Titelok shrink wrap team of Ronnie Capps and Steve Coleman did what others thought they would not be able to do.  Slow trolling Lake Conway and winning the tournament.  Lake Conway known for its timber did not stop the team from doing the work it would take to troll the lake.  The tactic paid off as they weighed in 28.41 lbs over the two days to be 3.5 lbs over their closest competitor. They stated they used double hook minnow rigs, got to put some time in on the lake this year and targeted female fish.  They located 5 spots that had females and the fish were staging around deep water structure. The fish hadn't spawned but were ready.  They fished slow using Humminbird electronics,  Capps & Coleman BnM poles, double minnow rigs,  3/8 wts with #2 hook and Titelok rod holders.  The team won $4000.00 for their efforts. Second place went to Marvin and Roy Deckard from Missouri.  The team was sitting in 4th place after day one having weighed in 11.60 lbs.  Day two they weighed in 13.60 for a two day total of 25.20 lbs.  The Bucksaw Marina team from Truman Lake stated they struggled some during pre fishing.   They were fishing 6-10 foot waters around green cypress trees.  They fished shadow sides and didn’t stay on stumps with no bite.  Day two they moved to another area where no one was fishing the cypress trees.  They used Vicious line, Mid South jigs tipped with minnows and Rocky Top weedless jig heads.  They won $2000.00 for second place.  Mid South jigs team of Dennis Bayles and Don Blackley were in 5th place after day one with a total of 11.58 lbs.  On day two the team weighed in 10.75 lbs. for a two day total of 22.33 lbs.  The Arkansas and Missouri team stated they fished the main lake around Cypress.  They used Mid South jigs with a glitter head.  They found that jig was working good couple weeks prior during pre fishing and continued to use it.  They jigged the stumps pulling up about 6 inches from the bottom the whole time.  The team won $1000.00 for third place. 1 RONNIE CAPPS STEVE COLEMAN 28.41 2 MARVIN DECKARD ROY DECKARD 25.20 3 DON BLAKLEY DENNIS BAYLES JR 22.33 4 ALVIN BURT DOUG BATTLES 21.67 5 CHARLES BUNTING TRAVIS BUNTING 20.71 6 KELLEY GRAHAM DUSTIN HARRIS 20.63 7 FREDDIE DOOLY FRANK ROBERTS 18.17 8 MARTY SNIDER JACKIE ALBIN 17.93 9 RICHARD LINDSEY MIKE SPARKS 16.65 10 DAN SCOTT GARY FICENEC 16.36 Full results PDF New Video Coming Soon! www.crappiemasters.net FISH RECORDS POST A TOURNAMENT RELAY FOR LIFE MICHELLE SHORT BENEFIT CRAPPIE MASTERS FORREST WOOD CUP MOON PHASES FLW  SCHEDULE FLW SERIES FORREST WOOD CUP PRO ANGLERS BIG BASS BONANZA FISHING FORUM Boat Wraps April 29 & 30 Dardanelle Crappie Tournament is now a two day national qualifier.  300.00 entry fee 10.00 big fish.
