isn't there a 12" minimum anywhere in the state unless posted otherwise?

[Mediumheavyaction6'6]

pending some unforeseen changes i will be there

[jchief]

Toledo Bend has an 8 fish 14" minimum length on black bass.

[Mediumheavyaction6'6]

my question was to fool saying there was no limit where he was.

[huntin fool]

isn't there a 12" minimum anywhere in the state unless posted otherwise?

not on Largemouth.

On calcasieu River, we have a no size limit, 10 per person, i never keep anywhere close to my limit. usually release until summer time



We will have a 3 man teams

$30 a boat

$5 big bass

[meaux fishing]

pending some unforeseen changes i will be there
need a team mate?

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

sweet, ill try and be there, we have a camp about 1 minute from big bass

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

need a team mate?


hey bob, i know some really good places around the marina that you could troll to

haha

[jchief]

$5 big bass

The $5 is optional and per person.

I have a camp at Buckeye, right around the corner. If someone rents the bunkhouse at Big Bass or a camp that we can use as "headquarters" that would be great. Have a cookout Friday night.

If everyone is good for it, we can do a 50% first place, 30% second place and 20% third place.

Fool, thanks for heading this one up.

[yellalilyslicker]

I'm in, will be at the camp right around the corner anyway that weekend.

[LaAngler]

[huntin fool]

sounds fun but i dont know if i can catch 5 bass at toleda

don't have to catch "5" all it takes is one fish to weigh in at 19 pounds and you might win!

[Fishmaster]

Live? Or not?

[LPfishnTIM]

isn't there a 12" minimum anywhere in the state unless posted otherwise?

no, usually in tournaments if there is not a size limit placed by the state the size limit is 12in. or none, most places have a 14in limit or no size limit in LA.

[LPfishnTIM]

I'd like to fish the tournament, whats the cost to fish it and what part of the lake?

[huntin fool]

30 a boat big bass marina

[Fishmaster]

30 a boat big bass marina
LIVE OR NOT? :help:

[jchief]

How about a .5 lb bonus for live

[huntin fool]

Live weigh in gets .5 bonus

[Country Boy]

not to sure about this one i never caught many bass before, then again how hard could it be to catch 5 bass.

[wtretrievers]

not to sure about this one i never caught many bass before, then again how hard could it be to catch 5 bass.Hahahahaha! You must not bass fish much!

[Country Boy]

Hahahahaha! You must not bass fish much!no, just a few times with a rattle trap and caught, i taught there was a lot of bass out there at the bend, are they that hard to catch?

[LaAngler]

that size limit hurt that lake, should have copied tp&w long time ago

[CatDaddy]

CatDaddy will be there..

[blackmamba]

no, just a few times with a rattle trap and caught, i taught there was a lot of bass out there at the bend, are they that hard to catch?

Toledo is the easiest place Ive ever fished for bass but the bigger bass are harder to find...I predict 20+lbs is gonna be needed to win this thing...I hope I can make it but wont know til the week before

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

catdaddy will be there..


wooooohooooooo

[Fishmaster]

wooooohooooooo

Yak'em yu still up?

[QUACKHEAD]

That's just wrong there YAK'em... You gotta tell everyone the hot holes, not just Bob. lolol :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Bob, If you need more distance, I have a solar panal I can bring ya ... j/k... Hope ya got everything running right.

From reading the threads, it sounds like there are several camps right in the area. Who would have thought there were that many S/C members right there.

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

I'm on gangplank trail. At the corner at the top of the hill

[Mediumheavyaction6'6]

I'm on gangplank trail. At the corner at the top of the hill

are we going to make this life partnership official and fish this tournament together?

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

there is a good chance of that.

BOTB has first dibs with me if my dad fishes,

if either of them doesnt then your in

[longsidelandry]

I'm off that weekend, I may be able to make it. I would need a partner and a place to crash. Never been bass fishing or to Toleo Bend so it'll be full of 1st's for me!

[Mediumheavyaction6'6]

yak'em and I realized that is regionals for baseball so neither of us are going to make it

[BIGJ]

Man I wanted to go, but the family vacation is scheduled for the 5th-13th:(

[LPfishnTIM]

not to sure about this one i never caught many bass before, then again how hard could it be to catch 5 bass.


I fish tournaments all the time and most of the time there is always someone who doesn't catch any bass. Some days you can can cull 5x others you be lucky to catch 1 or 2. You might catch 20 bass and 5 of them might be legal size and then again that is unlikely! It's unpredictable!

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

I won't be making it. It is super regional weekend for NCAA baseball. Sorry guys.

Dude, this ain't river fishing. Best thing is it will probably be an April/May spawn, so carolina and crank bait bite should still be good. Hope the jig bite is on by then.

As of right now, I plan on going up on Thurdsay afternoon and maybe Wednesday.
