Ohhhh, we have a heated battle happening for the Ohio Total Weight Championship! With 2 tournaments left to fish, team Zimmerman is only .20 lbs. behind team Hankins! Team Anderson in 3rd is only 2 lbs. behind them both. Don't forget its Best of Four - your lowest weight is dropped if you fish all five qualifiers.

Congratulations to Ed & Vicki Hankins, winners of our BHT Sandusky Bay "Livin' Large" ! They beat 16 other teams with only two fish, one of which was a 4.79 Big Bass beauty. Their 2 fish weighed 9.35 lbs. They also took home Vic's Bass Cash $200 bonus. Not bad for 7 hours of fishing!
To clarify: Saturday's tournament is held in Sandusky Bay. Outside the bay at your own risk, but you will not be disqualified.
A few additional things for Sandusky... Marine Flares required, and there is a 14" minimum fish length
