Garnder Lake Tourney Results
Message:
Tournament Force Bassmasters held their 2nd tourney of the young season Saturday at Gardner Lake. What appeared on Friday to be another tough set of conditions thankfully began to adjust early enough on Friday to provide at least some decent fishing on Saturday. The new ramp is AWESOME. Double launching with a nice double-sided dock in the middle. Plenty of lower level, near ramp parking and they still have the huge overflow area up top. Two of the participants were able to catch a limit. Everyone caught fish with the minimum being 3 fish by caught 3 participants. Fish were caught on a number of different baits including, spider grubs, soft jerkbaits, crankbaits. hard jerkbaits, etc. I let each individual share their particulars. Most fish were shallow in less than 10' of water. Water temps generally were in the mid 50's except for the shallow western bay which almost hit 60 and had numerous empty beds. Winds were generally pretty brisk 12-16 mph. Here's the results. First place- Mark Konarski - 5 fish - 7#4 A. J. Maxwell - 3 fish - 3#13 Total Weight 11#1 2nd place Ryan Adams - 3 fish - 3#14 Dave Van Allen - 5 fish - 6#9 Total Weight 10#7 3rd Place Walt Mayhew - 4 Fish - 6#5 (Luker Smallie @ 2#7 LMB @ 2#4) Gary Zess - 3 Fish - 3#11 Total Weight 10#0

Although there were no large fish caught,..it was decent action for us throughout the day. In addition to the fish that we weighed,..we had a bunch of shorts and a ton of pickeral!! :? AJ (aka Largefry) was throwing different baits but a good number of his were coming on a dropshot. Mine came on either a dropshot or a finnesse worm rigged wacky on a jighead ("Flick-shake" style). Neither AJ nor I know any "spots" on Gardner, so we just drifted the shorelines and threw anywhere from zero to about 8 feet deep! 8)
