Buckeye still producing

In most years, Buckeye Lake is a good bass producer through mid- to late June, then declines rapidly. It seems different this year, or maybe some fishermen have just done a better job of figuring out where they're hiding.
Anyway, the Tuesday night tournament at Buckeye is still having nice results. This week (July 21) saw 25 anglers weigh in 47 bass, with the top three finishers weighing five-fish limits.
Rod Stufflebeam and Ty Nauer took first with 9.28 pounds, including a 4.26-pound fish that took big bass honors. Other anglers weighed in 3.58-pound and 3.5-pound fish that would have been big bass most weeks. That's great for mid-July!
Scott CLark finished second with 8.47 pounds and Mike Gittins placed third with 6 pounds.
The totals then dropped off, with Dave Mockus and Frank Tipton finishing fourth with two bass that weighed 4.25 and Mark Foulty and Frank Harrington were fifth with three bass that also weighed 4.25 pounds.
