Rock Wagner fishing with Capt. Jim Gordon that won bragging rights with two smallmouth bass that weighed in at 6.79 pounds. They were fishing off Four Mile Creek in Lake Ontario. Second place went to event chairwoman Connie Lozinsky and her son, Cody, while fishing with John Fugate, Jr. and Capt. Jeff Draper. Their best two fish totaled 6.47 pounds, catching most of their fish on the Johnson drift in the lower river. Third place was Dominic Mallar, Herbert Darling and Chuck Welch while fishing with Capt. Frank Campbell. Mallar also earned big fish for the day honors, good for $570 in cash, but not without some friendly ribbing at the awards ceremony. Teammate Darling had just handed him his rod when the fish hit. Mallar immediately set the hook and fought the fish to the boat, a 3.83 pound bass. First place in the youth division was Jacob Lusak of Niagara Falls with a nice 3.33 pound bass. Second place was Kathryn Pluff with a 3.08 pound fish. Alex Mieth placed third with a 2.75 pound bass. In the Organized Labor category, Darling Construction set the pace, the team mentioned earlier that had fished with Capt. Campbell. The two-fish score was 6.24 pounds. Second place went to CATCO Construction with 4.42 pounds, the team of Gene Swanson and Bob Turrell. A two fish total of 4.37 pounds was weighed in by the Painters Local led by Capt. Phil Rowan, John Adams, Nate Sieak and Jason Sieak. FOR A COMPLETE RUNDOWN ON THIS CONTEST SEE BILL HILTS JR.COLUMN AT WWW.OUTDOORSNIAGARA.COM OR CHECK OUTDOORSNIAGARA.COM/JOHNDALYBASS
