I'm ready
 

I am way overdue for a first place finish. I have been fishin this thing for like 16 or 17 years now. Best I have done was tied for first place but lost the tie breaker to a croaker soaker.

Our friend won last year...I had a good one on that made a b-line for the anchor rope and SNAP, he was gone:cry:...I know he was at least 6 or 7 lbs...Bought jumped in after him too...Hopefully that won't happen this year or I may be liquored up at weight in :spineyes:

I got 7th last year.

Croaker soaker won it last year.:shaking:

Yeah I hate it. Wish there were seprate divisions. Artificial and a croaker soaker division.

I got a severe sunburn out of the tournament last year...lol...that's about it :shaking:

My boat did good

Chris Reed got 6th and I was 26th....but we caught some good trout that day

What did you get for 26th:*****::*****::*****:nothing:*****::*****:

Pfttttttttttttttt
Your boat my ***... If i can remeber we were in my boat SON.....

:*****::*****::*****::*****::*****::spineyes::spin eyes::spineyes::spineyes: he has been exposed to all that oil out there he cant see:*****::*****::*****:

Im a boatless sun of a gun this year

Just got the word................ IM IN THIS

Will take that again.........

26th out of 144 is not so bad........Some did not ever weight in??? HUMMMM

Its on.....you are with me......Im fishing it.......:D

SFA is that weekend

They had to cancel it for some reason but it had nothing to do with oil I am sure

Ofcourse not! :shaking:

Someone said that some Tar Ball in Africa washed up.........

did they really cancel that sfa stop in lake p

My mom is fishing with me so y'all don't have a chance!!

5th last year and I caught 3 over 5. 5 th paid 50$, son placed 10th in the yout division.

Yeah, 7th paid the same.

If the wind lays down I think we may see something close to 9lbs win. With the wind it may be in the low 7lbs that wins it.

the live release bonus usually comes into play big time within the Top 5. Make sure to keep those big girls alive.

Yeah that is what bumped me up. I had a 5.25 but with the bonus that put me at 5.75.

Tide
 

The tide is gonna play a big role that weekend cuz there wont be much of any current movement that day till after weigh in......

Will"E"Fish will be Chunking for the glory.

yea, been hearing good reports of nice trout being caught , i just hope we have a little luck on our side, i will see yall there and good luck to everyone.

You and Marty fishing it? Good luck man

yea, on call this weekend so that means no fishing:cry: but next weekend it's on, just hope i catch one worth weighing, you gonna fish it?

Don't think a 9lb will be caught with calm winds...too many boats acting the fool...7lb wins it...

Not the tourney but I should be out there just fishin

A week or so after the full moon is the best fishing of the month. I think there is a good chance we will see a fish over 8lbs win.

agree with W....too many boats running around. Usually 7 even wins the thing. Anything 5 + with a live bonus will have you sitting pretty IMO.

FYI, the citgo gas station across from cracker barrel has 2.49 reg. unleaded, thats the cheapest I have seen in a while, better go fill er up for the shootout.......

I would bet money the winner comes out of West Cove. Lots of big fish have come out of there this week.

last years tourny the cove was stacked with boats, spooks the fish off

I bet the winning fish comes out of Moss Lake or the LNG plant.

I will be in Orlando with the kids; yall have fun.

don't shoot Donald ;) Have fun!

When your good your good!!!
