livetofish28 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 So as my friend and normal Partner Everythingthatswims has already given his view and results of his two days on the glorious Lake Anna fishery in VA I had a rather interesting two days. It started out with Blast off. 6:30 AM. 6:31 motor goes ping po pow and dies (probably a blown power head) and we are dead in the water right out of Sturgeon Creek. 6:35 my partner hooks up with a bass that ended up weighing 3.11. We are now fishing along main lake walls heading back into sturgeon creek. After a couple hours we have a limit in the boat and can't believe we are this fortunate. 10:20 we make the first cull of the day and continue fishing drop shots and shakyheads 12:00 I hook into a chunk of a fish that weighed 3.55 and would be the big fish for the day. A couple more culls later and we start nearing weigh in. as we have made our way back into sturgeon creek marina we fish the docks that are right there at the weigh in (those who have been there no what I'm talking about) At 2:25 we make a final cull before weigh in at 2:30. day one weight 11.75 good for second place for the day. Ironic that the two boats that had messed up motors finished 1st and second. Day two was basically the same thing fishing in the same sort of spots and was only able to get four fish as the sun came up post front. Weigh in came and the four fish were good enough for 6.85. For a total of 18.60. In the end it wasn't good enough and we were bumped to third placed and missed our shot at qualifying for the high school championship on kentucky lake in july. Although we are alternates we won't make it Congrats to my buddy for winning it with an awesome 2 day weight of 28+ pounds. tight lines Andrew Quote

Super User everythingthatswims Posted April 28, 2015 Super User Posted April 28, 2015 Great job to both you and your partner, and I hope the motor issues are worked out without too much trouble. I don't know how you do it with that shakey head on 6lb fluoro! Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted April 28, 2015 Super User Posted April 28, 2015 Way to turn the day around! I know a lot of guys that would have headed in and gone home if their motor had conked out. Quote
livetofish28 Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Way to turn the day around! I know a lot of guys that would have headed in and gone home if their motor had conked out. It really helped that my partner put a three pounder in the boat right away 1 Quote
