Tidewater's Don Denault leads the Delaware team and is headed for Sunny Florida!
Don Denault worked his way to the top of the standings after a tight battle with Jim Short for the lead at the B.A.S.S. Federation Nation Mid-Atlantic Divisional in West Virgina last week. Both anglers should be applauded for finding quality fish on a less than perfect body of fish catching water, the Ohio River.
More impressive, Don finished 3rd overall in the tournament comprised of 72 anglers from 6 states including Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The team from Virginia took 1st place team honors and a new $30,000 Skeeter/Yamaha boat package. Delaware finished 5th as a team.
From here, Don Denault heads to the Harris Chain of Lakes in Florida in November to the National Championship, and potentially winning a shot to fish the Bassmaster Classic in February of 2010!
Congratulations Don and Good Luck!
