Chris Stinnett and Spencer Shuffield Win on DeGray Lake!!!
Spencer Shuffield and Chris Stinnett topped 42 teams fishing the 2nd Get5Bass Winter Series Tournament of the season by catching 5 bass that tipped the scales at 16.75 pounds. The bite was tougher than expected, and only 7 teams brought their 5 bass limits to the scales. Here's how the top three teams caught their fish:
Spencer and Chris had an excellent day on the water and caught approximately 15 keepers on the day. They relied on a deep bite, as all of their fish were caught on jigs (green pumpkin) fished around rock piles in 20 feet of water.
Johnny and Rusty relied on two different patterns to catch their fish. Two of their bass were caught on Rattletraps fished shallow, and 3 of their keepers were caught on jigs fished in deep water.
Adam and Don "Big Show" Vining caught their sack on a variety of lures. Jerkbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs all put fish in the boat. Their sack included the day's big bass, a 7.54 pound "Dino-pig" which earned them an additional $200.
