Duckett ghost. Great rod for price and we'll in your price range

Just seen this thread and not sure if you got your answer or not but lake wateree is a good lake. We are still fishing tournaments at lake robinson in hartsville. If you have a boat and willing to travel the CATT trail has tournament series all over the state. We are finishing up robinson then we will start back on wateree end of February. Check out the website and see the schedule and all

I am about to pull the trigger on some lews reels I always loved them back in day. My tournament partner just bout 3 paired with Duckett ghost rods. He loves them. I am looking at getting the mach 1 series

Rough day fishing but did find some better fish. Still 24 teams and big fish was at 3 pounds until 2 guys came in with a 5.85 and 5.64. That won the tournament with them 2 fish. He would not release fish at same place as everyone else then they ended up belly up. Not really sure what to think about it. Still had fun as always

We don't just want 5 fish in our normal tourney at one lake but this one particular lake just messes me up. Well we are all rigged up and getting the night before tourney food and spirits so wish us luck.

to be honest we throw a little of everything, the water temp right now is anywhere from 68 to 83 degrees depending on where you are at on the lake, we prefished the other day and threw 8 different baits and rigs and caught fish, i know i can put 5 in boat fast on rattle trap, but everything else we throw we catch same size fish, the lake might only have small fish in it, been like this for about as long as i can remember, they introduced shad 5 years ago and the fish started getting bigger but 2 years later there was no shad, water temp to high to spawn and the fish got them up in the coolest cove of lake and basically wiped them out according to DNR

I normally go into a tourney wanting to get 5 fish. One lake we fish yiu get 14 pounds you might or might not be in money. But it is not uncommon to him catch a 5 pounder. This lake I am fishing now out of 20 teams only 2 bass weighed over 2 pounds. The fish are just small there I guess. Thanks for the reply. It was a very informative read and will help this weekend

I been fishing this one lake as long as I can remember not we just started fishing a tournament trail here at this lake and I don't have problems catching fish but trying to catch a Kicker is killing me. The lake is a powerful plant cooling lake and 95% of the fish is 12 to 14 inches. These tournamentsites only have 10 pounds or less winning weights. Last tourney we had 5.86 and got 10th while first placentury only had 7.43. Like I said I can catch a boat load but never any 2 plus pounders. There is no shad in this lake if that helps. Thanks for any advise!

I got 12 rods I am planning on relining and not sure what I need to try and use. I mostly use mono and braid but looking into some fluorocarbon.. I want to line each rod for specific lures so what would yall suggest for different lures, worms, finese,topwater,frog,crankbait, etc. Thanks for any help.

This was a local tourney that was held for 15 years at a smallpower plant cooling lake. Had on average 40 boat but yes it is not a big knowname tourney. That's why they didn't say anything about stringer

Thanks for all the info.

They just used a stringer. Didn't have a livewell. He said the lake was his live well and they had one over 5 pounds

We fish out of a bass tracker. And I have seen a 14 foot with a 9.9 fish a Calcutta tourney and smoked the 35 boats that was in it

Thanks for the welcomes. Been fishing CATT tournament trail and got one at lake robinson this weekend. Is there any kind of reports for local lakes?

Thanks everyone
