I had an excellent day pre-fishing for our upcoming tournament next weekend. The majority of the fish were caught around emerging grass and laydowns. I used a weighted Senko or a custom chatterbait, running it parallel to the laydowns or working it through the emerging grass. The water temperature ranged from 72-76°F throughout the day. Lake level was a little high, but the clarity was good.

Was able to win a tournament with my dad for the first time. Was an absolute blast for catching fish. We ended up catching close to a hundred fish throwing a bit of everything around grass and off the edge of the submerged grass. My main bait was a jig while my dad stuck with a drop shot and we were able to put 13 and half pounds on a place where that doesn’t happen to many times. Caught a few on a chatterbait as well. Finding the active fish around bluegill was a big deal for finding the better than average sized bass. Caught fish all over the lake so it wasn’t just one spot where we caught majority of our fish.

Fished our third tourney on this lake. Wacky rig, spinnerbait, jig all caught fish, but the wacky was the kind for the day pitching it into flooded brush. The 14LB Mastiff is turning out to be go to line for more of finesse applications, even over Sunline sniper. Zero memory, and the line took a beating all day. Solid solid stuff!
