Lock 8 This past saturday
« on: July 24, 2007, 08:27:46 PM »
A new club, Dixie Bass Club was having a tournament down there sat. I was putting in late (3 pm) while their weigh-in was in progress. The two guys I saw put their bag back in didn't seem to have but a few fish. One of the two I spoke to and he said they caught 2 right off the bat and thought they might have a good day...long story short...that was it! 2 fish all day long. I think the other guy had 3 fish maybe.... Anyway, Anyone know their winning weights?

I just talked with a buddy of mine that fished that tournament and I think he said 10.75 won the tournament and they also had big fish at 5 1/2 lbs. My buddy was second with 8 lbs. He said it was a very tough day fishing. They caught 8 fish and 5 of those were keepers. All their fish were caught early.

Must of just missed you, we took out at 2:30 and hung around and watch a bit of their weigh in - yes the winners killed that big fish, shame - said they did everything they could to keep it alive - the 4 others in their bag were "keepers" - all looked about a pound.  It was slow - most of the rest of that club weighed 2-3 fish and 2-3 pounds.  I don't know if they have a website.  E_Bassfisher and I only caught 3 fish between us.

Likely suffering from "baked by the sun" syndrome, I was.

You would need to do it on a fly rod, as they eat plankton ;D

I am amazed they can keep those 4 huge whale sharks in an aquarium being krill eaters with all the other fish.
