Who ever thought it was a good idea to have a day tournament in August needs to have his head examined first off! Well hot or not we started the morning off by fishing a small grass pocket without even a sniff of a bite. Moved back out on main river and caught three or four right off the bat including a 17" smallmouth . And that was it . Caught one other measly keeper the rest of the day. Fish we caught were all on a jig in about three foot of water. Fish are just all feeding at night and are dormant in the hot ass daytime just like the fishermen need to be. Congrats to Gary and Steve for keeping those fish alive that they rode around with all day you guys would be good medics on a battlefield. Next year don't need to have night tournaments in May and day tournaments in August . Last of September is ok for day tournament and it's still a little hot then it's just to hard on fish. I bet whoever's idea this was didn't even fish because they thought it was to hot. See you all at nickajack next month .
 
There are plenty of fish biting during the day time. My partner and I have had some of the best catches of the Summer the past 3 weeks. We had 14 keepers last Sunday
