keith monson and jarrod hembree won with a total of 14lbs. they won 2500 for 1st place. the top 16 ranged from 14lbs to 6, there were lots and lots of low weights.

Can anyone tell us what patterns were the most sucessfull and were there any nice smallmouth caught? Planning on going down to cumberland in a few days and looking for any info that could give us a starting point would be helpful. Thanks.

lol, the fishing is just flat out tought right now. there were some decent bags caught, but overall these were very low weights for a 150 boat tournament. i think the best advice would be to slow way down and fish very thouroghly. there were some smallmouth but not many. the smallmouth wont really make a big impact on tournaments untill the water temps get down into the 50's. if you are looking for smallmouth your best shot is early in the morning on the lower end of the lake. good luck.
