Best Catch Report

The Best Catch Couples tournament group braved the elements last weekend at Duke’s Bridge (Waldron Chain) and the fish cooperated.

Nearly all of the teams weighed in fish and most were caught near the weed edges on soft plastics, jigs and a few chatterbaits.

Marti and Randy Walls - 1st Place

Marti and Randy Walls won with a 13-pound, 13-ounce limit that included the big bass of the tournament, a 3-pound, 5-ounce largemouth.

Marci and John Dixon - 3rd Place

Second place was Mark Flotow and daughter Brooke Gearheart with 11-6 and Marci and John Dixon were third with 9-10.

The next event is July 17 on the Constantine stretch of the St. Joseph River. Hours are 6:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. For more information, call Randy Walls, 219-221-1109.
