Event: Indian Lake NOTES:
Date: April 20, 2013
Time: 7:00 - 2:00
Ramp: Moundwood Big Bass:Guy Gerber 5.36 Lbs
The Trophy Bassmasters held their 2nd club tournament of the 2013 season this past Saturday under brutal conditions. Temperatures in the 30s along with strong north winds and even snow and sleet were all part of the mix for the 7 hour competition day which started at 7:00AM. Even with all the negatives the weather presented to fishing, 19 anglers forged ahead in search of largemouth bass. The catch results were pretty much as expected as only 18 keepers were brought to scales with a total weight of 30.15lbs. All were released alive. Only 9 anglers had keeper bass while 5 of them brought just 1 fish to the scales and 10 members blanked. There were a couple of bright spots though as Boyd Downey had a 5 fish limit and 8.96lbs for 1st place while Guy Gerber caught a true giant for Indian Lake as he landed a 5.36lb lunker for Big Bass of the day as well as 2nd place in the event. Gerber’s fish set’s a very high mark for the big bass of the year. There has not been a year end Big Bass award over 5lbs for several years so Gerber’s chances at the final award are quite good. Mark Dairy rounded out the top 3 as he brought in 2 bass for 4.79lbs and the bronze medal.
