Hunting season arrived and the qualifier #5 of PBC Cashion Fishing Rods ‘End of Year’ Trail at Falls Lake took a hit with only 30 teams showing up and the weights took a hit too! Air temps ranged from 54 degrees in the am on up to 70 at the 3pm weighin. Water temps averaged about 74 degrees. Winds were nonexistent in the am up to about 10
mph in the afternoon. The bite was good but it was tough to get 5 good fish…most were small.
The veteran team of Todd Massey & Tim Parker won 1st Place weighing in 5 bass at 19.04 lbs., 1st Place Big Fish (7.33 lbs.)and also won the 1st Place Tournament within a Tournament (TWT) for a total of $1,707 in winnings. The team said most of their bass were caught off channel points & dropoffs in 3 to 10‘ of water with crankbaits & worm
rigs.
