Arjay’s Report

Ryan Hershberger - 1st Place

Anglers in the Arjay’s Wednesday night circuit ran into another tough night last week, as not one limit was weighed in at Barton Lake.

In fact, Ryan Hershberger won with only three bass weighing 6.20 pounds while fishing solo with wacky worms.

Steven Wickey and Jeremiah Yoder - 2nd Place and Big Bass

Steven Wickey and Jeremiah Yoder were second with two bass that weighed 5.60 pounds, but one of those was the Tackle Shack LLC big bass of the evening at 4.52 pounds. They fished docks and shorelines.

Justin and Dave Kosmerick - 3rd Place

Justin Kosmerick fished with his dad, (Dave), who was subbing for Hunter and finished third. They had three that tied for second but they dropped to third by way of the big bass tiebreaker. They used wacky rigs on grasslines.

Charlie Fouts and Ray Lohr - 4th Place

Fourth place went to Charlie Fouts and Ray Lohr with three fish for 5.30 pounds. They fished drop-shot rigs on grass edges.

The ClearH2O Tackle first out of the money for sixth went to Martin Hochstetler and Jonas Troyer with 3.90 pounds while Timothy Eicher and Daniel Schwartz took home the Michiana Outdoors News Tackle Pack with 2.70 pounds for seventh place.

Scott and Carrigan Carpenter used a 3.54-pound northern pike to win the Jaywalker junk fish pot.
