Greer's Ferry FLW BFL 7th Place Finish!
Just got back from Greer's Ferry Lake down in Arkansas. I made the drive down Friday night through a torrential downpour with tons of lightening.I had to drop off my boat in Waynesville, M0 because I was going to fish the USA Bassin Tournament on Lake of the Ozarks on my way back. After driving over 6 hours through rain and lightening I finally got down to the lake. I had to rig up a bunch of rods and reels since I didn't get to doing any tackle prep during the week because w
3rd Place Finish USA Bassin Lake of the Ozarks
Just got back from competing in the USA Bassin Tournament on Lake of the Ozarks this past Sunday. I was able to manage a 3rd place finish with a 5 fish limit and a little over 16lbs of beautiful Lake of the Ozarks Bass! I had just made my way back the night before from getting a 7th place finish on Greer's Ferry Lake in the FLW BFL down in Arkansas. I had to swing by Waynesville, MO on the way back to pick up my boat from a friend. I got into Osage Beach at about 12 midnight
1st Place, Big Bass, and Heavy Boat STL Bassbusters Tournament Lake of the Ozarks
I was really tired after fishing all day in the cold on Kentucky Lake in the LBL BFL on Saturday. While a top 5 finish always makes the drive easier to handle I wasn't able to start my drive back to St. Louis to pick up my boat till about 7pm. I got back to Saint Louis at about 10:30 pm and had to hook up my boat and throw all my rods and tackle in my boat. I also had to rewire some lights on my boat trailer because I just didn't get to it the week before. That's the beauty o
TOP 5 FINISH FLW BFL LBL KENTUCKY/BARKLEY LAKE
One of the craziest things about fishing is that it always seems like mother nature just knows when you are going to be fishing a tournament. This past weekend we knew that we would be getting some nasty weather at Kentucky Lake and there was a concern that there would be some really high winds along with snow and hail. All these make for a really rough time on the water as Kentucky lake is one of those lakes that goes north and south. When you get some strong winds out of th
FLW BFL ARKIE LAKE MILLWOOD
This was probably one of the worst tournaments of the year. I ended up making a 8 hour drive down to Lake Millwood in southern Arkansas with the hopes of getting to flip and pitch for some big old bass. I wanted to experience fishing some new water and hoped to get to see an alligator or two. Unfortunately my boater for this tournament had not even been on the lake to practice and had only fished the lake one time in the past. There are a lot of lakes where you could just sho
