Mike Blalock & Deanna Phillips win on Lake Russell
Mike & Deanna are making a strong run for the points this year with their second first place finish. They were just one of the 29 teams that braved the cold and wind of December to compete on Lake Russell. The following round out the top 5 teams who earned a placement check along with Men’s Big Fish, Ladies Big Fish and Berkeley’s Smallest 5 Five Fish Limit:
1st – Mike Blalock & Deanna Phillips, 5 fish, 13.45 lbs.
2nd – Dale & Victoria Goff, 5 fish, 13.01 lbs.
3rd – Joe Anders & Shianne Parker, 5 fish, 11.43 lbs.
4th – Bo & Jessica Price, 5 fish, 11.34 lbs.
5th – Chris Seigler & Wanda Walker-Reuss, 5 fish, 9.80 lbs.
Men’s Big Fish– Dale Goff, 4.11 lbs.
Ladies Big Fish – Kim Johnson, 2.96 lbs.
Berkeley Outdoors Marine sponsored Smallest 5 fish limit – Donald Brooks & Melanie Blair, 6.14 lbs.
We were glad to see that 23 of the 29 teams were able to weigh in a limit of fish given the tough conditions with 100% of the fish released alive.
