Harpers Ferry Final Results

Post by tahrens »

16 boats departed from the launch site greeted with light wind and cool temperatures, (unlike the previous several days and prior tournament at Genoa.) Although fishing conditions were good overall, a mixed bag of results were recorded. Eight teams caught a total of 26 walleye weighing 96.92lbs. almost a 3.75lb. average with all fish immediately recorded and released! With water temps. in the low 40's, about half of the catch were pre-spawned females. Only three teams recorded a five fish limit. Several presentations were used, pitching jigs on current breaks and slow pulling crank baits being the most effective.

Congratulations to Billy Martin and Chad Kinkade, scoring an impressive catch of 25.39lbs. for 1st. place!

Billy Martin/Chad Kinkade 25.39lbs. 1st.place
Jeremy Geisler/Mike Goltz 16.47lbs. 2nd. place
Carl Holten/ Marty Stuefen 14.26lbs. 3rd. place
Tim and Tom Ahrens 12.94lbs 4th. place
Doug Bonwell/Greg Malstead 9.78lbs 5th.place

There was a tie for Big Fish honors of 6.14lbs. between the Team of Kinkade/Martin and Brady Barker/Jonathon Martin, each will split the total of first and second place. 3rd. place went to the team of Holten and Stuefen 5.39lbs.
All results are on the website tournament tab.

Next event, May 7th. thanks to all that participated and helped with the take off and weigh-in, hope to see you in Clear Lake!

Tight lines! Stay Healthy, Take Care!
