The weather was partly cloudy and warm with a light breeze and that water temperature was in upper 70's and muddy in most areas. The level had fallen 1 to 2 feet over the previous week this as well as they being post spawn made the fish much harder to put in the boat than they had been in the last two tournaments.
Rob Bartholomew, of Fort Madison locked down into pool 19 and ran 45 miles to reach his spot filled with grass and emerging pads to bring in a healthy 12.09lbs limit.
Second place was taken by Joe Cupp also caught all of his fish in pool 19. He caught his fish on a chatterbait, jigs, and a crankbait. His limit of largemouth weighed 11.41lbs.
Dave Knutstrom took 3rd place with 11.01lbs. Dave was part of our release staff today and he snuck away before I got an interview.
