The Ray Hubbard Bass Club held our fifth tournament of 2020 last Saturday August 8th on Lake Fork. Well it was August in Texas so the temperature was close to 100 but at least there was a breeze to help a little. Despite that we still had 41 boats come out to fish. The fishing was pretty tough for unders but there were three overs brought to the scales. When we were done, the team of Tommy Climer and Michael Yates won the day with a five fish limit that weighed 14.66 pounds and included the big bass of the tournament, an 8.88 monster. My apologies to all as with the sun straight overhead the shadow of everyone's hats made your faces too dark. I did the best I could but some are not great. Here are full results and pictures



You have to have a sense of humor fishing a tournament on Fork when things don't go well. Well played Vince!



Fishing his first RHBC tournament was Beau Mills. His family came out to weigh in. Great to see that!



It took some convincing to get guys to take pictures. Thanks to Tony Bryant for being a good sport



Mountain man Chris Lewis and Phillip Green weighed in two



James Clifton and Tommy Yates had a solid under that went 2.27



Great to have Herman Larkin back with us! He and Eric Giles had three for 2.76



Dennis and Damon Machost weighed a limit



Michael Parkes, both of them weighed in four for the day



Garrett Macias and Bobby Finta with another top 10 finish. They had a 2.38 under

Chris Atkinson and myself scratched out a limit with a couple decent ones



Paul Villarreal and Joe Ruiz with five that went 6.80



Another in the money finish for Brian Brooks and Steve Parrish with 7 pounds even. Yes, I know, I should have taken all the pictures there...



Jeff Cartwright and Jay Messersmith got fifth with a limit of 7.43 but Jay declined a picture

Fourth went to Randy and Howard Bunch. They only had two but one was this 6.85 over



Finishing third with an outstanding bag of unders that went 9.46 were James Sharp and Eddy Wooldridge



Second place went to last years Fork winners, Clark Crenshaw and Roddy Bieber with five for 11.75



For the second year in a row they caught an over. This one weighed 8.80 and is Roddy's personal best. Congrats!



Here are your winners. Tommy Climer and Michael Yates with a great Fork sack of 14.66. Well done gents!



Michael's 8.88 over was big bass of the tournament



Thanks to Chris Atkinson, Paul Spann, James and Shellye Crawford and Cameron Laing for keeping the car on the road! Great job! Our next tournament is Saturday September 12th at Cedar Creek going out of Log Cabin. Hope to see you there!

I know the survey results aren't do out until the 23rd but does anyone know which lakes are winning?

Last I heard, White Rock had a commanding lead.

I’m not surprised Messersmith didn’t want a photo. Isn’t he wanted in 5 or 6 states?

12 :P

Heard yall are going to Falcon for the RHBC Championship.

Well, the members thought Falcon was too close so I'm pretty sure we're going to Lake Okeechobee in Florida.
