8.18 lb’er… Garrett & Roy took home a total of $650.00 for all teir time on the water.
Bob Keeland & Shelby Shaw won $255.00 with their limit weighing in at 16.60 lbs…. That was with Bob fishing handicapped with a treble hook buried in his thumb… With the help of one of our AMAZING Game Wardens and a pair of heavy duty pliers/cutters, they finally got the hook out of his thumb. What a dedicated fisherman for finishing the day with a hook buried in his thumb…
