Donuts and coffee were provided to the anglers before the tournament take off and hot dogs and refreshments during the weigh in. Although some mentioned the bite was tough with bluebird skies other reported a good bite. There were 17 teams that weighed in fish. There were 10 teams that had a 5 bag limit. Several mentioned they caught 15 or more bass but didn’t get the bigger bite that was needed. Many reported catching the bass on jerkbaits and jigs. Other Bassing Bob Unique Payouts Slot Prize was awarded to Wayne Fitzpatrick and David Poort for weighing 5 bass at 11.36lbs.
