The Roostertales Bass Club had its fourth one-day tournament of the year at Saguaro Lake on Saturday 4/8/17. Main lake temperatures were around 70 degrees and the river was several degrees lower. The high winds that were predicted earlier in the week did not materialize. Seventeen boats participated. There were eight limits weighed. The first place team was Allen and Coleman with 18.83# and second big fish of 5.14#. Second place was the husband/ wife team of Redding and Redding with 17.65# and big fish of 5.71#. Third place went to Club president Joe Jensen and his partner Joe Chubbuck with 15.46#.
Fish were variously caught as they were in pre-spawn, spawn, and post-spawn modes. And fish were caught on various techniques including dropshot, jerk bait, topwater, swimbaits, senkos, and spinnerbaits.
Our next tournament is on Roosevelt Lake on May 6.
On June 10th, we will have our popular OPEN Tournament on Bartlett Lake from 4 pm to midnight. Put this on your calendar. Refer to our website Memorial Open tab for more information.
