10th Place Finish out of 147 La Crosse Wisconsin FLW BFL
Just got back from fishing the FLW BFL in La Crosse Wisconsin. The trip was about a 7 hour drive from St. Louis. It was an easy drive after having to navigate all the traffic in California while I was on vacation last week. Driving through the Iowa countryside was a fun experience. There's a certain calm that comes over me when I'm out in the country and away from all the craziness of living in the city suburbs. Things move a lot slower and it reminds me of living out my coll
No More Co-Anglers on the FLW Tour
So last week the news came out that there will be no more Co-Anglers on the FLW Tour. I knew the decision was probably going to happen as I heard about it during the pre-tournament meeting for the COSTA event that I fished on Kentucky Lake about a month ago. I think getting rid of the Co-Angler was something that FLW needed to do to make it so the Pros had an even playing field. Also I think their are a handful of Pros that didn't want to fish the Tour because of their being
8th Place Finish out of 92 at Truman Lake
Just got back from competing in the FLW BFL on Truman Lake. I haven't fished on Truman Lake in ages. The last time that I had fished Truman Lake was when I was in college and since then the lake has gone through some changes. Some parts of the lake are just silted in and a lot of the standing timber is just pole timber. I had a funny feeling about the tournament that it was going to be a really tough event. The dock talk was that it wouldn't take much to win and that a couple
Halfway Point
So far I've reached the halfway point through my year of tournament fishing. I decided at the beginning of the year that I was going to try and fish as much as possible. I had spent the last couple of years just dabbling in fishing whenever I got time but this year I've been on the road trying to compete as much as possible. My wife's been really supportive of me hitting the lake nearly every weekend since February and we finally got a weekend coming up where I will be making
2nd Place Finish FLW BFL on Lake of the Ozarks
Just got back after a great weekend of competing in the FLW BFL on Lake of the Ozarks. The fishing was pretty good and I experienced an all day bite. I ended up catching a limit of fish for 15lbs and change throughout the day which was good enough for 2nd place. I ended up losing the tournament by 1 ounce which was pretty tough. I really hoped that my fish would hold out for my first win in BFL level competition but I guess I'll have to wait for that milestone. I ended up cat
