Coming in fifth place was the team of Matt Brooks and Jake White. Their 4-bass limit weighed 11.22 pounds.
Coming in sixth place and getting the last check was the team of Steve Tullor and Dakota Fleming. Their 4-bass limit weighed 10.64 pounds. Congratulations to all of the money winners.
The fourth 2023/24 MRAA Winter Trail Tournament is scheduled to be on Lake Ferguson on January 6th. It's still a good possibility that this location could be changed to another lake due to the continuing low water situation in the Mississippi River. If the Mississippi River stays above 9' on the Greenville gauge the tournament will be on Lake Ferguson. If it is below that level the tournament location will be changed.
