Winners Tonkel and HoyerWinners Tonkel and HoyerBud Tonkel (Ashley, Ind.) and Quinn Hoyer (Angola, Ind.) outdueled 52 other teams to win the R&B Circuit tourney on the Randall Chain in Coldwater, Mich.

The winners had a 14.69-pound limit, including a 5.31 beast that earned them the Money Mouth Baits Big Bass prize and a $1,225 total payoff for their dayĆ­s work. They caught all of their keepers from one small weed bed in a 40-minute span.

The big fish fell for a wacky-rigged Senko while the rest were caught on a combination of Senkos and jigs.

Mark Farver (Goshen) and Steve Kline (Albion, Ind.) landed 13.03 pounds to claim the second-place money ($505). Four of their keepers were caught with jigs while another was tricked by a C Flash crankbait.

Paul Hargens and Adam Pflueger (Fort Wayne) were third ($365) with 12.49 pounds caught on Texas-rigged, green pumpkin worms and swim jigs.

The next event will be at Gull Lake, Mich. July 19. More information can be found at www.randbbasscircuit.com
