Series Tournament on Lake Dardanelle
Zach King and Shawn Gordon topped 30 teams fishing the fourth
Get5Bass Summer Series Event of 2008 by catching 5 bass that
21.41 pounds. Along with their first place check of $600.00, Zach
also qualified for $3,000.00 through the Skeeter Real Money
Program. This week's event was sponsored by Fletcher Oil and
Ridout Lumber. Here's how the top 3 teams caught their fish:
1st Place - 21.41lbs - Zach King/Shawn Gordon - $600.00
Zach and Shawn ran up the river to Shoal bay and were flipping
YUM Wooly Bug's in the mats. Their fish came off the floating mats
in Shoal bay, Troughlin, and outside Piney Bay using Quantum Pt
reels with 7'6" Quantum PT rods with 65lb Suffix Braid to get the
fish out of the mats. They had only 5 keepers on the night, but lost
two more giant fish that never got out of the mats. Along with
wining the tournament they also won the Skeeter Real Money
which was valued at $3000 as they were fishing out of Zach's new
20i Skeeter.
2nd Place 16.67lbs - Mark Flecther/Rusty Allen
Mark and Rusty were running and gunning on brush piles all
evening.They didn't catch many fish only bringing 4 fish to the
scales but it was enough to get them second. They were throwing
worms and jigs in the brush to catch their fish this evening.
3rd Place 16.44lbs - Bryce Smith/Eric Shattford
They were keying on roadbeds with jigs and crankbaits. The bite
was only good while there was still daylight and as soon as it got
dark the bite shut off. They did not catch another keeper after it got
dark.
Big Bass: Robert Dunn/Charlie Lawrence - 7.07 pounds - $100
Robert and Charlie caught the day's big bass, a 7.07 pound
"hawg" that earned them a Dobyns Rod ($170.00 value) in addition
to their $100 check.
