A great turn out at Maroon Dam saw 62 anglers take to the waters to compete in the third qualifier of the 2019 Casino Outdoors BASS Electric Series.
Dale Lucas took out his first BASS Electric win with 2/2 bass for 1.74kg, securing his spot in the 2019 Grand Final. Lucas had a great start to the day landing six fish in the boat within the first hour, upgrading plenty of times as the session went on. Dale also took out the round’s Big Bass, weighing in a 0.915kg fish.
Ipswich local, Brett Kleinschmidt finished second with 2/2 for 1.71kg. He spent the day on the water with Tom Reynolds who gave him the advice to tie on a soft plastic early in the day – proving very successful for Kleinschmidt.
Full winner and runner-up videos available shortly.
