Trying out my new camera....

I am trying out this new GO Pro hero2 camera I got from Tacklewarehouse.  My boy(Lake) is in some of this one.  

Lake of Egypt...

   Went up to ake of Egypt on last Thursday to prefish for the Bassworldsports event.  Me and Doug got up there around 830 after I got off work at 7am and went out on the Lake to see if we could get something going and we ended up finding some on a jerkbait.  So on Saturday we started out in the same area as we did last tournament and caught a 4.30 fish in the first 35 minutes and some slot fish.  We then just started moving around and fishn some other areas we knew and one place we wanted to get on, but a boat was on it(they ended up winning).  We caught a fair amount of fish throughout the day and ended up with 12.26lbs and good enough for 4th place and a check.  We were throwing a rigs and jerkbaits on Lews reels and Powell rods (7105 and 703cb).

1st trip of 2012 ....

    Me and  Jack Harper made it down to Kentucky Lake yesterday for some fishing and we had a blast.  We caught at least 35 keepers and several 4lbers.  Our best 5 weighed around 24lb, with the biggest a 6lb 6oz.  All were caught on the Alabama Rig, using Powell rods, Lews reels, and 65lb braid.  If you haven't experienced the Alabama rig yet you owe it to yourself to try it out.

Day on Kentucky Lake ....

   Went down to Kentucky Lake yesterday with a friend of mine Ben Helmerich.  We had a geat time fishing, caught several fish and had over 20lb with our biggest 5.  It was just a good day to be on the water, wind wasn't howling and sun was out.  Here are a couple pics:

Bassworldsports at Lake of Egypt ....

    Well  me and Doug fished the Bassworldsports tournament at Lake of Egypt this past Saturday and ended up finishing 2nd place.  We had practiced on Thursday and Friday and not had a whole lot of luck, but had caught some on jerkbaits and rigs.  So after Friday I had decided that I was going to throw a rig all day long and jerkbait some to.  We had a limit at 10:00 and caught about 9 lake keepers throughout the day and ended up with 13.62 lbs.   I was using a 735 frog rod and a 766 flippn stick, with 65lb braided line.

Vacation is over...

     Well I've been on vacation for a while and have been bowhunting and took a couple does.  I have had 2 opportunities at mature bucks and should be tagged out but had some people on 4 wheelers run one off and wind swirled on another for a split second.  So last night I went back to work, but will have a few more days off starting on Thursday.  Will be starting to fish a few tournaments this winter at Lake of Egypt.   Check back to see what happens.

Bassworldsports at Lake Egypt ...

     Well went up to pactice for the tournament about 2 weeks before and 2 awesome days, had 15lb one day and 19lb the next fishing the same pattern.  So I was a little fired up about these results since I had not been on the Lake but one time since Feb and that was at night.  Thursday before the tournament I went up and caught some again out deep and also some schooling and felt good about our chances to at least get in the top 3.  After first stop I boated several fish and 3 keepers.  Then we moved aroud and several more fish, but could not getem to hold on the the bait and would pull off after setting the hook and fighting them for a min.  So we ended the day with only 4 keepers and not the start I wanted, but it happens and we will try again next time.  My next event is the regional at Lake Dardanelle, Arkansas.  I will be leaving for practice on Oct 29th.  Hopefully I can get into the top 6 !


GOD Bless
