What a fun weekend for the Summer Contest at West Branch.\u00a0 Saturday was a calm nice summer day with a few weekend boaters to increase the\u00a0 drama.\u00a0 Sunday kept them away with fairly steady rain from 9 am until closing a 2 pm.\u00a0 We had 45 anglers sign up to fish the event, with a total of 28 fish caught.\u00a0\u00a0 Leading the way with 8 fish, and winning not only the event but the Big Fish pool was Chase Gibson.\u00a0 This was Chase’s first time fishing one of Ohio’s program lakes, and he was very impressed with the quality and size of the muskie.\u00a0\u00a0 He hopes West Virginia DNR can take a page from the Ohio book.\u00a0 Chase caught his fish casting and jigging deeper waters.\u00a0 Second place was captured by Neil Butara with 4 fish.\u00a0 Unlike Chase, Neil was able to find his fish shallow, fishing weed beds.\u00a0 Congratulations to Chase and Neil for their success over the weekend.\u00a0 Here is a list of the fish reported and some pictures:<\/p>\n
