Sorry for the late report. Rob and I headed down lake and our first stop produced a small keeper in the first 5 minutes on a carolina rigged magnum fluke. We were looking for jumpsbut the fish only surfaced a couple of times andRob boated a slick and there were no other takers so we moved toa flat near deep water and hit a couple brush piles with no luck. We spent the next several hours hitting points with brush and docksonly to miss many, many strikes. The fish just would not commit to the bait, even when it felt like they nailed it.emoScratch This went on all night and included two fish I had on a jig with a good thump and good hookset, and theyjust came unbuttoned about half way to the boat.emoConfusedemoBeerRob finally boated our second and last keeper about 1:30 as we were cleaning up behind Wiskers and the "Legend" around HB. The highlight of the night was me telling Jmax we were fishing a tx and wanted his spot. He wouldn't oblige, so I threw over his line and he was gracious enough to let me have my jig back.emoAngelemoBeeremoBeer It was tough night of catching, but a wonderful night on the lake with a good friend and the fellowship before blastoff was entertaining and enjoyable. It was a special honor to have our very own Fat Albert grace us with an appearance at sign-in. Thanks to all that fished andcongrats to all those that placed. Al

Good report, and good to see you both on Sat.

 

[AThornton]

Great to see you and Rob as always Al!

 

[Jmax]

I am glad you caught that little keeper I left you behind us. After you two were crying so much about not catching much I knew that little guy was not going to help us so I left him for you. emoBigsmile Good tournament, good company, lots of fun and as always someone figures them out. emoThumbsup Jmax

We had a similar night Al. I was throwing a magnum ultra vibe tail worm and getting plenty of bites (they were swimming off with it) but I couldn't hook up.

 

[Dropshot]

Nice report Al emoThumbsup emoTongue

Didn't Rob say he loaded up on baked beans and boiled eggs for this event emoConfused How did that work out for you emoGoofy emoBawl

Thanks for the report it was a tough and slow nite for us as well. Between the monster waves, gail force winds, and lack of cooperation from the fish it made for an intersting night. I think thats why they call it fishing and not catching.

 

[Hook1]

Good report.

Hmmm, that sounds like a potentially "fragrant" night on the boat.
