Anglers Quest 2007 Twin Lake Saturday Series #2 on Lake Houston out of Lake Houston Marina in Huffman, TX began this event with 24 teamed anglers showing up to fish for the $890.00 purse. The event began at safe light, which was 7:00 am. Weigh in was conducted at 3:15 pm. This Saturday Series after all 20 events will provide the Team Anglers of the year with free entries to all 2008 Saturday Series events. The Top 25 teams will go to the Saturday Series Championship in October on Lake Livingston & Lake Houston. A special Top 7 group of teams will qualify to go to the “Tournament of Champions” to be held in November on Lake Tyler. All A/Q Championships include Calcutta auctions which builds the Championship purse to some very nice $$ to fish for, for a very small entry fee of $100.00 per team.
Lake Houston water was a bit off color and about 1 ft above normal pool level due to the recent rains, with water temps running 57-58 degrees. The weather at takeoff was a calm 47 degrees with a warming to 54 degrees by weigh in time. The fishing was very poor on Houston today as there were no limits brought to the scales, a total of 9 bass at 21.55 lbs making the average bass brought to the scales today weigh 2.39 lb.
