Rick Kedik (South Bend) and Scott Crocker (Niles) won the Casting Couples Open held at Lake St. Clair last weekend.

The duo had 19.70 pounds of smallmouth to win $300. They caught their fish on tubes fished in one area where the water was 13 to 15 feet deep.

Mike and Tiffanie Weaver of Wabash, Ind. were second ($160) with a limit weighing 18.69 pounds. They won a bonus $90 for big bass, a 4.27 pound smallmouth. They fished drop shot rigs in 12- to 14-feet of water.

Chris Maynard (Osceola) and Rich Fletcher (Mishawaka) were third ($80) with 17.34 pounds. They fished tubes all day.

Kedit said it was a sunny day with light winds and a Mayfly hatch in bloom. Water temperature was in the high 60s.

The next regular season Casting Couples event is July 11 at Long Lake located northeast of Kalamazoo. Call Kedik (269-240-4917) or visit the group’s facebook page, Michianacastingcouples, for more information.
