Nevertheless, participants eagerly gave our event their best efforts, including this team of (from left) Bob Glass and Randy Conkle, who claimed the 1st-place prize with a five-fish total weight of 11.67 lbs. Bob also garnered big-fish honors with a 4.91-lb. bass.
Walking away with 2nd-place money today was Mark London, with a sack of five fish that tipped the scales at 11.34 lbs. His big fish weighed 2.90 lbs. I also should note here that Mark is our 2014 Angler of the Year, with a grand total weight for the year of 168.35 lbs. Runners-up for the AOY award were Bob Glass (last year's winner) and his partner, Randy Conkle, who finished the year with a grand total weight of 159.04 lbs.
