Story by Terrance Narveson
Thirty couples came out to fish this Sunday and the one thing every angler got was plenty of sunshine for the day but it was the team of Will and Roberta Cranston that found the honey hole and cooled the day off with a great sack of fish to get the win. Here is what they did to catch their fish.
1st Place - Will and Roberta Cranston - 20.42lbs and Big Bass (5.52lbs)
Will and Roberta started out at Goose Island and caught 2 keepers but were able to cull those fish once they pulled out to deep water humps where they threw Carolina-rig lizards. To see Get5's Video with Will and Roberta, Click Here
