Kerry
Malone of Mount Pulaski won the Big Bass Bash at the
Lake of the Ozarks held October 1-2, 2016. He won
the $100,000 grand prize for having the biggest fish
of the entire weekend and then he received an extra
$2,000 for having the biggest fish in a time slot.
The Big Bass Bash tournament is the largest amateur
bass tournament in the Midwest. Approximately 3,800
avid fishermen compete in the event. This was the
third time Malone had entered this particular
contest and as the saying goes, “Third time's a
charm.”
