Chris Huselton topped 58 boaters fishing the Mr. Bass of Arkansas
2010 season opener by catching 5 bass that weighed 16.05 pounds.
Cold, murky water made for a tough bite on Greers Ferry Lake and
very few 5-bass limits crossed the scales. Here's how the top 3
Pro's caught their bass:

Mr. Bass of Arkansas Tournament Set for DeGray Lake

Mr. Bass of Arkansas will be on Lake Degray this weekend. It
promises to be a slugfest as some big sacks have been caught in
the last few days! We will meet at the Caddo Valley Fire Station
Saturday evening. Please sign in before 5:30 so we can get
everyone paired up as quickly as possible. We learned from some
mistakes we made at Greer’s Ferry and think it will run much
smoother this time. Official Housing is Iron Mountain Marina and we’
ll take off from there on Sunday morning. See y’all Saturday!

Thanks,

Randy Verboon
