Tower Sports Center’s Wednesday afternoon bass tournament on Kentucky Lake indicated fish may be on the bed as it was pretty tough going for several local anglers competing. Parisians Brad and Chris Tripett managed to land 6.54 pounds to take the top spot. Second place went to Luke and Tommy Milraney with only 5.86 pounds, which included a 4.07 pound largemouth for big fish of the afternoon.

The next midweek event in the series will be May 14.
