Loch Raven Reservoir Saturday August 1st:
The weigh-in at MRA’s 3rd (regular season) tournament of the 2015 season provided an interesting blend of big bass and a small numbers of 8-fish limits. 8 Lunkers over four pounds, (two over 5 pounds), displayed no lack of quality in the bass brought to the scales. However, only 8 teams were able to bring a limit of bass to the scales. The 96 fish weighed-in averaged a healthy 2.48 Lbs. Congratulations to the team of Craig Gordon and Holden Wolfe for their first place finish with an impressive total weight of 26.89 Lbs. Second place was claimed by Mike Atwood and Jess Weeks with a healthy 21.46 pound limit of Loch Raven Largemouth bass. Very close behind in third place was the team of Bob Standiford and Brian McQuaid with 21.17 Lbs. The Largemouth Lunker prize went to Bob Standiford and Brian McQuaid for their beautiful 5.09 Lb beast. There were no smallmouth bass brought to the scales.
Congratulations to Craig, Holden, Mike, Jess, Bob, and Brian for a great effort!
A special note of thanks goes out to Mike Ahfeldt and Shane Lawson for a great demonstration of sportsmanship. Mike and Shane towed Larry Barger and Cliff Cleary 4 miles back to the ramp, after Larry’s engine failed early in the day.
Finally, fish care was very good on this hot day. 94 of the 96 bass weighed-in were released into Loch Raven alive and well.
Thanks again to everyone who assisted with morning sign-in and with the afternoon weigh-in.
We hope to see everyone at the Weekday Warrior tournament at Prettyboy on Wednesday 8/12/15.
