Chambers County Lake Tournament 3/30/13

Amazing condition were the setting Saturday. Overcast light wind with temps in the high 50's to low 60's. Water was at 59 all day. Started the day off with 2 missed bites. Caught one at around 9:30 just big enough to keep. Found some small fish on beds. Spent 45 mins on one bass, never hit at anything I put in his bed or hit him with. Same story for the others on bed. My partner never even got a bite the whole day. It was the same for some of the other teams. We were 1 of the 6 teams that caught a fish. I have no clue what we were doing wrong. We tried everything. I don't know. We came in 6th so it wasn't so bad. Had a little fun too.

Chambers County Tournament Saturday

Haven't had a tournament in over a month now. I'm getting a little shaky I think. I've been counting down the days. We usually do pretty good at this lake. It's probably the best lake we fish in the series.  I'll let y'all know how it went.

Bama Jigs Jake's Craw Review

Bama Jigs sent me an assortment of colors of their Jake's Craw. They are great quality jigs packaged with a Paca Craw from Net Baits that goes perfectly with these jigs. The unique weight system helps the jig sit right on the bottom as you drag and hop it. Another thing that makes these unique is the screw on trailer holder instead of just threading it onto the hook your trailer will not slid down. The rattles are very audible also. They were featured in FLW magazine this year also. I know I will catch a lot of bass on these in the future. You can order from this link: www.bamajigs.com

Bedding Bass 10+

Went fishing next door in a small lake I've been fishing for a long time. Bass were on beds everywhere. Found this one near the dam with a 2lb male. Caught the male then caught the female the next cast. Had to hit her in the face a few times before she picked it up to carry it out of her bed. I figure she weighed between 10 and 12. Would've been more if she hadn't laid her eggs already. Didn't have a scale and didn't want her to die on the way to get her weighed. So she is still swimming in there to be caught when she's a state or world record!
