Joe Picone The Double Nickel fished the Tchefuncte River on Tuesday. Nine anglers showed up to compete. The shad that was spotted everywhere last week have disappeared which made it difficult to locate fish. In the end it was Richard Alloto who brought in the heaviest 3 fish bag weighing 4.04 pounds. Alloto also won the big fish pot with a bass that weighed 2.50 pounds. In second place was Wayne Wicker with a 3-fish tournament limit weighing 3.86 pounds.
