Chris Basey In the early morning hours of last Sunday anglers gathered at the East Pearl launch for the Bass Assassins tournament. The East Pearl was low with an incoming tide, and the West Pearl was on the rise. One by one the fifteen anglers and one youngster took off in all directions as I called out their numbers. The forecast for the day was for clouds all day with a possibility of rain. Well we saw none of that. It turned out to be a clear and very hot day on the water. As everyone started to creep back in at noon, tough fishing was the talk around the scales. This was further solidified as folks brought up their bags to be weighed in. Despite the tough conditions Bill Dorris managed to bring in a 7.86 lbs. limit to claim first as well as a 4.13 lbs. kicker to take home the big fish honors as well. In second we find Blaine Williams who brought in a 6.29 lbs. limit.

Last tournament winner John Cahill ended up with another solid finish in third with a 5.49 lbs. limit. Young Landin Williams took home the Little Tanglers win with a four fish bag that totaled 2.98 lbs.
