"Tug Valley Bass Anglers Norris Lake Club Classic Presented by Hutch Chevrolet" Well, guys, as another fishing season winds to a close, Tug Valley Bass Anglers fished their final event of the year. The much-anticipated CLASSIC, out of the Powell Valley Marina on Norris Lake in Tenn. Our Anglers awakened, both Sat. Nov. 2nd and Sun. Nov. 3rd to below-freezing temperatures of 30 to 31 degrees. This coupled with 64-degree water temperatures resulted in a dense fog that failed to lift until nearly 11.00 a.m. With dropping lake levels at 17ft. below summer pool, crystal clear water, bluebird skies and windless days, competing anglers were faced with some extremely trying conditions. Although no exceptional fish were boated, our guys managed to bring in some beautiful examples of both largemouth and smallmouth in the 18 to 19-inch range. Stories abound of huge fish breaking lines, coming unbuttoned, pulling off, etc. We seemed to have been a little unprepared for the caliber of fish we were being asked to contend with. Fishing seemed to have been a little off for the time of year since reaction baits didn't seem to be as effective as slower presentations. Shad did not seem to be concentrated in the creeks as would be expected and it seems more fish were caught from laydowns and wood on the main lake. This being said, we would like to congratulate our winning anglers on their perseverance and tenacity in unraveling the mystery that is bass fishing! Great job guys! Congratulations!!!!! The top finishers are as follows: 1st- Kevin Caudill - 11.78 2nd- Brandon Staten - 10.99 3rd- Tommy Hopkins - 10.35 4th- Brandon Maynard - 10.10 5th- Keith Pacific - 10.03 6th- Eric Swafford - 9.73 6th- Don Taylor - 9.73 8th- Mike Patrick - 7.47 9th- Lynn Fields - 6.25 10th- Kevin Marcum - 5.83 |
