Osage Beach Bait and Tackle Open on Lake of the Ozarks 1st place and Big Bass
Just got back from winning the Osage Beach Bait and Tackle open tournament on Lake of the Ozarks while fishing by myself. The fishing was really tough on the lake. I got off to a really slow start and it wasn't till around 9:00 am that I had any fish. At around 11 am I actually had 3 keepers but they didn't weigh much. I ended up catching the big bass that went 5.79 around 1:30 in the afternoon. It was big enough to win Big Bass for the whole tournament. When I got back to th
USA Bassin Open 3rd Place Finish on Lake of the Ozarks
Just got back from getting a 3rd place finish on Lake of the Ozarks in the USA Bassin Open. We ended up having a little over 11lbs and change on a really tough weekend of fishing.

Last year I had two second place finishes in the BFL's on Lake of the Ozarks and over my FLW fishing career I had finished in the top 5 over 10 times. I knew that I just had to be patient and my time would come. It was amazing that it all went down though in the Regional Championship. T
2nd Place USA Bassin Lucas Oil Tournament Lake of the Ozarks
We ended up taking 2nd place in the Lucas Oil Open on Lake of the Ozarks. The day started out with us running about 8 miles up the lake in Chilly temps. We ended up having a limit at the first spot we stopped to fish. The bite was really fast and furious and by about 9 o'clock I was culling. Most of the fish came on a jig and a couple of them came on a topwater spook. The best bite was on the corners of the docks. The fish on the jig were in that in between range around 7 to
