Moose and Son Win Bass-Jons Nottoway River Tournament

1st – Carlton “Moose” Wells and Joseph Wells

 The 6th Bass-Jons tournament of the year took place on the Nottaway River.  The 13 teams that fished brought ten 5-fish limits to the scales.  Many teams reported catching high numbers of fish, but the river did not give up any huge fish.  Moose and Joey Wells won the tournament weighing in 5 fish for 9 lbs – 12ozs.  The teams of Romel Soriano / James Brown (JB) and Dan Griffin / Mike Peregrine tied for big fish with a 2 lbs – 14oz “hawg”.  Overall results were better than some of the more recent tournaments held on the river.  Good job Bass-Jons!  The weather was warm and bright, and surface water temps started at 71 and were up to 86 by the end of the day.  Most members reported fish being taken on plastics, and jigs.  Some were able to find a crankbait or topwater bite.  Some reported seeing a few bass still on beds and plenty of fry with no fish guarding them.  A great day on the water and everyone caught fish!  View the full results and pictures on http://www.bassjons.com.  Top Ten:

1st – Jerry Patterson and Josh Williams

2nd – Bryan Dear

3rd – Moose Wells and Adrin Wells

4th and Big Fish – Chaz Carrington and Steve Loveless

BassJons fished their fifth tournament of the year at Western Branch Reservoir.  The hot temps and sunny conditions made for a great day to be on the water, although the windy conditions did put a damper on the anticipated sight-fishing pattern.  Most reports had fish being caught off the beds on jigs and plastics, with a few others having success catching fish guarding fry or ”regular” fishing with senkos.  Top 10:
