We had 3 members fishing the final
tournament of the year on Banks Lake.
The blast off was at 6:30 am each
day. The weigh ins were
at 3:00 pm on Saturday and noon on
Sunday. They were combined with
Western, who had 12
boats. The weather was in the
50's in the mornings and 60's for
the weigh in on both days.
Water temperatures were mostly in the
upper 60's. Both days saw
strong winds from the southwest
making it difficult to fish the main
lake. It felt like fall
for the noon Sunday weigh in because
of clouds, high winds and 60 degree
temperatures. It was a tough
bite. Lots of 2 year old
smallies, in the quarter pound
range, were caught but getting
quality fish to bite was tough.
Of the 14 fish caught four were
largemouth. Tom caught all his
Saturday fish on tubes. He
said he missed 3 all over 3 pounds.
They were barely lip hooked and came
off before they could be landed.
There were lots of suspended fish in
the 15 foot range that showed up on
the electronics. Dana said he
fished the shoreline in Osborn on
Saturday and had only one bite,
a 2.88 pound largemouth.
Chris fished the calm areas on the
outside of Steamboat Rock and caught
lot's of 2 year old smallies but he
also had difficulty getting good
fish to bite. The were a few
good bags weighed by Western on
Saturday that were in the 10 to 12
pound range. |
