[print_link]

It was like fishing in July!!! 74 boats arrived to vie for the 1st Place award in the Cashion Fishing Rods Spring  Team Tournament Bass Trail Qualifier #1 at Shearon Harris Lake. The weather was unlike we’ve ever seen inFebruary with winds light & variable in the am and up to 15 mph in the afternoon, the air temps ranged from 59 to 80 and the water level was about normal. Surface water temps were 53 to 63 degrees depending where youwere on the lake! The fish are trying to hit the banks but with the unstable temps it’s just a matter of time before the spawn really begins!! No rhyme or reason in finding a pattern. Polygraph was given and results final.Tyler Faggart & Paul Owens found 5 overslot bass weighing a total of 24.60 lbs to take 1st Place and 1st Place TWT for a total of $2,570 in prize money!The 2nd Place team of Billy Bledsoe & Brian McDonald caught 5 bass weighing 18.50 lbs. and took home $800 in winnings. The 3rd Place team of KC Choosakul & Tim Penhollow presented 5 bass weighing 17.41 lbs. andthey also won 1st Place Big Fish (9.26 lbs.) to rack up $1,375 in winnings.

With the slot limit rules enforced at Harris, only 104 bass were brought to the scales for a total of  pounds averaging 2.99 lbs. each. Jerk baits, spinnerbaits, jig & pigs and Alabama rigs in the more shallow waterseemed to be the lures of choice.
