elton Brock and Jason Geesey brought a five fish limit to the scales that weighed 15.19 lbs with a 4.14 lb kicker. Good enough for first place and a check for $712.

At safe light we headed to the Dam area, and there were about 20 boats competing for the water there, we caught a couple of non-keepers and decided to leave the crowd. We headed to the mid lake area and were looking for bream beds, finding those in the coves we were able to catch some additional fish that would be great fish anywhere else but were just short of 16 inches. As the morning progressed, we moved to the boat docks where we landed the majority of our keepers with brush hogs. We left a few in the lake that got tangled up or broke off, but overall, it was a great day with lots of fish being caught. The presentation was the key – very slow and had to coax them into biting, with multiple casts.

Second place went to the local Team of Brian Jones and Matt Russell. Also with five fish that weighed 14.47 lbs. They also had the big fish of the event that went 4.29 lbs.
