Slow Night at Tuesday Night's Bass Tournament

Unfortunately, most of the 15 boats that went out for last night's tournament on Marsh Creek lake came up with a big zero! August hasn't been great for bass fishing, and last night was a frustrating washout for most. The biggest bass weighed in at 4.53 lbs. The same boat hauled in 2 other nice ones for a total of 12.01 pounds and the first place prize. The contest begins at 6pm (registration starts at 5pm) and runs until 10pm. All the boats last night were in before 10 (which is an indicator of a poor night). The head of the Bass Club predicts a good September, and I heard plenty of fish stories to keep motivated! I caught a small one myself yesterday out in the kayak. As a final note, all the fishermen release the bass they catch! (as do I) Next time I'll bring you some pictures. Happy Fishing! -adrienne
