The Florida Parish Bass angler’s rolled into downtown Lacombe for their March club tournament and the teams that showed up were greeted with a cool front with rainy conditions at blast off.
As the day progressed the rain subsided and a strong north wind blew for the rest of the afternoon making for some unpleasant conditions for all. With the full moon cycle during the tournament weekend a lot of the fish were in a guard mode rather than an eat mode according to several anglers that reported fish just swiping at their baits throughout the day. As is the case with this group of anglers fish will be brought to the scale and as 3pm rolled around that was evident again, below is a rundown of the top 3 teams.
1st Jason & Trenton Pittman 10.89lbs
2nd Greg Shelton & Phat Tran 9.48lbs
3rd Steve Ruschmeier & Casey Cramer 9.19lbs

The Mister Twister Big Bass of the tournament went to Jason Pittman with a fish weighing in at 5.50lbs and that fish earned him the Big Bass prize money as well as the tackle package provided by Mister Twister.
