In fourth place for the boaters, Jason Locke from Woodbury, Tennessee weighed in five bass for 19.47 pounds including a 4.81 pounder.  Rounding out the top five was Barry Johnson from Walling, Tennessee with 18.23 pounds.

In the Co-Angler division, Craig Allen from Kingston Springs, Tennessee took the win with a three-fish tournament limit that weighed 9.02 pounds.  Allen also had the biggest fish among the co-anglers which was a 3.73-pound bass.  He earned $900 for the win along with the Big Bass award of $135.  “I had a limit by 8 o’clock and decided I was going to change what I was doing and up-size.  I culled two fish and I caught the good smallmouth.  Only caught five keepers today but I had a good day.” said Allen.

Taking second for the co-anglers was Kenny Anderson from Sparta, Tennessee.  Anderson brought three bass to the stage that weighed 8.87 pounds.  His three-fish earned him a check for $400.  “I didn’t lose a fish so that was a good thing.  Got them all in the boat so it was just one of those days.  Needed that big bite but didn’t get it.” said Anderson.

Ryan Harpe from Cookeville, Tennessee came in third with three bass weighing 6.99 pounds.  “We had a pretty good morning this morning.  Starting right off the bat, we caught all our fish.  We had everything that we had by about 9:30. Caught my biggest fish on a jig and the other two came on a rattletrap.” said Harpe.

In fourth place among the co-anglers, Randy Griffin of Murfreesboro, Tennessee weighed in three bass that weighed 6.98 pounds.  Rounding out the top five was Herbert Hall of Harrison, Tennessee who had a three-fish bag weighing 5.78 pounds.
