August 16, 2009 - From Division 66 in central Kansas August 16, 2009 Gale Brown is one step closer to the ABA National Championship with a 1st place win and $390 in the American Fishing Tour bass tournament held on El Dorado Lake this past weekend. Gale’s 4 bass limit weighed in at 8.25 pounds. Second place went to Larry Gawith with a weight of 7.66 pounds, and third place was Jim Vaught with a weight of 4.00 pounds. Big bass and $75 was awarded to Gale Brown for catching a 3.18 pound large mouth.
These anglers are acquiring valuable points to insure their birth in division’s two-day champion and the American Fishing Tour National Championship that will be held this fall. Their points are also being used to determine the divisional angler of the year. The top angler by points earned in this division will represent the division in the Angler of the Year final round.
