Muskingum River His and Her

Sunday was the first time this year I've been on the Muskingum River. It's just the way things have worked out, since I've only been able to fish on weekends this summer.
Southern Ohio Bassmasters held its annual "His and Her" tournament on the Zanesville pool out of Riverside Park. River conditions were excellent, although the bass weren't hitting quite as readily a I expected.
Anyway, Lindsey and I had a decent day.
Eric Woodrow and his wife, Debbie, won the tournament with 4 pounds, 4.4 ounces, while Lindsey and I were second with 45 pounds, 3.6 ounces. The Woodrows had eight fish, we had seven; when you don't have to worry about size limits, you wind up with some strange weights.
Judy and Tom Sprankel finished third with 3 pounds, 4 ounces; Shirley and Rick Pfeifer placed fourth with 2 pounds, 10.8 ounces and Fawn and Jeremy Parish were fifth with 2 pounds, 10.8 ounces.
There were quite a few smallmouth weighed in, but Lindsey and I didn't catch any. She caught one largemouth, everything else we caught was a spotted bass, including one nice fish of about 14 inches which, unfortunately, I didn't get a weight on.
Al of our fish but one were caught on black/blue flake hand-poured Senkos from Bob's Outdoor Supply. The other fish hit a  chrome Hub's Chub.
