Cool weather and and incoming tide greeted the 25 anglers that fished the latest Double Nickel tournament at the East Pear River. The skies were overcast all morning which should have led to heavy bags at the weigh-in. However, the weights were low. In the end it was Richard Alloto who took the top spot with 3-fish weighing 5.798 pounds. In second place was Jerry Bullock who weighed in 3 fish at 5.710 pounds. Bullock also had the big fish of the day: a 3.153-pound bass. Joe Frierson placed third with 5.567 pounds. Barry Lee placed second in the big bass division with a 3.119-pound fish.
The Double Nickel Bass Club is holding its next tournament at the East Pearl River on October 17. For more information please contact Dwain Crumby at 985-502-6006.
