We had 10 members and a two guests (
Craig Lyons and Tom Walters ) fishing the first
tournament of the year on Lake
Roosevelt. It was
in the 50's for the 5:15 Saturday
blast off with moderate wind
conditions on Saturday. Sunday
saw low 50's again with mild winds for
the blast off and around 70 degrees
for the 1:00 pm Weigh In.
Water temperatures were 51 - 53 in
the main lake with the mid
50's in a few coves. Rich
Coffey had motor problems on Sunday,
so he and his partner Kevin Lunde
did not make the Sunday weigh in.
Winner Dwayne Lyons reported
catching most of his Saturday fish
on football head jigs with hula
grubs and catching 10 Sunday fish on
jerk baits. Another
great spring fishing day on Lake
Roosevelt!
The next club tournament is the
Jamboree on
Banks Lake.
