Piedmont Bass Classics Results
February 26, 2011
Shearon Harris 'Open'

What a great day for fishing in February! Air temps ranged from 34 to 55 degrees and water temps
averaged 50. For our 1st open of 2011, we had a whopping 37 boats show up to attack Harris! What a great
turnout! I want to thank all of our anglers and our sponsors for supporting this trail!
Story of the day: Bass were caught on every kind of lure you can think of, except top water (didn't hear of
any). We had 3 bass over 8 lbs. with the biggest being caught on a 'secret' crank bait. 2nd biggest was
caught on a Rat-L-Trap. Most all fish were caught in 6 to 7 feet of water in grassy areas. 100 bass were
weighed in totalling 243 pounds. All fish were released alive!
The next tournament will also be at Shearon Harris on March 5th. This event is the 1st in a series of 7
qualifying tournaments for the 'Piedmont Bass Classics $5,000 Bass Tournament Trail'. I hope to see all of
you on the 5th! Now here are the Feb. 26th results:
