Only 2 More Big-Bass Tourneys Left This Season

That's the word from tourney director John Goodman, after telling me in an email that only three anglers in two boats showed up at Bob's Fishing Hole this morning for event No. 11.

The winner of today's contest was Brian Skeens (pictured in the foreground, right), who brought a bass to the scales weighing 2 lbs. even. His competitors in the other boat were Jim Sumrell and Cathy Brandt, who developed motor troubles and ended up having to hitch a tow with Brian. They didn't have a fish to weigh.

Both of the remaining Goody's Big Bass contests are slated for Bob's Fishing Hole. Event No. 12 is scheduled to take place Sunday, Feb. 23, and event No. 13 is slated for Sunday, March 2. Both tournaments will run from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The angler currently poised to walk away with all the cash in the End-of-Year Pot from this series is Mark Ingram. Back in the tournament held Dec. 22, Mark weighed in a bass that tipped the scales at 4.04 lbs.
