MAY 3, 2020 | 169 Boat Field
The 2020 season for Anglers in Action at Lake of the Ozarks is now complete. A total of 169 teams arrived at PB2 ramp for a 6am takeoff Sunday morning. With social distancing guidelines in place for this event, there were no crowds at registration and weigh-in was moved from PB2 to a drive-thru format at the PaHeTsi parking lot. Once teams loaded up at PB2 that afternoon, they made their way over to PaHeTsi, pulled their rigs in front of the AiA stage and had there fish weighed. We want to thank you all for making it a smooth transition and adhering to the social distancing guidelines.
There were a total of 471 bass weighed in Sunday, which included 75 five fish limits. Once the bass came across the scales, they were put into the AFTCO BASS BUS, where there were cared for during the event. All fish were then transported back out to the tournament waters, where they were released alive and healthy, ready to catch another day. Thanks to Bryce and Mark with Ulrich Marine for managing the AFTCO BASS BUS during the event.
Terry Bradley and Matt Gunter brought the heaviest sack across the scales Sunday, with 5 bass that pushed the AiA scales down to 22.78 lbs. They reported catching all there fish shallow, flipping Chomper's jigs and soft plastics. Matt and Terry took home a total of $6,550 in Anglers in Action winnings, plus $7,000 in additional incentive money. Congratulations on your win gentlemen!
Big Bass of the event and second place overall went to the team of Brock Reinkemeyer and Brad Jelinek. They just missed first place, with 5 bass that weighed in at 22.74 lbs., including a giant that tipped the scales at 7.81 lbs. Brad and Brock won a total of $4,874. Congrats guys!
