Greg Grace and Jared Allen Win on Lake Dardanelle!!!
Story by Terrance Narveson
33 Boats showed up at Dardnanelle Bay for the Third Annual Plainview Firemans Tournament. It was a day with strong cold winds but it did not deter the fish from biting as 13 teams brought in a limit. It was a grudge match for those who had fish as the average weight for the teams with limits were in the 14 - 16 lb range. At least 4 fish over 6lbs were brought in and it took 18lbs to win. Jared Allen and Greg Grace barely took 1st place with 18.39 pounds, and this is 3 weeks in a row the Jared has put a win notch on his belt. When your hot your hot so lets see how he did it again this week:
1st Place 18.39lbs - Jared Allen/Greg Grace They ran to the big pit and slugged out another impressive limit with the Jackall Squirrel 79DD. Five fish were all they could come up with in the pit but a move to the main lake gave them another keeper to cull one of the small ones.
2nd place
2nd Place 18.33lbs - Brandon Lee/Scott Lee They ran up river fishing shallow laydowns in prespawn areas. Brandon and his dad only had 4 fish but they also had the days big bass a 7.09 Swamp Donkey. He commented they had their limit fish on twice but had some poor execution to getting it into the boat.
3rd place
3rd Place 16.88lbs - David James/Rex Rose It was the Jackall Squirrel 79DD that gave them all their fish and they just happened to be fishing right by Jared and Greg. Rex commented that the bite was slow and you had to fish the squirrel real slow and it was a bite every once and a while. They caught 7 keepers on the day and had their last fish by 11:00am.
