congrats Jason!

[motoman]

Congrats too Jason, Always cool to see these results.:-)

-

Not sure if this has been asked; but this time of year; do you night guys fish tourneys during the day too?.......able to weigh similar sized sacks?

-

(I hope this question doesn't come off sounding strange?:-)

[Jason Essary]

Moto, think some of the guys do fish some day. We dont much during the summer. The rock is like jekylle and hyde old girl. Night time is like a totally different lake. Think 12" worms (even used 14" last year), 20lb line, and anything that is big. Not that big always works at night, but way tabo during the day. The night tourneys normally have higher weights than day, believe it is because its easier to trick the big girls at night when they cant see so well. Couple years ago when I started fishing them, I was suprised when I think it was the FLW came here on a weekend. We had a two nighter and both nights our bags were half again more than what the pro's brought out.

Fishing after dark can be addicting. During the summer its cooler, hardly any traffic and larger fish. Now who would not like to fish to those advantages.

Nice bag Jason looks like you had a good Sat night.

Fished Friday night some friends and pretty tough biggest bag was 13

nice to see some fish caught. All could get to bite was some squeeker 15".

Nice job again

[Jason Essary]

We found the same friday night. 25 keepers, larges 3.5lb. only had high 11lb. Saturday found better fish.

Jason, do you loose sensitivity with that 20lb line or do you use florocarbon or braid? Don't know if you guys are old school and use Stren Clear Blue Flourescent under a black light? Curious?

[Jason Essary]

90% old school blue mono. use bp exel alot....its cheap enough we change it out on every reel for every derby (well almost). I restring probably 4 every week. there is a brand of co-polmer I like to use that is florecent (name eludes me) but when I do use it in 17lb it is a royal pain to break off when you get hung. Has more sensitivity than mono but costs alot more. Have not found a florocarbon in florecent yet, or braid. Of course this is for night only. Daylight rods carry 15lb floro or smaller.

[Jason Essary]

Oh, and thanks guys for the "that a boy"s. dont post them just because we done well, just have been asked to post and keep guys informed. Its a great tournement. Nice guys fishing and a lot of fun. Could not think of anything else I would rather do on a friday night. But my girlfreind would disagree some. Anyone interested can always message me here, or call Joe Gettle who runs it.

If it is a co-polymer, P-line is the only line that I am familiar with. Thanks, for input. I know several night guys who use clear blue under a black light and others don't like to use a black light. Everyone has their preferences.
