On Saturday, June 11, members of the Pushmataha County
Sportsman Club held a bass tournament on Pine Creek Lake. Twenty-two members braved the high heat and
high humidity to compete in the event. The
heat did not discourage the fish from biting however, as half of those fishing
had six fish limits and it took a stringer weight of over twenty pounds just to
place in the top three positions. The
lake was close to the new “normal” level since the water level has been lowered
due to repair work being done on the lake dam.
Most
members were able to catch several keeper bass as well as a lot of fish under
the fourteen inch minimum length limit. Kaleb Hensley won the tournament with a
stringer weight of 22.29 pounds. He also
caught the biggest bass of the tournament with a fish weighing 5.43
pounds. Finishing in second place was Ellis
Silvey. Ellis had a stringer weight of
20.67 pounds. Randy Janoe came in third with a stringer weight of 20.48 pounds.
The
club’s next event will be a bass tournament on Sardis Lake. The tournament will be held on June 25 at the
Sardis Cove boat ramp. The tournament
will begin at “safe light” and end at 3:00 p.m. Remember to check the club’s
