Cape Adjust on Stockton to Win

By Lisa Talmadge


Stockton, MO...May 16, 2009...Brad Cape of Steelville, MO is one step closer to the Bassmaster Classic with his first place victory in the Missouri division earning $5,000 in the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Weekend Series bass tournament held on Stockton Lake.  Cape`s five bass limit weighed in at 16.65 pounds.  He made good use of his two days of practice prior to the tournament.  He was able to find two different patterns that would allow him to get bites on a regular basis.  One consisted of dirty water around shallow points; the other was a clear water pattern in the 8 ft - 10 ft range.  With a cold front pushing through during the tournament, Cape adjusted his game plan to start off throwing a buzzbait in the dirty water early which paid off big time when he landed the eventual big fish on the boater side when a 5.36 pound largemouth inhaled Cape`s buzzbait early in the morning.  As the dirty water pattern slowed, he went to his backup plan which was Carolina Rigging in 8 ft - 10 ft of water down by the dam.  That adjustment paid off as Cape finished his limit and also culled up three times to his winning weight.

Boaters brought in a total of 175 fish weighing 455.48 pounds.  Boaters in the top five were: second – Brent Algeo of Battlefield, MO with 15.52; third – Paul Angelakos of Branson, MO with 15.07; fourth – Wes Endicott of Joplin, MO with 14.20; and fifth – David Ryan of Levasy, MO with 13.93. 

The co-anglers brought 78 fish to the scales with a total weight of 197.39 pounds.  Brad Christy of Jefferson City, MO took first on the co-angler side with a total weight of 10.20 pounds.  Remaining top five co-anglers were: second – Mike Winthorst of Jefferson City, MO with 8.93; third – Joe Dorcy of Smithville, MO with 8.75; fourth - Brian Sarson of Ava, MO with 7.90; and fifth Martin Aulbur of Martinsburg, MO with 7.86.  Co-angler big bass award went to Brad Christy for catching a 5.90 pound largemouth.

The next event for Division 16 – Missouri will be held 11 July 2009 on Truman and launching from Bucksaw Marina.
