Crooked Lake
Bob's Landing
Babson Park, Fl
Two days after the first cold front
came through dropping surface
temp. from 84.8 to 73.2, sunny
blue bird skies, 8-12 mph wind out
of North - six teams set out to
find the "big ones" in Crooked Lake's
spring fed, deep clear water.
One (1) position paid for "Big Fish"

1 lb. 1.01 oz
Two positions paid for "7 fish
total catch weight"
1st: Eric & Luke Magneson
(6 fish) 5 lbs. 13.5 oz
2nd: Harold McGhee/Tony Jordon

Winning team long lined along a
20 ft ledge, 18 ft down using "red
bone" 8' rods, hand made emerald
head, green body, black feather tail

Crooked Lake lived up to its billing as
a tuff lake to fish in daytime.
