They’ve been having tournaments there for 30 years during a smallmouth spawn also……… thought that was supposed to ruin a fishery??? ? 1 Quote
Kirtley Howe Posted July 20, 2023 Posted July 20, 2023 I am shocked that any angler skunked for the day. I have fished there under some really bad conditions, and the worst I ever did was 4 fish in an 8 hour period, for a weight of about 9 lbs. It is such a fantastic fishery, that it should be almost impossible to not catch at least one scorable bass in a full day of a tournament. Anyone know what happened to the anglers who skunked? Quote

Any angler can get skunked any day on any body of water no matter how skilled the angler, how good the conditions are, or the quality of the lake. If it hasn't happened to you, keep fishing it will happen. Hopefully not often, but every fisherman will eventually have a skunk in their boat. 3 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted July 22, 2023 Global Moderator Posted July 22, 2023 Sometimes the people that got skunked also means their motor wouldn’t start 1 Quote
Kirtley Howe Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 I have definitely been skunked...more times than I care to admit. But it is still a shock to me when a professional angler gets skunked in a place like the St. Lawrence River. I know it can happen, but it still amazes me. 1 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted July 23, 2023 Global Moderator Posted July 23, 2023 Congrats to Jody white! Pretty impressive for anyone to beat Johnston up there 2 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 15, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 15, 2023 Best live scoper going got 2 bass for 4 lbs 4 oz just downriver from me, sounds about right. I heard it was easy 1 3 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted September 15, 2023 Super User Posted September 15, 2023 He might have just sunk his chances at the Elite series, which is what I've been watching all these Opens for ? Quote

Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 15, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 15, 2023 Yea they always have to release a bunch of 2.5 lb smallies up this way 1 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 15, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 15, 2023 A 14 lb bass just hit bass tracker, gotta be a wet finger typo 1 Quote
GReb Posted September 15, 2023 Posted September 15, 2023 Really wish BASS would have some type of coverage even it was just 5 boats a day 1 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 15, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 15, 2023 Much better day for Milliken , he is now in 62nd place 1 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted September 15, 2023 Super User Posted September 15, 2023 Yeah nice come back, and I wonder where he'll be after this one in the points. Honestly his season has progressively gotten worse as it's gone along and further away from the true southern LGM fisheries that are Lake Eufaula and Toledo Bend. He's a big Bass guy, hopefully with more time he'll become equally as good of an elite level derby guy. 2 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 20, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 20, 2023 Watching the watts bar video now, lot of catfish and drum ! Haha welcome to my world 1 1 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted September 22, 2023 Super User Posted September 22, 2023 Weigh in is about to start......hopefully Ben caught them today 2023 St. Croix Bassmaster Open at Lake of the Ozarks - Bassmaster 1 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 22, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 22, 2023 I’ve been watching it a bit, looks a lot better than watts bar haha 1 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted September 22, 2023 Super User Posted September 22, 2023 It will always be Watt's Gar now that you said it ? Seems like 20lb bags are the hallmark of a really healthy Bass fishery. eta: Amazing that the same half dozen or so guys have managed to catch them every place after 8 events 1 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 23, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 23, 2023 Well look who my buddies friend drew this morning 4 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted September 23, 2023 Super User Posted September 23, 2023 Imagine drawing somebody like Milliken or Clunn as your boater....that's awesome, that dude already won, he'll never forget today that's for sure. 2 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 23, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 23, 2023 He actually won the co angler tourney at st Lawrence, he’s a hammer as well 3 Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted September 26, 2023 Global Moderator Posted September 26, 2023 I had heard a rumor that Milliken smashed into a buoy and set himself back, sure enough he just posted a video of it. Looks like he hit it hard! Those things are brutal 1 Quote
