Work Tournament

kdxdude · Mar 17, 2010

We had 12 boats today & me & my partner got 2nd place. 1st place had 15.85 lbs, 2nd 13.65, 3rd 12.25, 4th 11.70. Big fish was caught by the 3rd place team & was a whopping 8.25 lbs. I will post pics later. We caught most of our fish on jerkbaits, some on swimbaits & some on spinnerbaits. We caught 15-20 fish & only 2 weren't keepers. Steady cold NE breeze made for a tough day but the good LORD blessed us with a good sack today. Good Luck & God Bless!

It looks like the water has come up about 1-2 feet, judging by some structure that was completely out of the water about a week & half ago. Still very shallow, keep it between the buoys & be safe.

I am glad they are bringing it up a little. I took my boat out two weeks ago and it took three tries to get it off the trailer. I finally had to back in the water until the back tires of my truck were in the water about foot deep. Once I got it loose from the trailer I found out why it was so difficult. As I was trolling over to the dock I was only getting 1.5 to 1.7 foot of water on my
depth finder. The docks at B&B Marina were sitting on the bottom and were not floating.

Re: Work Tournament (Updated w/ pics)

I failed to get the 1st place teams pic, as I was getting my fish out of the livewell & into the weigh bag.
Me and HeathJ 2nd 13.65

3rd place 12.25 with big fish 8.25, pic didn't do fish justice. I saw the scales & it said 8.25. Gonna be hard to top that 1 for Big Fish of the year for our little club.

4th with 11.70
