Good news from Lake Dardanelle. :dance01: Joey Fisher who writes about fishing in the local paper(The Courier) reported in his Sunday column that even with the influx of rain, the cold weather, sleet and snow, that some of the weights in local tourneys has been good. The winning weight for the ATU Fishing Club Open was a 5 limit weight of over 24 pounds and that second place had over 22 pounds. The winner of the monthly open tourney directed by Randy Whorton on Feb. 3rd weighed five bass at 22.29 pounds! This is good news for a lake that, as I have mentioned before, has fought its way back from the dreaded large mouth bass virus. From some of the catches I had last year and the results of these two early tournys, Dardanelle may have turned the corner and may be in for a very good year. Joey's outdoor column appears every Sunday and even though he is a part time writer for the paper, he's pretty knowledgable and has good info. For those how may be interested, the website for The Courier is www.couriernews.com :fishing01: :fishing02:
