Manistee leg of Bud Triple Crown produces big fish

By Guy Ellis, Staff Writer

MANISTEE - The weather held off until teams brought their fish to the scales at the manistee Elks Club Sunday afternoon for the weigh-in of the third leg of the Budweiser Triple Crown.

Then the skies opened and poured down on the participants, but it was too late to have any effect on the outcome and the charter boat Falcon Eddy already had the biggest fish on the tournament inthe box waiting to be weighed.

Thirty-five boats were entered and only three of those brought limites of fish to the scale either day, but the fish that were caught were large, very large. The average weight of the fish in the first eight places of the Big Fish Division were all in the 20 pounds plus class.

The team from the charter boat Falcon Eddy was the winner of the Overall Division and also the Large Fish Division. The team was led by Captain Ed Falcon Taylor and crewed by Mark "King" Price and Kevin Hackert and two Pennsylvanians on a charter, Jim Zimba and Chip Hanour.

Falcon Eddy's 34.6 pound king, caught Sunday, put the team solidly in first place in both divisions for a payout of $2,000 and a total score of 387.50 ahead of Mischief with an overall score of 353.35.

Falcon Eddy took seventh in the first leg of the Budweiser Triple Crown held at Ludington on July 12 and 13.

Taylor said, "It should be all over but the shouting. It's not, we have to go to Frankfort and you know how fishing can be."
