Potholes Bass Club holds two-day tournament

OTHELLO – The Potholes Bass Club hosted its two-day tournament on the Potholes Reservoir over the weekend. “It was just a great weekend to be out there and fish,” Club President Paul Harmon said. The tournament began early Saturday morning, with anglers blasting off from the MarDon Resort and hitting the Potholes Reservoir. Twenty-five boats entered the tournament, which Harmon said was low for typical PBC tournaments. “We had a lot of cooperation,” Harmon said. “There were only 25 boats – a pretty small turnout.” Anglers found success on the waters of the Potholes Reservoir, with the top three teams all finishing with total weights north of 34 pounds. “It wasn't bad, we caught a lot of fish,” Harmon said. “There's a lot of big ones caught. Some good weights.” Harmon said that the water level at the reservoir was low, but anglers were able to avoid major troubles in terms of getting stuck. “The water was really low, but nobody got really stuck on a sandbar,” he said. “They were able to push themselves out and not having to have somebody come and tow them off.” ...
