“I caught most of my fish throwing jerkbaits,” Anderson said. “I missed a couple of bites early but made a key color change, which made all the difference. I stayed in 7 to 8 feet of water throughout the day. Overall, I caught about eight fish, six of which were keepers, so while it wasn’t extremely busy, it was definitely productive.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Third place went to Barry Hoehne of Newalla, OK, who brought in a five-fish limit weighing 14.21 pounds. Hoehne earned $1,200 for his efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I found the warmest water I could and did what I hate doing: throwing a spinnerbait,” Hoehne remarked humorously. “I know it’s almost sacrilege because bass typically avoid spinnerbaits here in Oklahoma, but that’s what they were biting today, so that’s what I threw. I stayed in one area all day and kept grinding. I caught about seven keepers, which allowed me to cull a couple of times.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eli Brumnett from Wagoner and Bill Bean from Eufaula tied for fourth place. Both anglers weighed exactly 13.85 pounds and each received a check for $900.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For anglers who missed this event, there\u2019s still plenty of opportunity to qualify for the Ray Scott Championship. Points needed for qualification can be earned from any ABA division nationwide, and participating in just one event makes anglers eligible for the two-day tournament later in the fall. The next tournament will take place at Lake Tenkiller, launching from Sizemore Ramp, on April 26th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Complete Final Results Link<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information on upcoming tournaments, call Chris Wayand, tournament manager, at 256-230-5627 <\/a>or ABA at 256-232-0406.<\/a> Online, see\u00a0www.americanbassanglers.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n About American Bass Anglers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n American Bass Anglers is dedicated to organizing affordable, local tournaments for weekend anglers while offering opportunities for individual angler advancement.
