The heat, miserable humidity and the slow bite seemed to keep a few of
the regular anglers away last night. There were just twenty-nine
teams ignoring all the negatives that launched out of PB#2 for the
Missouri Angler Wednesday Night Tournament.
There were only ten limits brought to the scales and only five limits weighed. Bass fishing has slowed down since the water temperature has neared the 90 degree mark. Not that the bass aren't biting, it's just a little tougher trying to locate the larger bass four pounds or bigger in three and a half hours.
There were six bass four pounds or better and only one bass weighing 5.09 pounds, which was big bass of the tournament. Quite a difference from the previous tournaments. Regardless of the tough bite, the top four teams had nice weights ranging from sixteen to nineteen pounds.
Rick Butler and Bruce Lowrance claimed fourth place with a limit that weighed 16.59 pounds, however they received a one pound deduction for a dead fish dropping their official weight to 15.59 pounds.
Free entry for next week's Missouri Angler Wednesday Night Tournament was drawn by the team of Jeff Beauchamp and Winn Stevens.
