Stauber/Harris Win Super Team Tournament on the
Arkansas River
Mike Harris and Marty Stauber won the tournament, but they
had a little help from "MJ" when showing them off.
The final tournament of Vince Miller's Super Team trail took place Sunday on the
Arkansas River out of the Little Rock Pool (Pool 6). The 48 teams were greeted
with blazing hot temperatures, high humidity, and almost no river flow to speak
of -but plenty of bass were brought to the scales. Here's how the top 5 teams
caught their fish:
1st place - Marty Stauber/Mike Harris - 5 bass - 13.64 pounds
Marty and Mike stayed in Pool 6 and had 4 of their 5 keepers in the boat by 6:45
AM. They were tossing crankbaits early, and lost a good fish in their morning
flurry that they thought would cost them the tournament. They landed 6 keepers
throughout the day and were able to cull a 13" Kentcuky at 2:30 PM, When Marty
landed a good keeper largemouth on a Tsunami swimbait in bleeding shad color.
Their first place finish was worth $5,000.00. They also added $360.00 for the
day's second big bass - which weighed 3.98 pounds.
2nd place - Terry Hopson/Teddy Bogart - 5 bass - 13.22 pounds
Terry and Teddy locked through
to the Pine Bluff Pool (Pool 4) and
through a jig n' frog around
brushpiles. They caught a 3-pounder
when they got back to Pool 6,
which enabled them to upgrade their
limit. They took home $700.00 for
their efforts.
Teddy Bogard and Terry Hopson
3rd place - Brandon Rhoden/Duke Gunnell - 5 bass - 12.97 pounds
Brandon and Duke also locked through to the Pine
Bluff Pool, where they concentrated on sand drops
to catch 8 keeper fish throughout the day. They used
Carolina-rigged Baby Brush Hogs to help them take
the third place prize of $550.00.
Brandon Rhoden
Brandon and Duke also
clinched the "Team of the
Year" Title, which is awarded

Zoom trick worms on jigheads. Their
4th place finish earned them $410.00
Fred Martin and Chris Phillips
5th place - Paul Sarna/Joey Hurley - 4 bass - 9.45 pounds

late in the day on a spook that would have been
their limit fish. They earned $400. $400.00.
