When you have two teams that have
won the first six events, 3 apiece, you just expect
it to continue. Low and behold, one of the teams that
have been around the top all year decided enough is
enough. Team Johnson and Cottom brought in five fish
for 12.72 lbs, which included the Big Bass at 5.06
lbs. With a three-pound plus advantage, they left
no doubt that they wanted this win. What a way to
end the season and be on a roll going into the Championship
at Clear Lake.
However, not to be denied, the team
of Rizuto and Ragsdale secured second place with 5
fish for 9.36 lbs. This also gave them the AOY for
the Four Corners area. This team stayed focus all
year on the Championship where all the AOY teams will
fish for an added pot worth 15K. This on top of three
boats makes this the best paying circuit in country.
Team Jordan and Carver brought in four fish for 8.86
lbs. good for third place. They received the Lucky
Loser option pot for first out of the money. Actually,
Sandy and Shelley were the recipients of this check
because their men folk are too cheap to pay for the
options. The ladies have been well paid for their
risks this season.
Just a word to anyone reading this that has been thinking
about joining Anglers Choice but cannot decide which
area he or she want to fish. Look no further than
the Four Corners area circuit. We start during the
winter and fish until the summer. Where else can you
fish all seasonal cycles and catch the quality fish
we do. Please write or call for info. I will get the
next year schedule up ASAP so keep checking back.

another team circuit.
