  1. wow good thing the bag was clear or they would have got away with it
  2. Wow, ive heard of guys shoving sinkers in them to weigh more but a whole extra fish is ballsy
  3. that weird, the two pages i was looking at said somthing different
  4. 37 bags over 15, i must have looked at somthing else when i posted that. still really good weights over 22 to win
  5. Looks like a good weekend for the AIA guys 55 bags over 15lbs
  6. I got a whole bunch last year too, i was kinda waiting to see if it happens again this spring
  7. Depends how lower your talking about. Its a circus from Bridgeport up to McCords with all the snaggers, white bassers and guys after crappie. I did that yesterday but stayed around Bridgeport and Flat creek. Its a lot of people to deal with and if your in a Yak i would stay away, everyone plowing water making the biggest wakes they can
  8. What tournament do you guys fish out of cow? Yesterday was good for me up Flat creek as far as number but not a lot of size. The boat traffic up the James is just ridicules with all the bare hook draggers, by 11 all the banks were churned up with mud from the traffic and the bite was done. I probably had 15 in 1-6ft until then cranking. Water temp was 53 on my Garmin so 55 on other units
  9. Hope everyone caught them. I didnt sleep worth a crap and didnt get to the lake 9:00. Put in at Bridgeport and ran up Flat Creek 51-53 WT. caught them really good paralleling the bank cranking a G5. Biggest was only 2.66, didnt think it would have a chance, so i through it back. Eagle Rock would have been 2:30 hours from Bridgeport to there then back to Ozark so i decided to go home and have dinner with the Fam... Hope everyone did well
  10. My neighbor went down under Springfield Lake dam and he said lots of people were down there snagging and lots of people had fish, and lots of gut piles where people had cleaned them. Do you guys think those already swam up from the lake or just leftovers from last year?
  11. Dutch, did you get into flat creek? somtimes that water is a different breed than the james
  12. I have a whole bunch of unopened packs need to break out. Ole Watson world wide hooked me up a couple years ago when he was cleaning out a storage unit
  13. Travis, i agree its not near as easy as it looks. I use mine more for lining up on a brush pile, i dont really target individual fish. Back a few years ago, my buddy had the LVS12. Yep 12 degrees, it was almost impossible to use
  14. I get what you mean. I think finding the fish is more of a skill than catching them. Look at the elites, every guy on that trail can catch fish, its who FINDS the big ones wins
  15. Where is the pride in catching 10-15lber if someone else takes you to them and tells you what to throw and how.
  16. That poor lake has got pounded over the last year. It shows how much damage one Youtuber can do if people expose his location. I heard an interview and he didnt want to say the name of the lake but since they weighed a share lunker the Texas Parks and Wildlife listed where it was. Locals are pissed and the people who own businesses there are happy. Most the country never had even heard of that lake until last winter Here is the link if anyone wants to see it
  17. not much to do here in Ozark but Taney or Tablerock is only about 35-40 min
  18. If you like the in red Jannsnetcraft has 100 for $30. I just dont know how i feel about red hooks
  19. I tried those Hayabusa's last year and was less than impressed, they just didnt seem sticky at all. If i dont get stuck at least few times while changing hooks out they just are not sharp enough for me. Tackle warehouse shows Daiitchi Death traps, ive always been a fan of those too https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Daiichi_Death_Trap_Round_Treble_Hook_5pk/descpage-DAIDTHK.html
  20. Sexy dog is my go to walking bait. I use #6 on my front 2 hooks and a #5 on the back, it makes it walk much better. Gamakatsu round bends, or the Berkeley Fusions are my favorites
  21. I mounted mine level for idling, i also mounted it high so it cant read at speed, ive never seen the use as i know the areas pretty well where i go already. i think the only way to go for reading at speed would be a through hull style.
  22. congrats, i was going to ask if you caught a keeper brown
