Tough conditions for Renegade Bass Classic

Forty teams participated in the Renegade Bass Classic XX held this year in Morrisburg. Although Renegade Bass tournaments have experienced some amazing tournaments here in Morrisburg in the past, the participants this year generally said that weather conditions made for tough fishing. Although the fishing was tough, there were still some great catches, like this 6.12 pound large mouth bass that the team named Linda. This was the big fish of the tournament snagged by Jack Lavert (pictured) and teammate Steve Barnett. Although they nabbed the big fish, the team finished 23rd. “The weather really put a hurtin’ on us,” said Lavert. The Renegade Bass Classic XX was won by David Chong and Doug Brownridge who over the two-day event weighed in 45.66 pounds of bass.
