Typically known as the kickstarter to Christmas shopping , Black Friday has another meaning (and location) for local anglers.
Lake Tenkiller hosts the yearly bass tournament sponsored by Hawghunters Bass Circuit which is a favorite tournament that ensures year long bragging rights.
67 teams took off from Chicken Creek ramp on Friday morning hoping for five winning fish.
As usual, weather plays a big part in strategy and results. It’s those who can adapt with the changes that rise to the top.
Hawghunters Bass Circuit spokesperson, Joe Moon stated, “the annual event was another success with lots of nice bass weighed in.”
1st place: TJ Martin and Nick Kincaid weighed a five bass limit at 19.14 pounds. (pictured above)

4th place: Miguel Guillen and Dean Pappas weighed a five bass limit at 15.53 pounds.
5th place: Jeremy Johnson and Shane Cashman weighed a five bass limit at 15.15 pounds.
