I’m not sure how long those birds stick around (loons and terns) but I think they should lead you to the fish.

Seem to be in a pretty serious big fish slump, like can't even break 3lbs lately. I guess the plus side is when most the fish I'm catching look like this;

277805910-10220935946654678-166120215013

It makes the keeper sized fish look huge. I probably caught 30 fish Sunday, these 2 could have ate most of the rest.

Had our final in state division tourneys of the year, held at Glen Elder and Wilson lake.  Both lakes fished really tough, only 3-4 limits, out of 70 boats, weighed in over the two tournaments.  Water temps were chilly, we didn’t see anything over 45* where we were fishing. 

 

The first tourney at Glen Elder was tough for us.  We only weighed two fish that tourney, but good enough for a 10th place finish!  We thought this would qualify us for state, but weren’t sure.  I caught my PB smallie, at 3.5.  My buddy caught a 16 inch largemouth, and that was our bag for the day.  Tough day of fishing, but a good finish.  Had 5.5 pounds for 2 fish.

My PB smallie, and the largemouth my partner caught:

The next day, at Wilson was a lot better for us.  However, it was really tough.  We fished from 745 to 10 without a bite.  Then, we were fishing down a do-nothing bank, when we saw a shad bust, and I made a cast and caught our first keeper and second biggest fish of our bag.   IMG_6674.thumb.JPEG.ca09170682c639b2c0ad3634e588427c.JPEG

 

Then my partner caught our second keeper and his personal best smallmouth, at 4.5 pounds.  Next, I caught three more keepers to fill out our limit.  My partner proceed to cull out those keepers of those keepers, making our smallest fish a 16 inch smallie.  I threw a magdraft for awhile, trying to catch a kicker, but couldn’t get another bite on anything from 11 to check in at 3:40.  

 

We went to weigh-in thinking we could make get a top fifteen, since 23 pounds had won an adult tourney the day before.  We weighed in the first, and only limit of the day, and won the tourney by a couple pounds!!  We weighed 15 pounds and some change.image1.thumb.jpeg.d40908af320818127950848472583162.jpeg

 

 Congrats… Great job ???

My catch for yesterday, forgot to post last night. Did pretty well, lost a couple to hesitated hook sets though ? I really need to get it in my head that I need to put more force in my hookset. As you can tell, I have a thing for inline spinners lol ?

Caught 4 Bass and 3 Hybrids yesterday. I thought they'd the on a feeding frenzy with the severe weather we had coming in today. I was wrong and struggled for my seven fish, but I'm good with that.
