Bring on the Summer Heat

Summer is in full swing, muggy weather, water temperatures comparable to bath water, and the inevitable tough summer bite. With overcast skies and a lite sprinkle here and there. Mother nature gave the club a bit of a break this time out, but despite pleasant weather, given the time of year, the bite still proved to be tough.

Despite tough fishing, 2 anglers seemed to have the magic touch. Bob Farmer would capture 4 fish totaling 5.40lbs, but despite another great showing from the veteran known to the as Bobby Bass, the victory would go to Tony Vieson. Achieving his first 5 fish limit totaling 7.06lbs. Tony would also capture Big Bass victory with a respectful 2.25lbs bass.

With 4 tournaments in the books, the Angler of the Year standings is till up for grabs.

1st Bob Farmer 18.58lbs
2nd Andy Tobe 17.19lbs
3rd Dan Schmitz 12.46lbs

Bob Farmer and Andy Tobe continue to put some distance on the back while Dan Schmitz can feel the pack closing in. With less than a pound separating 3rd to 5th. Will East Fork be the lake that closes the gap on the leaders, will we see another Angler climb out of the bottom of standing put some on 3rd through 5th. Only time will tell….
