March 29, 2008 FOCAS
hosted the first of four OPEN Bass Tournaments for 2008 with this tournament going to raise funds for a graduation scholarship for a local
high school
senior at Trigg County High School. The tournament took place on Saturday, March
29th and anglers could fish either Lake Barkley or Kentucky Lake.
The team of
Clint Huntsman and James Shelton brought the winning limit of bass to the
scales weighing
17.45 pounds. This nice stringer included the largest bass of
the tournament with a 6.08 Lake Barkley lunker to win the Jet-A-Marina big
bass pot. Taking both top honors gave the pair a payout totaling $388.00.
The 2nd place team of Jack Palmer and Rick Beck came up less
than a pound short of the top honors with a very nice catch of 16.67 pounds.
They collected $192 for the day.
