BUELTMANN & VERHOEF TOP 112 BOAT FIELD WITH 22.34 LBS AT LAKE OF THE OZARKS
The final regular season tournament in the Lake of the Ozarks division is now in the books. 112 boats gathered at the PB2 ramp in Osage Beach, MO on Sunday, ready to hit the water. A thick blanket of fog greeted the anglers, which led to a delay in take off Sunday. Around 7am, teams blasted off from PB2, in search of 5 big bass to bring across the AiA scales that afternoon.
Rob Bueltmann and Ben Verhoef were one of those teams looking for 5 good bites Sunday, and they found them. Ben and Rob hammered Lake of the Ozarks for 22.34 lbs., which was enough to seal the win at the final regular season event of the Lake of the Ozarks division. They reported catching a big one early Sunday on topwater, then switched over to a Carolina rig to haul in the remainder of their bass. They took home a total of $3,680.00 for their win. Congratulations gentlemen!
Michael Montgomery and James Frank had a great year, and they won the Bassing Bob Lake of the Ozarks division points race with 928 points. James and Michael had a total weight of 73.40 lbs. over 4 events. They'll take home $500, courtesy of Bassing Bob. Visit www.bassingbob.com for all of your Lake of the Ozarks fishing information.
