The Ray Hubbard Bass Club held our sixth members only tournament of 2017 last Saturday July 8th at Lake Lavon. After a smaller turn out at Cedar Creek in June, we rebounded strong with a monster summer turnout of 43 boats! Typical summer heat was offset by a decent breeze early that turned in to a strong wind by the end of the day. We pushed our way through the weigh in to try and beat an approaching storm which you will see in evidence in one of the photos. Lavon has been fishing tough. Keepers have been hard to come by and our numbers showed that. Only eight 5 fish limits were brought to the scales. There were two big bags brought in and some giant fish as well. Continuing their season long domination were the team of Andy and Ricky Medina who weighed a 5 fish limit for a stout 21.10 pounds to take the win. Big bass of the year so far was caught in July! The team of Garrett Macias and Bobby Finta brought a 10.28 giant to the scales. Here are full results and pictures. The boats were lined up like the pits at a drag race. Robert Hitt, Paul Spann and John Bruner were running the show at the scales. Robert Hitt and John Bruner had two for 3.24 David Mulkey and Billy Wilson had two for 4.26 Warren Whitaker and Jay Messersmith had one fish but it was a good one weighing 4.41 James Sharp and Bryan Toombs also had one fish and it also was a good one. She weighed 4.53 Vince Burt and Mark Werner had three for 7.80

Russell Olds fished with special guest Arturo Murga this month. They weighed three for 8.15 including a 4.19. Arturo is a gifted artist and if you read Bassmaster, you see his fine work. He does the illustrations for the magazine. Thanks for coming out Arturo! As mentioned there was a storm approaching. Sometimes lady luck smiles on you and the timing is just right. Cameron Laing and Patrick Sharp weighed three fish for 8.74 but Mother Nature is the star of this picture! Here's Patrick with their kicker, a 5.24! Paul Villarreal and Chris Robinson weighed three for 9.04 David Simmons and David Goth had a limit for 9.99. There seems to be a size differential in their fish... Bubba and Elliott Davis had three for 10.03 No fish in this picture, just a face only a Mother could love. The legendary Jerry Brown. Him and Tony Schnurr weighed a five fish limit for 10.50 and just missed the money. JB and Tony have weighed a limit at every tournament in 2017. No small feat.

Sixth place and a check went to Dale Rettman and Kelly Millhollon who had five for 11.96 Following up their win at Cedar Creek with a fifth place finish were Dennis and Damon Machost with five for 12.42. Way to break in that new Kitty boys! It's not often a two fish stringer gets a check, but when one of them is a 10 pounder it sure helps. Garrett Macias and Bobby Finta had two for 13.20. Here's Bobby with his 10.28 beast! Finishing third were Chris Atkinson and myself with five for 15.90 that included a 4.92 kicker. Nice to get back in the money! Normally when you weigh a 20 pound bag in July, a win is in the cards. So close guys. Second place went to Darrell Rose and Teddy Pecina with a great limit that weighed 20.05. Their big fish was 4.44. Just a big ol sack of 4 pounders! Andy and Ricky Medina have been finishing in the money all year and they broke through at Lavon with a win. Their monster limit of 21.10 was anchored by a 7.30 and a 6.79 kickers. Congratulations gentlemen! Here's Ricky with the 7.30 toad. Thanks as always to our great crew of Officers! David Simmons for being there ridiculously early to start registration. Robert, John and Paul for handling weigh in. Our next tournament will be Saturday August 12th on Lake Fork launching from Pope's Landing. See you there!

For those of you that got screwed by Photobucket who took a free service and decided to try and charge us 400 bucks a year to post photos here on TFF, we have found an alternative! And it's free! Thank you to http://postimages.org/

Here's a closer look at Bobby's double digit. I chose the other picture because Arturo was also taking pictures and that's his arm in the photo.
