June 6,2004 Lake Powell greeted anglers with bright blue skies and afternoon temps above 100 degrees for our 4th tournament of the season.  

As in the past Powell lived up to expectations, once again giving up 5 fish limits to all teams.  The team of Randy Weems and Greg Gorce from Flagstaff AZ brought in the winning bag with 10.56 lbs. and a big fish for 2.96 lbs. Randy and Greg reported having one of those perfect days on the water that we all dream about. For their efforts Randy and Greg took home $1,705.00 in prize money, 2 first place plaques a big fish plaque a trolling motor snugger from John's Troller Snugger and a couple of well deserved smiles.  2nd place honors went to the legands of the Lake Jim Bishop and Bill Carlquist from Colorado with a 9.86 lb. bag including a big fish at 2.67 lbs.   Murph McBride and Ryan Stever from Pioche NV brought in 8.83 lbs. for 3rd place and a big fish at 2.46 lbs. The top 3 winning teams reported that most of their fish were caught using top water baits, crankbaits, jerkbaits, jigs and grubs.

The Lake Powell Division made history at this event with our first ever ladies team. Melanie Mcbride and Rhonda Cummings teamed up to put the hurt on several of our best anglers.Both women have husbands who also compete in Anglers Choice events and if memory serves me correctley one of these husbands is going to be doing alot of house cleaning for the next year.(some sort of side bet?) Hope your trip home was fun! Rhonda and Melanie weighed in with 8.31 lbs. for an 8th place finish. Awsome job ladies!
