Ernie Shuler takes the Win at Brookeville

Brookeville started off on the wet side and dried up for most of the day. Giving some comfortable fishing conditions for the club. Despite good fishing conditions, finding those 15 inch Indiana keepers made it a tough day to get on the board for a lot of the club anglers. Many reported having an Ohio limit 2 times over, but this is Indiana and Ernie Shuler would prove yet again that he is the one to beat this year. Bringing 3 fish to the scales totaling 6.11 lbs including another Big Bass win with his 3.62 lbs bass.

Ernie Shuler is certainly the man to beat this year increasing his lead to 18.33 lbs for the season thus far. Danny Schmitz holds down second with 8.54 lbs, Dylan House with 7.67 lbs holds onto 3rd, Scott Wilmoth climbs to 4th with 4.70 lbs, and Bobby Farmer rounds out the top 5 with 4.48 lbs and bumps Toney Barker with 3.24 lbs to 6th. Tony Vieson gets of the board for the first time this season with 1.48 lbs, and Tyler Spurlock drops to 8th with 0.97 lbs.

From here the club heads to the Ohio River at Eagle Creek. Last years trip offered up very few fish. This seasons weather has played havoc with the river. Causing consistent rises and falls of the river. Will the river settle by the time the club gets to Eagle Creek, or will mother nature continue to dump more rain on the region. Only time will tell.
