Tray Huddleston and Robbie Chavers Win the Get5Bass Winter Series Tournament on Lake Dardanelle
Huddleston and Chavers find the monsters to take the win on Dardanelle
Story provided by Terrance Narveson
18 boats came out for the second Winter Series Tournament on Lake Dardanelle. With the cold weather starting to settle in, some anglers may have been too bundled up to feel the bite. There were only 7 limits brought in but quality made up for the lack of numbers. Most of the anglers talked about dropping water having an effect on their fishing areas. However, it seemed the top two finishers really found the hot spot as they caught most of their fish within sight of each other. Here is what they did to stroke them on a relatively tough day.
1st - Tray Huddleston/ Robbie Chavers - 5 bass - 22.40 pounds - $700.00 They caught all their fish on the MegaBass 110 jerkbaits. They also topped the big bass with a 5.55lb Dardanelle Sloth.
2nd - Wayne Dixon/Jared Allen - 5 bass - 21.38 pounds - $440.00 The jig bite was their go to bait and they stuck with it to catch all their fish late in the day for another great sack of fish.

3rd - Kevin Short/Steve Howard - 5 bass - 18.83 pounds - $260.00 They were throwing the mixed variety of jerkbaits (Megabass 110, Pointers, and Norman Razor Minnows). Kevin commented that they caught 12 keepers for the day and that the Jerkbait bite on Dardanelle is really starting to fire up.
Here is the top 10 finishers. Points will be updated soon.
4th Charles Williams/Doyle Arbaugh - 17.93lbs - $200 5th Derwin Thomas/Joshua Thomas - 13.72lbs - $100 6th Donnie Cobb/Ladd Shannoon -12.99lbs 7th Shawn Gordon/Zach King - 12.71lbs 8th Steve & Jason Squires - 12.66lbs 9th Brandon Lee/Richard Wood - 11.87lbs
