Lake Henderson
7-24-10
First of all I would like to welcome our new member Glenn Wilson who will be fishing with Godwin since it seems Mike Taylor will be out for a little while. Again we all wish a speedy recovery to Mike and hope he can join us soon.
Second and most disturbing we had no limits brought to the scales for the second tournament in a row? I know it has been extremely hot, and then add a tropical depression, full moon and a new lake we have not fished. It is nice to have a new lake to try and all seemed to like the lake layout and structures we fished, but it was definately a challenge. And to think Phil accused me of picking this lake because he thought I knew it like the back of my hand. Even though I explained it has been 10 plus years since I fished he thought I was playing my trump card. Steve and I zeroed and had no keeper fish. So much for our trump card. We caught a lot of small bass and from what I heard so did everyone else. Just could not get the big fish bite. Heard a few big ones were hooked, but the big fish won.
Mike Touchton brought a sub to fish with him so I would like to say thanks to Tommy Ziessman for fishing with our club. He informed me he has been freshwater fishing twice. Once was on Friday 7-23-10 to pre-fish and the second was on tournament day. After the tough day we had it might be the last time he freshwater fishes.
There were a whopping total of 9 bass brought to the scales with total weight of 15.53lbs.
First Place with 3 bass and total weight of 5.73lbs goes to Mike Touchton and Tommy Ziessman
Secon Place with 2 bass and total weight of 3.94lbs goes to Phil and Darrell
Third Place with 2 bass and total weight of 2.90lbs goes to Malcolm amd Josh
Big Bass weighing in at 2.68lbs goes to Phil and Darrell
Congrats to all!
Next tournament will be on August 28th at Lake Walk in Water
Hope To See You All There!
Mike
