Well, i haven't posted in a while. Thought I had a good pattern for the basschamps tournament so i didn't post much in Dec-Jan. Of course, It's been awhile since I fished a big tournament and was humbled with the amount of boats on the water. Caught 4 keepers but not the money...didn't even weigh in..good learning experience. Will try May.
Anyway, I'm posting now. Caught 3 keepers (all around 14-15") this afternoon with several smaller fish. Focused on bluffs with wind - caught 1 keeper on 3/4 FB jig on 20" ledge. Move to main lake point and was amazed at the amount of fish on my graph. Most were suspended - Caught one keeper on t-rig senko and few small fish in 35-40 FOW. Watching my graph and putting bait on target. - Tried to focus on the suspended fish but no takers with spoon. Moved to north cove and secondary point - Caught keeper on weighted senko in 30 FOW in channel leading to cove. Working both t-rig senko and FB jig really slow. Had several fish pick up the bait and drop. A smaller presentation might have been better... Was interesting fishing and seeing the snow on the banks. Thought I was at Lake of the Ozarks.
Good luck to all the LSS anglers tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will be the chaperone for a slumber party with 9 year old girls. good times...Next weekend, it's back on. Lake Austin next friday!! and Travis on Sat.
Cheers...
