Anglers were greeted in the morning by cloudy skies and lower temperatures in the mid to upper 70's warming to mid-90's by the afternoon. Light rain at times helped cool the temperature and provided some respite from the summer heat.
A total of (51) anglers comprising a total of (24) teams and (3) individual anglers brought a grand total of (204.70) pounds of bass to the scale. There were (21) five-bass limits and (3) zeros.

WE WILL START EARLIER ON JULY 6TH AT 5:00AM WITH THE WEIGH-IN AT OPENING AT 1:00PM AND CLOSING AT 1:30PM. This change in time will help beat the heat and ease congestion at the ramp for this tournament only.
