Robin's Resort LOZ Regional

Oct 08, 2019
Brandenburg and Hardcastle are victorious.

The Robin's Resort Lake of the Ozarks Regional was a two-day event held the last weekend of September and featured a guaranteed first-place prize of $2,000. When the dust settled, the team of Les Brandenburg and Jay Hardcastle took the win with a total weight of 31.80.

They had two very different days as they weighed 20.84lbs after the first day where they led by over three pounds, The second day they brought in 10.96lbs, but it was enough to take the win.

"We fished the same baits both days, topwaters and spinnerbaits, but fished completely different areas," said Hardcastle. "The first day we were fishing up the creeks in shallow water (18"-3') on flats, but the rain we got forced us to change on the second day. There was timber floating down the river, it was muddy, and we couldn't even get back up there on the second day."

They called an audible and moved close to the dam and targeted big docks with the topwater and spinnerbait. "Instead of fishing shallow, we were fishing 20-30-feet of water," he said. 

The team reported catching close to a dozen keeper bass each day and they were able to hold off the rest of the field by over three pounds.

Special thanks to Robin's Resort for making this event possible.
