West Central Bass League - Lake Andrew

After a record turnout the night before this Thursday had our lowest number of participants of the season. Strong winds and threats of severe thunderstorms kept most people home for the evening although it turned out to be not so bad after all. With only 13 boats fishing instead of the usual 20-25 it really opens a lake up to fish more areas. Those of us who did show up probably wished we had stayed home though after getting our butts handed to us by the winning team on what is traditionally a small fish lake. Here are the results.

1st - Superstars Tim Stockland & Grant King 3 fish 11.57 lbs

2nd - Paul & Troy 3 fish 7.70 lbs

3rd - Andy & Mike (My dad and I) 3 fish 7.09 lbs

4th - Scott & Al 3 fish 7.02 lbs

Big Bass - Tim & Grant 4.48 lbs

I'll keep this recap short and sweet since I went long on the last one and really there isn't a whole lot to say. We spent most of the night bouncing around various deep weedline areas in 10-12 feet of water. We did make two forays into the shallows but did not catch any that helped our limit. The fish we did catch were all about 2 1/4 lbs and they came on watermelon jigs and Brush Hogs.

Also I'd like to give a big THANKS to Lafe Swalin for letting us use his boat this week. Our boat broke down Tuesday morning and has been in the shop waiting for parts all week. Without his generosity we would not have been able to fish at all. Thank you Lafe!
