Ernie Shuler Conquers The Ohio River

Ernie Shuler takes the win at White Oak with a 5 fish limit of 5.85lbs. Rich Hensler grabs 2nd and Big Bass with 2.80 lbs, and Bobby Famer closes out the top 3 with 1.48lbs. With Tournament 7 officially in the bag, Bobby Farmer still holds onto 1st with 24.13 lbs. Ernie Shuler has climbed from the bottom and is now in 2nd with 22.63 lbs, and Andy Tobe squeaks into the top 3 with 18.47 lbs for the year.

Which brings us to the season equalizer, the BCB Fish Off. Not only is the BCB Fish off the biggest money tournament of the year, it is also the dream catcher and heart breaker of the year. Many anglers have held the coveted Angler of the Year title for an entire season only to see there chances swim away after the BCB Fish Off. What seems to be that unbeatable spring bass suddenly becomes under sized after the BCB Fish Off, so where will this years BCB Fish Off be held?

Lake Cummberland, a true new spot for the club. Many of the club has never been to this lake or have only visited it once. With slot limits larger than any tournament the club has faced. 15 Inch Limit on Large Mouth, 18 Inch Limit on Small Mouth, and 12 Inch Limit on Spotted Bass. With less than 6lbs separating 1st to 4th. The Angler of the Year is still very much up for grabs, and with average Big Bass for the year being over 5lbs. It is likely that the BCB Fish Off could also feature and new Big Bass for the season.

It’s time to replace that line, sharpen those hooks, and trailer up the boats, because the 2019 BCB Fish Off is here!
