From
L to R: 3rd, Ryan Christoffer; 2nd & Big Bass, Jeremia Matz;
1st, Ken Warren.
This
tournament got off to a late start due to lightning storms moving
through the area and once these were gone the launch occurred about
1 hour late and found both water and air temperatures had fallen
from the day before. The rest of the day was overcast and rained on
and off.
First place went to visiting
director Ken Warren from Olin, IA. Despite the poor weather Ken's
spots held up and he culled through a couple limits to bring in the
winning sack of 5 largemouth weighing 11.65lbs. He reported he
caught about a dozen keepers and the majority were caught on a River
FINatic Spinnerbait and the rest on an green pumpkin candy Invader
Jig both from Strictly Bass Lures. His fish all came off of rocks
with grass and wood on it. Ken is sponsored by: Triton Boats,
Evinrude, Davenport Boat, Strictly Bass Lures, Rod Wrap, BassMedics,
and Bag-em.
Second place went to Jeremia
Matz, of Waterloo, IA. His sack of 5 largemouth weighed 10.97 and
were taken with a Rapala DT crankbait on rocks in the same area as
Ken as they were partners for the day.
Third Place went to tournament
director Ryan Christoffer, from Waterloo, IA. He caught his fish on
a black and blue finesse jig. The fish were all found on rocks near
a marina. He reported catching many keepers but, unfortunately,
there was little size to them. Ryan is sponsored by Secret Weapon
Lures.
