SAFER FISHING TOURNAMENT IN FLORIDA EVERGLADES
Big bass

Lots of small bass
have been biting in Everglade canals, but there are enough big bass
out there to make things interesting.
On a day when most of the 115-boat field caught limits of fish 2-3
pounds, Rick Burton and
Jim Anderson caught five bass weighing 26.36
pounds to win the fifth annual "Save Our Canals" bass tournament
Sunday held by the South Florida Anglers For Everglades Restoration
out of Everglades Holiday Park.
Burton, of Wellington, and Anderson, of Davie, said they fished
in the L-67A Canal, which runs from Holiday Park to Tamiami Trail.
They started off catching a limit of fish on Zara Spooks.
When the topwater bite slowed as the sun came up, they switched to
pitching and flipping a
Berkley Power Craw around lily pads and
tight to the reeds lining the canal.
"We were running and gunning," Anderson said. "We caught fish at
every stop that we made. We probably made a total of seven stops.
"We jumped from spot to spot. We were just looking for whatever
looked good and looked fishy."
They ended up culling their original limit and finished with a
4-pounder, two 5-pounders and two fish over 6 pounds, including a
6.24-pounder. They won $1,380.
Alex Picos and Rene Gonzalez had the biggest payday. They won $920
for finishing second at 24.89 and $690 for catching the biggest bass
at 7.37 for a total of $1,610.
Bryan Windle and Vince Owen won $575 for third at 22.73, followed by
Mike Ryan and Bruce Austin at 20.47 ($460) and Jon Farmer and Ed
Knorr at 19.92 ($379.50).
