The Camp Mack Team Trail held the final event of the year before their end of season classic on Sunday September 28th. 19 teams showed up to try their luck on the largest chain of lakes in the state.
William Weil and William Farmer hold up their 10.10-lb. and 9.50 lb. linkers
For the team of Mike and Matt Bedenbaugh, luck was on their side. With rising water levels due to recent rains, the father/son duo whacked a 30.65-lb., 6 fish limit to triumph over the rest of the field.
William Weil and William Farmer led the event until the Bedenbaugh’s set their bag on the scale. Weil and Farmer pulled in a 28.90-lb., 6 fish limit, with 2 monster bass anchoring their bag. Their biggest bass, a 10.10-lb. giant won the tournament’s Big Bass award. Their other Trophy Catch quality bass weighed in at 9.50 lbs.
Richie Upchurch and Darrell Cranor rounded out the Top 3 with a 23.75-lb., 6 fish limit.
Here’s the rest of the Top 10:
Chandler Cornelius holds up his 8.95-lb. Trophy Catch Lunker
Notable: Chandler Cornelius and Jason Liggett only weighed one fish for the event, an 8.95-lb. lunker. That fish led the event for Big Bass until Weil and Farmer weighed in. Even though they didn’t cash a check in the event, that fish qualifies them for the Trophy Catch program. For more information on the Trophy Catch program, visit www.trophycatchflorida.com.
