| | | | | | Soon to be eighth grader at Stanley Middle School, Jed Wood of Lafayette, came in first place at a recent Pro-Am Bass Tournament at Russo's Marina on Bethel Island, catching the largest bass in the tournament at over 7.5 pounds. More than 70 kids participated in the event and he was the youngest. Each amateur was paired with a professional in a boat with a live well for holding the fish for a six and a half hour period starting at 6 a.m. His proud father, Ned Wood, says son Jed "has a passion for it." The 13-year-old even has a small business teaching other youngsters how to fish. Look for the award-winning fisherman at the Lafayette Reservoir, San Pablo Reservoir or at the Moraga Country Club ponds. C. Tyson.
