Heath and I got out there again for the Tuesday nite TX on Parks. We had a good 18 or 19 boat turnout for this one.</p>
Im going to start off by saying that the fishing was beyond terrible tonight! </p>
We started off fishing a couple main lake points. The fish were there in our usual spots, just nothing would hardly cooperate. Caught a couple small fish, heath caught a little LM on the first cast on the first point. </p>
Second point we hit.... a million fish were there, nothing wanted to play except for one 14" spot. </p>
Whipped into a cove and gave it a try. Started throwing blades... 5 or 6th cast, had a 2.5-3lb spot chase it to the boat and swim off emoRolleyes Worked our way through there hard... I end up having one nail it, maybe a 14.5" spot for keeper number two. Had no more luck in the cove and headed back out to the main lake.</p>
Back on the main lakewe pulled up to a bluff wall where I caught a couple a few days ago. Again, nothing there other than a couple tiny spots.... Cranked up and went to a point near by. </p>
First cast on the point, another little spot. Had a few more bites there that I missed in 20-30FT of water. Casted on up shallower after not seeing any fish on the depth finder for a second. A decent fish took the dropshot... fought him for a few seconds until he pulled loose emoDoh Nothing big but atleast a keeper that got off there. After that we had no more luck on the point... </p>
It was about 8:20PM by then, we move on to our next spot... just another point. Notta..... </p>
8:40PM - Moon is finally coming up a little, we have moved to another point. Started catching quitea few fish, even doubled up at one time. But not one keeper ... emoLaugh </p>
9PM - We head up the lake to our last spot of the day. Just a little bank, figured we may as well just give it a try and see if we can get lucky. Throwing texas rig/finesse now. Pulled up a couple litte fish here and there. By 9:25PM I hook a good one, starts pulling a little drag andthe hook wants to pull loose againemoBang Oh well... fished down the bank a little more, I catch another spot going 14.5" for our 3rd keeper of the night. </p>
9:45PM - Not getting anymore fish tocooperate, we are just about ready to give up... Told Heath that I'm gonna make one more cast. Made one last cast and there she was, a 2.90lb largehead for our 4th keeper. emoWorthy </p>
Of course after that fish I squeezed in a few more casts hoping to get a 5th and final keeper until it was time to head to weigh in... Nothing else cooperated and that was it for tonight.</p>
We placed 2nd with 6.28lbs and had 2nd big fish of 2.90lbs.</p>
1st had 8.88lbs out of a 5 fish limit, and 3rd I believe had 6.12lbs? - Not sure who had big fish, but I think it was a bag of 5lb something. It was a nice 3.77lb largemouth. emoToast </p>
Weather was awsome and as for the fishing....well...not so awsome! Had a blast tonite, even thoughthe fishing was pretty slow. Didnt take any skill for us to get 2nd, just a whole lot of luck. emoThumbsup </p>
And for a heads up, next week will be the last open Tuesday night tournament on Parksville for 2010... come on out and fish it if you can! emoToast </p>
Good luck and be safe on the water
