Aug. 11, 2012 Stateline Bass Anglers Tourney






                      
                      The wind did blow...














and the water did rise...







but that didn't stop the Stateline Bass Anglers from holding their scheduled monthly club tournament today out of West Landing Marina.




The contest included 21 anglers fishing out of 11 boats. Walking away with 1st place in today's event was the team of Rex Shell and Kevin Mills, with a total weight of 16.563 lbs. Second place went to the team of Daniel Little and Jason House, with a total weight of 10.875 lbs. Finishing in third place was the team of Mark Ingram and Bob Clarkson, with a total weight of 9.875 lbs. The day's lunker award went to Jason House, with a bass that tipped the scales at 4.3 lbs.

Here's how the rest of the anglers finished:
     4th place, Sean Hopkins & Mike Moretz, 8.188 lbs.
     5th place (tie), Nelson Anderson & David Dozier and Ronnie & Chandler McLaughlin,
          7.875 lbs.
     6th place, Chris & Sean Vitovich, 6.813 lbs.
     7th place, Robert Stamey & Dave Hales, 6.800 lbs.
     8th place, Dale Waggoner & Eddie Confer, 6.438 lbs.
     9th place, John Goodman & Jeremy Gatewood, 5.438 lbs.
     10th place, Brian Skeens, 3.438 lbs.

Before leaving the tourney site today, I heard that the first-place team caught all their fish early this morning in West Neck Creek--I'm still waiting, however, for Kevin to confirm or deny that report. In any event, here's a photo of him (left) and Rex (right) with their five-fish limit:




As if the wind and high water weren't enough, the day had to end with some rain, as indicated in most of the following random photos:
