[ronfishunt]

Hey Guys: Here are the results of Week 18 of the Wednesday Afternoon Fishing Dogfights.

The start of Week Eighteen's tournament was right on schedule. The on and off rain in the area kept the attendance down again this week. The fishermen voted to end the tournament at 8:30. Below are the results of week 18:

1st Place Team was the duo of Kevin Booty & Willard Booty with a outstanding 5 fish limit that weighed in at 8.05 pounds. Their stringer was anchored by Willard's Big Bass of the tournament a nice 2.28 pounder. Willard won Wendi's Flower Cart Dozen Roses for catching the Big Bass. They caught their bass of the tournament on chug bugs and wacky worms on the West Fork. They reported catching around 13 bass in the 3 hour 45 minute tournament. They qualified for the Championship in September where in that Championship Tournament the highest placing team trailering their boat to and from the landing with a Toyota Truck or SUV they will win a one day guided fishing trip with Joe Joslin on Toledo Bend from Joe Joslin Outdoors and Lake Charles Toyota. Their total earnings of the night was $270.

2nd Place Team was awardedto Doug Guins & Josh Byrd for their 5 fish limit that weighed 6.85 pounds. They had a respectable stringer anchored with their biggest fish a 2.08 pounder which earned them $25 from the Wendi's Flower Cart Bonus Cash. They caught around 15 fish in the southern part of the main River and in the West Fork on a chug bug and crank baits. They were the highest placing team with a Toyota Truck and was awarded $100 Toyota Bonus Cash from Lake Charles Toyota. For their effort they were awarded $195.

3rd Place Team was Buddy Pesson & Steve Goff with a 5 fish stringer that weighed 5.87 pounds. Their stringer was anchored with a 2.01 pounder. They captured most of their fish on chug bugs.

The contestants were treated to door prizes from Lake Charles Tackle and Seven-O-Electric. This upcoming week remember if you purchase anything from Parkside Marina ask them for a receipt then write your name on the back of the receipt and drop it in the container marked Parkside Drawing. From those receipts we will draw for a 6 pack of your choice at the end of the tournament. Josh Byrd was the lucky 6 pack recipient this week.
