The FPBA fished its latest event on Bayou LaCombe October 11th out of the Oak lined Main Street Launch. The south wind and high tide had the flipping fanatics smiling before launch talking about the bass hiding targets in play for the 25 members that fished the tournament. 15 boats scattered as numbers were called at blast off with boats going north and south from the ramp. When the anglers starting arriving at their first spots they were greeted by clearer than normal water with some being able to see 3 to 4 foot in some places off the main Bayou.
A few members found ways to make the bite work in the clear water while others headed east to Bayou Liberty and Bonafuca in search of some comfort providing color to the water or went north to the cypress trees that provide shade and obvious targets to cast to. At the 3 o’clock weigh in it was a mixture of smiling and mumbling as members were getting their boats out of the water and started lining up to weigh in. Only 5 limits were brought in with a total of 40 fish for 66.53 lbs crossing the FPBA scales. The final results were:
1st Trenton and Jason Pittman 5/11.16 lbs
2nd Jimmy Dorris and Will Moore 5/9.11 lbs.
3rd Wayne Sr. and Wayne Jr. Richardson 5/7.67 lbs
4th Scott Andrews 5/7.04 lbs (Sponsored by Dr. Charles Genovese Jr.)
Mister Twister big bass went to John Gillispie with a 4.11 lb marsh stud
