Tournament # 2, May 19 2007, Mississippi River Pool 19

Today was sunny and nice except maybe for the wind but all-in-all a very good day for everyone. The water temps were in the upper 60's and the air temp climbed to the high 70's. The vast majority of team found a limit but there were few of big fish that this pool normally produces.

First place honors went to the team of Richie Eaves and Neil LeMaster with a strong 5 fish limit weighing 16.23bs. They reported a late bite and culled out all their fish in the last hour of the day near an area that had produced for them a few weeks ago in the upper end of the pool.

The runner-up team was Brett Rudy and Shannon Davis with a respectable limit that tipped the scales at 14.51lbs. Their fish were all caught in the lower end of the pool basically junk fishing as the fish seemed to bite on everything they used.

The third place team of Steve Anderson and David Fritts narrowly missed the runner-up spot  with their limit weighing 14.47lbs. They ran south as well and caught their big fish early then found a spinnerbait/crankbait bite later in the day.

From L to R: 3rd, David Fritts, Steve Anderson; 2nd, Shannon Davis, Brett Rudy; 1st, Neil LeMaster, Richie Eaves
