Sodus Bay Tournament Results 6/17/2006

Today was opening day of Bass Season here in New York and our first tournament of our regular season. We had 29 anglers show up for this event. Weather conditions in the morning were cloudy with a forecast being in the 90’s. Water temps were in the high 60’s and low 70’s.

Out of the 29 anglers we had 19 come in with a limit of bass. Everyone caught fish to bring to the scales. Most of the anglers stayed right in Sodus Bay. Reports from the fishermen on the tackle used were as follows...The early morning bite was top water, later on during the day switching to other baits such as senkos, plastic worms and jigs. No one reported catching fish with a spinnerbait or crankbait. None of the anglers shared the colors that were used.
