Lake Belton Water temperature Started at 50.1 degrees and soared to 52.3 degrees that made the bite tough as evidence of the weights brought to the scales. Expected strong winds and rain made for a challenging derby but with all the steep banks and rock formations is was easy to find fish-able water.
Rickey Bishop Led the way with a 1st Place finish 8.18 lbs.said he was catching them on purple swim baits. (sounds like a fish tale to me)
2nd place Thomas Ferro with 7.37 lbs.
3rd place Jose Ramos with 7.17 lbs.
4th George Bryan with 6.69 lbs
5th Chad Petrie with 5.93 lbs.
Big Bass 5.37 lbs went to George Bryan
I will say that Lake Belton should be Awesome for the State Tournament coming up this April 26 – 27, come and join us.
Thanks to all that fished and Cecil Tubbs for doing the weight in
