William Hope Wins the Southwest City Bass Club Tournament on Lake Maumelle
Story provided by William Hope
The club visited Lake Maumelle this month. Great weather with water temperatures in the high 50’s and a nice breeze for most of the day turned out to be good fishing for the club as several limits crossed the scale and several big fish.
1st Place - William Hope - 15.86 pounds
William caught his fish on a Lucky Craft crankbaits and War Eagle spinnerbaits in the wind.
2nd Place - Chris Whitem - 10.68 pounds
Chris commented that he caught his fish on crankbaits
3rd Place - Gayle Jones - 9.62 pounds
Gayle fished with William and threw the “Kitchen Sink” pattern at Lake Maumelle by throwing Jerkbaits, Spinnerbaits, and Crankbaits. It seemed like everything he picked up caught a fish and Gayle put a limit in the boat early.
4th Place - Bob Howard - 8.65 pounds
Bob threw a spinnerbait in the grass to take the last spot in the money.
Big Bass - Gayle Jones - 5.43 pounds
Gayle caught this Lake Maumelle Monster on a jerkbait, in an area that produced several 3 and 4 pound fish.
