Sardis
Lake Bass Tournament
September
6, 2025
Members
of the Pushmataha County Sportsman Club held a bass tournament on Saturday, September
6. The tournament was held on Sardis
Lake. Twenty-two anglers participated in the event.
Anglers
enjoyed cool temperatures at the start of the tournament that warmed up to the mid-seventies. As is typical with Sardis, there was a steady
breeze most of the day. The lake level was slightly below normal with a water
temperature in the upper eighties.
Catching quality keeper bass proved to be a challenge for most of the
anglers although a couple of members did manage to boat a couple of very nice
bass. Fifteen anglers were able to catch
a limit of five bass.
Ellis
Silvey won the tournament with a stringer weight of 14.64 pounds. Chuck Beck placed second with a stringer
weight of 12.83 pounds. Judd Thomas
finished in third place with a stringer weight of 11.75 pounds. The big bass of the tournament was caught by
Terry Thurman. It weighed 4.60 pounds.
The club’s
next and final regular season tournament will be held on Saturday, September 20,
at Hugo Lake. If the lake is too low to launch from Frazier Point, the tournament
will be changed to McGee Creek Lake at the Potapo Ramp. Any change will be
posted on our Facebook page on Thursday before the tournament. Fishing times will be voted on at the club’s
monthly meeting on Thursday, September 11.
