ABA District 46 National Tournament Trail


John (JJ) Patton WINS!
Mississippi River pool 14, August 13, 2006, by Chris DeVries

    

In a day that started with confusion and a trailer and boat parade over the Mississippi River on the I – 80 bridge, John Patton got back to his winning weights!

JJ Patton made the run to the northern end of the pool where he nabbed a 12.40 lbs sack for the win. He noted that all of his fish came on jigs fished along wood. His sack included the days Big Bass, a 4.18 lbs behemoth that is indicative of the quality of fish in this pool. JJ had a weight big enough to win by 9:30am, with four fish. Since he is a relentless competitor, he continued to fight and catch his fifth and final keeper just minutes before weigh – in. Great job JJ!!

Second place was taken by Rick Cloninger. Rick locked through to Pool 13 and caught 3 largemouth bass for 5.02 lbs.

Third place was weigh in by Chris DeVries. Chris brought to keepers to the scales for a total of 3.33 lbs.

Our next event will be the two day District Championship. We will be launching from the new public ramp in Muscatine. Registration on August 26 will be from 5am to 5:45am, with a 6 am blastoff. Weigh ins will be at 2:00pm both days. We will crown our District Champion, Angler of the year, and Rookie of the Year on Sunday August 27th.
