Lance and Richard caught a limit early on a Texas-rigged Gitzit and spinnerbait, but were able to upgrade later in the day with a Rattletrap. They stayed on the lower end of the lake and caught 10 keepers during the tournament.
2nd - Danny and Sharon Waldo - 5 bass - 18.43 pounds - $550.00
Danny and Sharon's bag included the day's big bass, a 6.46 pound "toad" that earned them an additional $125. All of their fish were caught on Lucky Craft Pointer 100 jerkbaits in Cane Creek. They caught 9 keepers on the day.
Zach and Shawn caught their fish on XR-50 Excalibur lipless crankbaits (1/2 oz.) and Booyah HD spinnerbaits (3/4 oz.). They started their day in the mid-lake area and worked their way back downriver. They caught 8 keepers on the day.
