Congratulations
BSCBC
Big Sandy Creek Bass Club wins
the 2008 Bass Club World Championship Central Region on Lake
Amistad. As expected, the team had a good shot at
winning the event and did so with flying colors. The
team practiced for the event from Saturday to Wednesday.
The better water was confirmed, new water was checked out
and several areas were eliminated.
According to Jon Stewart - BASS
Tournament Director - this was the very first "true team"
event where each team was paired with a member from their
own team - unlike events in the past where teams were paired
with boaters and non-boaters from other states or teams.
BSCBC finished day 1 only 6 ounces out
of first place (Held by the Angelo Federation Bass Club) -
keeping them in contention for the grand prize and leading
the third place team (Brush Country Bassmasters) by 7 lbs 3
oz.
The Purolater Big Bass of the event
was caught on day 1 by Jimmy Johnson (Brush Country
Bassmasters) and weighed 11 lbs 5 oz.
All of the BSCBC team members caught
quality fish totaling 115 lbs 15 oz. for the two-day event.
The second place team was 18 lbs 4 oz behind. Eight
teams from this event will move on the the Bass Club World
Championship in October on a lake that has yet to be
announced.
Texas rigged worms and Carolina rigs
accounted for the majority of the bass caught with a few
being caught on Brush-Hogs. The weather cooperated on
tournament days - although the pre-fish days were a true
test of weather stamina with the wind getting up there on
several occasions.
