Louthian/Muse Take Day One Lead at the H&W Classic
Tournament on Lake Dardanelle




















       Robert Louthian and Tammie Muse lead day one with 16.34 pounds

The 27 teams that qualified to fish the H&W Classic on Lake Dardanelle
were greeted with ferocious thunderstorms that contained winds in
excess of 50 mph today; but that didn't stop the fish from biting - as 16
teams brought their limit of 5 bass to the scales. The team of Robert
Louthian and Tammie Muse took the day one lead by brining 5 bass to the
scales that weighed 16.34 pounds. "We caught at least 19 keepers today"
said Muse. "We just kept chunking and winding a 1/4 oz. spinnerbait - It
was really a no brainer" added Muse. Tammie and Robert will definitely
have to catch a good sack of fish tomorrow to maintain their lead, as
several teams are within striking distance. Here is a look at the rest of the
top 5:

2nd place - Steve Heflin/Jacob Wilson - 5 Bass - 15.11 pounds

3rd place - Paul Glover/James Stafford - 5 Bass - 14.55 pounds

Paul and James bag included the day's big
bass, a 5.15 pound "mule" that was caught
on the first cast of the day. "We are in the
right position to make a run at winning
tomorrow - but I think the post-frontal
conditions will make the fishing tougher
tomorrow" said Glover.
