Results

1ST PLACE: Mike Davis of Southside and Bobby Bellew of Gadsden came to the scales with a nice bag of fish that weighed 18.56 and walked off with a paycheck of $1500. They spent their day on the lower end of Weiss Lake pitching a 4" Zoom worm under the numerous piers in Yellow Creek.

2nd PLACE: Adam Brown and Jason Grape both of Gadsden came in with a limit of fish that weighed 15.47 and was awarded a check of $660. They also fished down lake using three different patterns. The team started with their top water pattern in the morning, then went to the piers to flip and finished by cranking the ledges. Adam and Jason who had won our last Neely Henry tournament, moved back on top in the standings for the race for Anglers of the Year.

3rd PLACE: Darren Oliver of Anniston and Andy Lash of Wellington also came in with a nice limit that weighed 14.95 and awarded a check of $600. They also had the Big Bass of the tournament which weighed 5.24 and added another $390 to their payday. The team used a Poe's 400 crankbait and a Red Shad Zoom U tail worm. They fished long points on the lower end with their boat in 14 - 15 foot of water with most of the bites coming in 7 - 12 foot of water.

Thanks and appreciation to the N.E. Alabama Team Sponsors:
Jim Shank and Krystal Restaurants, Doug Campbell and Waterfront Tackle, Lee Pitts and the Gaylesville Pitt Stop, ZOOM Bait Company, Ottis Toney and Rainbow Marina and Pasquales Pizza, and Tony Lane of the Hawg's Den who also hosted our tournament.

Thank you to Community Sports Network who were also there to film our tournament and a very special thanks to the North Cobb County Bassmasters out of Georgia who were also having a club tournament at the Hawg's Den. After experiencing a small problem with my scales, they were kind enough to hang around an extra hour with their scale to lend me, if in the event that my scales had failed, I appreciate that very much and I hope to see a few of them in our upcoming tournaments.
