Congrats to the young man, must be a great feeling to be 24 and win an Elite event.

it was a great weigh-in, and I bet they will be back next year. Everyone in the tourny kept saying how awesome the lake was, and gerald swindle sounded like a commercial for tourism saying that if he was wanting a place to come stay and go fishing Bull Shoals is the place to do it.

Its cool to see a young guy thats a former fed. nation champ to win big at the Elites, hats off to that dude

He caught them off an old roadbed that was a staging area.

I was very surprised that a deep diver beat out the wiggle wart. What do I know,

That translucent brown/amber color is super duper, I will most certainly buy a fistfull of them.

The only problem I have witht he Rapala DT series is the fragile bill, breaks when it smacks a big rock.

Also mentioned that he plans to sleep in his truck the rest of this season. Smart financial & logistical move

I might try the "marshall" idea, if they come back.

Jerry McKinnis loves that lake, I bet they do it.

Yep I gotta get over there and fish Bull myself. I was reading that they were catching 30-100 14-15" bass per day.
