JET A Marina Classic....

Well my partner Doug and I went down to Kentucky Lake on Thursday and put in on Kentucky Lake to pre-fish for the tournament on Saturday. We stayed primarily on the north end of the lake with the wind predictions being around 30 to 40 mph gusts and a sw wind on saturday at about 20 to 25mph. We ended up the day on on Thursday with 5 fish and a little over 16lbs, all on shallow running crankbaits. Friday we started out on Barkley and at 100pm we left Barkley and went back over to Kentucky, since we had'nt caught a keeper by this time. At our first stop on Kentucky we landed a keeper running the same pattern as Thursday. Saturday we took off and it was rough, we could only run about 30mph and were passing boats! After our first stop we had 3 keepers by 10am and thought we might have a good day , but not long after the front went through, our fish just shut down. So we ended up in 16th place out of 305 boats, with 11lbs 5oz. We were throwing the crankbaits on Powell 754,753, and 684 rods with 15 to 12 lb Triple Fish Flourocarbon Line.  I have a BFL on Barkley April 17th so check back for the updates.

GOD Bless!!
