Lake Houston water was in good shape and about normal pool level with water temps running 86-88 degrees. The weather at takeoff was a calm 71 degrees with a warming to 92 degrees by weigh in time. The fish catching was poor on Lake Mud today as there was only 1 limit brought to the scales for a total of 11 bass at 22.96 lbs making the average bass brought to the scales today weigh 2.08 lb. The Tiremax wrapped Bowden Marine BassCat/Rude of Ricky Guy from Humble, Tx ran to the north lake area to catch his bass throwing crank baits in 2-6 ft of water. Ricky only managed to catch 5 keepers to finish in 1st place with 9.11 lbs. These 5 bites made Ricky $600.00 for his day on the water. Ricky did collect another $25.00 from Bass Guard for having a Bass Guard culling system on board.
The Bass Guard wrapped BassCat/Mercury of Chris DiBerardino from Huffman, Tx ran to the north lake areas to catch his bass throwing small crank baits with his American Rodsmiths Rods and Shimano reels in 1-5 ft of water. Chris managed to catch 4 keepers to finish in 2nd place with 7.31 lbs.
