STOCKTON, Mo. — The Good Old Boys Bass Club out of Neosho, Mo. held their second open bass tournament on Stockton Lake on Saturday. Chanute residents had a successful weekend at the tournament despite the cold and rainy conditions.

Chanute residents Mike Bogle and Lloyd Lemieux made the land of Blue Comets proud, bringing home first place and a top prize of $165 thanks to a five bass limit of 14.69 pounds. The pair also reeled in the big bass of the day at 4.77 pounds, good for another $100 in prize money.

The Good Old Boys Bass Club has 10 regular season tournaments left, taking place on Stockton Lake, Table Rock Lake in Missouri, Grand Lake in Oklahoma and a season-ending bout on Truman Lake in Missouri.
