McGee Creek 3-10-18


McGee Creek Bass Tournament

Members of the Pushmataha County Sportsman Club held their first bass tournament of the year on Saturday, March 10.  The tournament was held on McGee Creek Lake.  Twenty-nine members competed in the event.  For once, the weather cooperated with mild temperatures, no rain and light to moderate winds.  The lake level was about one foot above normal with water temperatures in the mid to upper fifties.

Only two anglers were able to catch a limit of six bass.  None were able to catch a bass over the 16-22 inch slot limit.  Eleven anglers were unable to catch a single keeper but did report they had caught some nice bass that were in the slot limit and had to be released.

Craig Bartlett won the tournament with a stringer weight of 7.64 pounds.  Chuck Beck finished in second place with a stringer weight of 6.18 pounds.  Finishing in third place was Judd Thomas with a stringer weight of 6.11 pounds. The big bass of the tournament weighed 1.92 pounds and was caught by Kindel Holiman.

The club’s next bass tournament will be on March 24, at Sardis Lake.  Launch site for the tournament will be Sardis Cove ramp.  Fishing times will be from 7:00-4:00.
