Pomme de Terre Tourney Results:
Truman took first place at the College
Tournament at Pomme de Terre the weekend
of March 30th. They won with just one fish that
was caught by David Niese in muddy water, this
was the only fish caught out of their four man
team. It was 2.78lbs. The water was dropping a
half a foot a day and the water temperature
46-47 degrees. This was due to the huge storm
they had the night before the tournament, this
made the water conditions tough and the bite
tougher.
