After a canceled Sardis
Lake event, the Hog Hunters were off to Hudson
for their 3rd Season Tourney. On Friday,
heavy thunderstorms rolled through northeaster
Oklahoma and saturated the ground.
Moreover, they served to fill up many of the
local lakes (including Hudson) in the area.
So, fisherman on Saturday were greeted with a
lake that had come up 1.8 feet in elevation
basically overnight. All things
considered, conditions were perfect for them biggin's to be
a bitting in shallow water.
Congratulations are due to our Hudson Champions,
Steve Sanders and Tom Korb,
for bringing in a solid limit of fish weighing
in at 16.44 lbs and thereby trumping our second
place winners by a mere 0.04 lbs. Second
Place went to the Team #18 of Thompson
and Brasswell for their five fish
weighing 16.40 lbs. Great Job Gentlemen!!
Less than one pound away from
our top two was our Third Pace winners Tom Boone
and Benny Boone. This Father / Son Team
brought in five beauties tipping the scales at
15.79 lbs. Congratulations Tom & Benny! Way
to go...
The
title of Big Bass was awarded to
Thompson & Brasswell for their Largemouth
weighing 5.47 lbs. What a fish! And, 2nd Big Bass went to
the team of Chuck Holmes and Jeff Bias for
their 4.87 lbs. Again...
Great showing!
Congratulations to all those mentioned above, and to everyone who fished
for making this a fantastic tournament.
Looking forward continued success in 2011, and
a fun tournament on Ft. Gibson next month.
