The Dukester shakes up a limit at Kerr

      Kerr Lake was host to Leesville BASSMaster's second tournament of the season.  Given the heavy rains we've had late winter/early spring, Kerr had been swollen as much as 10 feet above normal pool of 300 for several weeks.  However, a let up in the rains allowed the Corps to bring the level back down to just short of 302, which is perfect for this time of year.  We launched from the Hibernia ramp with partly cloudy skies, a moderate NW wind, and temps in the low 50s rising to near bluebird conditions and temps near 60 at weigh-in.  Water temps at blast-off were just over 50 degrees and members reported water temps ranging from 53 to 57 degrees by weigh-in. 
      After all fish had been brought to the scales, Duke Bevard scored his first win for the year with a five fish limit of 9.22 lbs.  Following closely behind in second was Wes House (3 fish, 8.82 lbs) who took big fish honors for the day with a 6.05 lbs chunk.  Third place went to club rookie Duke Ellis (2 fish, 6.95 lbs).  Duke Bevard caught most of his fish shaky heading a Watermelon Seed trick worm in shallow water in the backs of coves.
      Our next tournament brings us back to Kerr Lake again, this time launching from Henderson Point.  We're expecting to find fish in all modes of the spawn, and look forward to another great day on the water.
