AFTER ANOTHER WEEKEND SERIES TOURNAMENT THE NEW POINT LEADERS ARE PAUL JOLLY AND WES THOMAS WITH 430 POINTS. THEY HAVE A NARROW GAP OVER KELLY HOOK AND BRAD MOSER WITH 427 POINTS. WE HAVE A CLOSE ONE GOING ON FOR THIRD WITH A 3 WAY TIE BETWEEN TODD ASHER & TODD SCHMITZ, ROBERT GILLILAND JR. & SR., LEWIS MALLORY & MIKE QUINLIN ALL WITH 412 POINTS. AS OF THE PATOKA 3 TOURNAMENT WITH ROCKY POINT COMING UP THE CUT IS AT CURT HUGHES & SCOTT MICHELL WITH 153 POINTS. LOOKS AS THOUGH THIS IS GOING DOWN TO THE WIRE WITH MANY GOOD RIVER FISHERMEN UP IN THE TOP. THIS SHOULD MAKE FOR AN INTERESTING WEIGH IN WOULDN’T YOU THINK.
WE HAD A BROKE DOWN BOAT AT THE END OF THE TOURNAMENT WHEN THE BAD STORM STARTED TO COME UP AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK DONNY HOLDEN FOR WEIGHING HIS FISH IN AND GOING AFTER THE TEAM THAT WAS STRANDED. HE THEN PULLED THEM TO A RAMP FOR THERE PARTNER TO PICK THEM UP. THIS SHOWS A GOOD FELLOWSHIP AMONG OUR COMPETITORS AND THANKS FROM ME DONNY FOR YOUR HELP.
ALSO I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ALL OF YOU TO GIVE BRUCE MATHEWS A LITTLE ROOM IN YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS WITH HIS RECENT HEALTH PROBLEMS. BRUCE HAS DONE A LOT FOR THE SPORT OF FISHING AND A LOT OF YOU FISHERMAN. WISH YOU THE BEST AND HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON BRUCE YOU’LL BE IN MANY PRAYERS I’M SURE.
OUR NEXT TOURNAMENT WILL BE THE ROCKY POINT TOURNAMENT ON AUGUST 28, 2010. OUR MEETING WILL BE AT BIG TALES AGAIN THIS YEAR. THE BIG TALES BIG BASS AWARD AND $250.00 SO FAR IS 7.48 LBS. AND CAUGHT BY JEFF HAFFT & MIKE HOLMAN. GOOD LUCK TOPPING THAT AT ROCKY POINT GUYS. SEE YOU THERE.
WE SURE HAD AN EXCITTING MORNING JUST BEFORE TAKE OFF WITH ALL THE LIGHTNING AND RAIN BUT AFTER 30 MINUTES OR SO OF STORMS WE GOT THINGS ROLLING. I ONLY HAD TO START ABOUT 10 MINUTES EARLY AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL OF YOU FOR BEING PATIENT AND GETTING THRU THE BOAT CHECK QUICKLY ONCE WE DID GET STARTED.
CONGRADULATIONS TO CHARLES BEATTY & DAVID MILLS FOR THERE CATCH OF 23.72LBS.FOR 1ST PLACE. 2ND PLACE WENT TO THE TEAM OF BUTCH BENNIFIELD & CHARLIE HENTRUP WITH 19.12LBS. FOR THE DAY.3RD WENT TO RON EICHER & ED SNOOK WITH 16.10 LBS AGAIN. RON RECENTLY FINISHED 3RD ALSO HERE AT PATOKA WITH THE WEEKEND SERIES TOURNAMENT. OUR BIG BASS WINNERS WERE BOB AIKMAN & KEVIN BOLDING WITH A BASS THAT WEIGHED 5.82 LBS. AND THEY ALSO RECEIVED A PLAQUE FROM SUTTERFIELDS FOR THERE FISH. THE SECOND BIG BASS SPONSORED BY HONEY CREEK TACKLE AND BASS BOAT SAVERS $100 AWARD AND A BOTTLE OF BASS BOAT SAVER.
WE ARE SEEING A VERY GOOD WEIGH IN FROM THE SENIORS AGAIN WITH ALL BUT 2 TEAMS NOT CATCHING BASS TO WEIGH IN. OUR NEW POINTS LEADER IS WES THOMAS AND DAVE OVERSTREET WITH A NARROW LEAD OVER GREG RUDE & RICK SHEEKS. WES THOMAS IS NOW LEADING IN THE SENIORS AND THE WEEKEND SERIES. WES SAYS BEING CONSISTANT IS THE KEY.
WE HAVE 2 TOURNAMENTS LEFT SO THIS SHOULD COME DOWN TO THE WIRE ON THE POINTS CHASE. WE WILL BE AT GIEST ON 8/11/10 SO GET YOUR ENTRIES IN AND GET READY. THANKS FOR ALL WHO PARTICIPATED AND HOPE TO SEE ALL OF YOU SOON. GOOD LUCK FISHING TO ALL.
