The Double Nickel Bass Club held its tournament despite forecasted rain. Fortunately, the weather cooperated and anglers stayed dry throughout the morning. A total of 23 boats participated in the event. Water levels were high with an outgoing tide during the first part of the morning, and water clarity was mixed throughout the fishing areas.
At the weigh-in, Tommy Watkins claimed first place with a weight of 6.23 pounds. Watkins also took home the big bass prize with a 4.22-pound catch. Guy Stegall secured second place with a total weight of 5.98 pounds. In third place was Ralph Dunn with 5.69 pounds, who also claimed second place in the big bass division with a 2.61-pound bass.
