Time: 7:30 - 3:30
Ramp: Blackhawk Big Bass: Steve Barker 2.50 Lbs

The Trophy Bassmasters got off to a rough start in their 1st club tournament of the season this past weekend on Indian lake. Many of the anglers reported that they were just glad to get back to the boat ramp as very strong winds whipped the shallow lake into a very dangerous venue. Sixteen club members hit the water at 7:30AM for a 9 hour day. When the day ended 13 of the anglers had at least 1 keeper of 12” or more to bring to the scales. Steve Barker was the big winner as he recorded a double win with both the most weight and the big bass of the day. Barker had the only 5 fish limit that weighed 8.57lbs which included a 2 1/2 lb bass as the lunker winner. John Clark caught 2 fish for 4.46lbs for 2nd place while new member Kelly Dearwester had 4.31lbs in 3 fish for 3rd place. Only 22 bass were scored and released. Total weight was 35.61lbs. The club will now hold the 34th Annual Indian Lake Spring Open on Sunday, April 22nd at the Moundwood Ramp on Indian Lake. This tournament is open to the public and has a 1st prize of $2500.00.
