Chris Keele and Billy Albert Win on Lake Dardanelle!!!
Story by Terrance Narveson
The Get5Bass Winter Series North division Tournament on Dardanelle was welcomed with a breezy northwestern wind and 34 boats to hit the lake for their second tournament this season. Only 20 boats were able to bring in a fish on this tough day, but it was the team of Albert/Keele that took the top spot with 16.07lbs.
1st place 16.07lbs Billy Albert/Chris Keele They fished around main lake points to catch their fish but it was a point late in the day that produced three of their final keepers. The fish were caught on a mixture of lures (crankbaits, jigs, and jerkbaits)
2nd Place 15.74lbs Jared Allen/Wayne Dixon It was a day of trial and error and they had to throw everything they had in their boat to catch their fish. Their fish were caught on the lower end of the lake.
3rd Place 15.73lbs Danny & Sharon Waldo They were up in the Piney Bay area and ended up catching their fish around the bridges on jigs. They caught a bunch of fish but were never able to get any kickers.
The next Nortern Division tournament is January 9th on Greers Ferry out of Devils Fork Ramp. January 2nd we will be on Lake Ouachita at Crystal Springs Ramp for the third tournament in the southern division.
