Piedmont Bass Classics Results – Shearon Harris – Mar. 5th

A record was set today! The team turnout was a record 82 boats! This is the largest turnout of teams in the history of the Piedmont Bass Classics! 216 bass were weighed for a whopping total of 541 pounds. All fish were released alive! Water temps averaged 55 to 58 and air temps ranged from 44 to 65 with winds ranging from light to 20 mph gusts midday.

Big fish for the day was 10.23 pounds and many bass in the 7 to over 8 pound range were also weighed. Just about any lure would work this day, but the Senko baits seemed to tempt the larger bass which were mostly caught in the 10 to 15 water depth. The smaller bass were caught mostly in the shallower water.

Once again, I want to thank our sponsors. Without their support we could not be offering the $5,000 Trail.

The next PBC tournament will be at Jordan Lake on March 12th. This event will be an ‘Open Fun’ tournament and will be a good practice run for the next ‘Piedmont Bass Classics $5,000 Bass Tournament Trail’ qualifier #2 at Jordan, March 19th. I hope to see all of you at Jordan on the 12th!
