ASBERRY AND FRANCIS HAUL IN GIANT SACK OF 26.53 LBS. TO WIN 3RD STOP AT LAKE OF THE OZARKS
Lake of the Ozarks - April 14, 2019
What a day it was at the 3rd stop of the Anglers in Action trail at Lake of the Ozarks. The 113 teams were greeted to 35 degrees Sunday morning with rain that switched over to snow around 5am. After the wintry morning, the afternoon turned out great, with sunshine and temps around 60 degrees.
The fishing on Lake of the Ozarks is definitely heating up as well. Ten bags over 20 lbs. were weighed in Sunday, and it took over 18 lbs. just to get in the check line. Kobe Asberry and Clay Francis were one of those over 20 lbs. They hammered Lake of the Ozarks for five fish that weighed in at a massive 26.53 lbs. Kobe and Clay reported catching their fish on jigs, spinnerbaits, and the a-rig. They took home a total of $3,900.00.
