Dana Ingalls with a 3.73 Largemouth
a Club Record
|
We had 4 members
fishing the first club tournament ever
on Pot Holes. The weather was
warm, around
90 degrees both days with water
temperatures in the mid 70's and mild
breezes. The fishing was tough for
both largemouths and smallmouths.
We launched from Blythe and had the
weigh in there both days. Greg and
Mike missed the Saturday drivers meeting
and blast off and even though they
caught fish on Saturday they thought
they couldn't weigh in because they
missed the blast off. Dana
had a tough day on Saturday with just a
few bites. He said he missed a 5+
largemouth on a jig and was very
disappointed. Tom said he had 7 smallie bites on Saturday morning,
missed all of the bites, and then
went largemouth fishing for the rest of
day where he caught 2 fish, one on a
Beaver and one on a Sammie, in the
center dune area. Dana brought 4
fish in Sunday, 3 laremouths and a
smallmouth, caught on 4 different baits.
His big fish, a 3.73 pound largemouth,
was the largest largemouth caught in a
Banks Lake Bass Club tournament.
Tom said he caught 2 small smallies and
missed several other in the first hour
on Sunday and then went largemouth
fishing in the dunes where he caught a
3 + smallmouth and a 2 1/2 largemouth on
beavers. Members of the BASS
Federation were prefishing for their
Qualifier next week end and all we
talked to said fishing was tough.
All 4 members and Dick Hampton and his
wife, Goldie, went to dinner at the golf
course Saturday night and swapped
fishing stories. A good time was
had by all. |
