This tournament was the makeup for the February 28th event that was postponed due to the snow & icy weather 
that came down upon us in a right big way! We did get a break in the weather this day, but it was still cold in the 
morning but pretty nice towards days end.
It was about 35 degrees that morning and around 55 that afternoon with very light winds. Water temps ranged 
from 40 to 47 depending on the area fished and water was muddy in certain areas after the rain earlier in the 
week. Out of 56 teams fishing only 14 actually weighed in a bass. Water temps were just too cold to get a good 
bite with all the unstable weather we have had this year so far. It will get better, however.
      Somehow, Tony Woodard & Scott Smith stumbled across 2 bass weighing a total of 11.57 lbs. and they were the 
only team to weigh in 2 fish. This veteran team won 1st place and 1st place TWT for a total of $2,077 in prize 
money. Dave Murdock & Tony Fofi took 2nd place with 1 fish weighing 9.46 lbs. They also won the Big Fish 
Award and 2nd Place TWT for a grand total of $1,777. 2nd Place Big Fish (8.37 lbs.) was caught by the team of 
Mike Sipple & Curtis Vaughn netting them $318 in prize money.
      Only 15 fish were weighed in for a total of 92 pounds for an average of 6.13 lbs. each. There were a few bass 
caught that could not be weighed in because of the slot limit rule on Harris.
      I want to thank all the anglers that participated and all our sponsors that support this trail. Coming up Saturday 
March 21st will be the Hyco Lake Open and Sunday March 22nd will be the make-up Cashion Fishing Rods 
Spring Team Bass Mini Trail Q#1 at Shearon Harris. The PBC Q#2 at Jordan Lake scheduled for March 14th 
was postponed and rescheduled for Sunday March 29th. This was the only date I could find that would work best 
for our schedule due to all the tournaments in the area.
