Members of the Pushmataha County Sportsman Club started their bass tournament on Sardis Lake with a stiff breeze and very warm temperatures. The tournament was held on Saturday, June 13. The wind continued to blow for the entire tournament and the temperature warmed into the low nineties. The lake was about five inches above normal. Twenty members were competing in the tournament. The bite was slow for some but others were able to put together some nice stringers. Ten members were able to catch and weigh a limit of five bass.
Chuck Beck won the tournament with five bass that weighed
13.74 pounds. Coming in second was Daniel
Miller with a stringer weight of 10.77 pounds.
Billy Latham finished in third place. His stringer weighed 10.53 pounds. Billy also caught the big bass of the
tournament. It weighed 3.77 pounds.
The club’s next event will be a bass tournament on Pine
Creek Lake. It will be held on Saturday, June 27. Fishing times will be from “safe light” until
3:00 pm. Launch site will be at Lost Rapids Park.
