Mr Bass East is complete!

Bill Barlow charged out to the day 1 lead looking strong to defend his crown with over 16 pounds and a 7.04 lunker. A group of anglers were within 4 pounds of the lead. Co-angler leader on day 1 was Joe Henderson with over 10 pounds and day 1 lunker a little under 4 pounds.

Day 2 fished tougher for many including Bill and he was not able to defend his title. District 3 kept it in the family though as Bob Miller was strong both days finishing in 1st place with 23.55 pounds over David Greenleaf with 22.03 who also made a strong 2 day showing. Bill finished 3^rd (19.93) with Ed Guidon falling less than half a pound short of the money in 4^th (19.60).

Fifth spot went to Chuck Anthony with 18.49 pounds with Scott Weimer finishing 6^th (17.21).

District 6 new members Jeremy Limerick and Rocky Rhrodes had a good showing finishing 7^th (16.60) and 9^th (15.39) respectively with new member from Bay Anglers Bill Pursley sandwiched in between in 8^th (15.96).

Rounding out the top 10 was Joe Booker with 15.29 pounds.

Where was that little guy in the white Ranger this year?  We sort of missed him.

District 1 tournament director Greg Smith weighed in the biggest fish of his career on day 2 for lunker at 6.9 pounds.

District 7 member and president Chris Wilson feigned competency with his first day strong bag over 12 pounds before drifting off into the sunset on day 2.

On the co-angler side Joe Henderson held on to his day 1 lead finishing first with 16.48 pounds. Shawn Noel’s strong tournament put him in second with 14.17 and Ryan Urso finished closest to limiting both days with 9 fish and 13.78 pounds for a third place finish.

David M. Mizenko headed up the rest of the top ten with a 2^nd day lunker of 6.69 pounds finishing 4^th with a total weigh of 8.74 pounds. Fifth place goes to Somang Kim (7.33), 6^th Superman Steve Koch (5.58), 7^th Ron “Legs” Livers (5.40), 8^th Gary Leranian (5.34), 9^th Steve Steiner (5.25) and 10^thplace goes to Tony Osborne with 4.87 pounds.
