This is the final day and the top ten are only fishing. Clent Davis was in 10th at the start of today and has had the best day of the tournament. He is sitting on close to 15lbs and has taken the lead. Wow! From last place to first place on the final day. emoEek Jmax

I usually keep up with the tour events but I just cant watch a tournament where hardly anyone catches a limit. That lake sucks in August and I would think FLW would have a better following if they chose a body of water that actually has some biting fish in August.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing! I know if it was on chick I'd watch! haha I can't lie since they already come here, it would be pretty cool to see them come pre spawn to see if someone could break 150lbs.

Got to admit, after this one I was surprised to hear they had scheduled it again for next year. emoScratch I will say that Hot Springs and Lake Ouachita for the scenery and the reception is hard to beat. That is why I retired here. One of the guys fishing it said he preferred that type of tournament. He made a good point. In a slug fest everyone is catching them and most folks have limits. He said he preferred the tougher conditions where the angler's ability to figure them out and beat out limits each day that are harder to come by shows more about the quality of the anglers. I see both sides. emoAngel Jmax
