Stan & Mary Hall WIN at Coleto Creek!

At CAST South Region’s second tournament of the season the weather once

again decided to play nice and cooperate. Sunday’s highs were in the upper

60’s after a cool and cloudy morning with occasional rain. With such a great

forecast who wouldn’t want to be out on the lake fishing?

Last year’s Angler’s of the Year, Stan & Mary Hall, took full advantage of

the excellent south Texas February weather to continue just as they left off

last season, with a tournament victory! Stan & Mary’s five-fish limit tipped

the scales at 13.64 pounds. A very significant accomplishment; considering

how cold the weather had been up until today. One of the Halls’ fish weighed

in at an impressive 6.54 pounds, taking home the Big Bass check and trophy.

Stan said most of their fish were caught in water eight to ten feet deep.

Second place honors went to a veteran couple from the CAST South Region, Larry & Patt Martin. Larry & Patt’s five fish limit weighed 13.46 pounds. The Halls and the Martins are always very close when it comes to our tournaments. This event saw the two couples separated by less than two-tenths of a pound! Close is an understatement! Patt said it was a tough bite all day, with most of their fish being caught shallow.

The final podium spot, (maybe I watched too much Olympic coverage), went to

Gary & Lynn Brooks, with another excellent five fish stringer weighing 13.23

pounds!

The next CAST South Region tournament will be Sunday, March 14th at beautiful

Lake Amistad. We should be there just in time to catch some of the biggest bass

of the year! We hope to see everyone at the tournament.

While you are at Lake Amistad don’t forget to stop in at The Angler’s Lodge to

visit with Carl & Diane Wengenroth. Carl & Diane are once again helping to

support CAST’s Academic Scholarship Fund drive. They are donating a two night
