Seventh out of 14 boats for my secend ever club tourney. Had a fun day. My partner caught 3 (2 keepers) and i caught 2 (1keeper). Even though we caught just 3 keeps, it was a fun learning experience. My two pound (on the dot) keeper was the fourth largest bass of the tourney behind an 8.25, 5, and 4.2. Our total weight came to be 4.03lbs. We would have had sixth place with just .03lbs more, even though that team had four fish. The eight was caught on an 8" swimbait My two fish were caught on a MMII colored Roboworm Sculpin, 4" On of my partners fish were caught with that while the other two were caught with a six inch straight tail roboworm in prism shad color. 4 of the fish, includung my two, were caught on the drop shot. My confidence in this technique has gone way up in the past two months. I never really fished it before 2008. The last fish was caught on the split shot. It was one of the keepers. Our seventh place finish was better than my ninth of the first tourney. I got a slight boost in the point standings. I am still 20th since i missed the first tournament. Besides freezing my butt off in the freezing breeze (im glad i bought some thin goretex gloves the night before), I had a pretty good day overall. I would also like to mention that this is the longest post i have ever written. ;D dd11

i have a pack but have not tried them out of the package though, they look great

my mistake, its actually MMII, i just looked it up at roboworms site

my partner and i caught three on purple drop shot worms it was the Roboworm Sculpin, 4" in MMIII color. the other two were caught on a straight tail sassy shad(?) color. EDIT: the straight tail color that my partner caught fish on is called prism shad, not sassy shad dd11

if you school them every time, your friends should know who is better, even if they beat you once. Besides, just tell them that youre learning something new. Maybe youll catch a new PB and further your bragging rights

bass eggs need sunlight to mature; therefore, that being said, bass will spawn usually at the deepest depth that they can, but still get sunlight on their eggs

SSSSSAAAAAAWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTT!!!! cant wait i love the consistency and smell of netbaits plastics

that actually looks like a pretty cool lure BUT...sorry to not be able to help dd11

Really???? hmm...

throw a shad colored fluke

i will agree it does look a lot like the vision, but, after a close comparison, the vision has a different head and bill

spinnerbait

Next year, take her out i the boat with you

i pay about sixty bucks just for a rental boat plus the gas to get to the lake which is usually about an hour long drive not to mention my addiction for fishing gear. ;D

a hollow topwater frog is pretty close to your #11

u guys make me feel terrble i walked out with about 550 dollars which included about 450 dollars worth of tackle. I bought one reel, a quantum KVD sig series. Picked up several lucky craft cranks, and some SK jerks, spro little johns, spro bronzeye frogs and some fishing line as well as a browning worm bag(very nice). Bait monkey sure got me. I have been saving money for a couple months for this though.

interesting story i can answer one of your questions of what to throw next time NOT the magic shad, or any other bait you use a lot or it has seen a lot, throw something unique and original, maybe work on something tonight, no matter how odd or bad, and throw it at it tomorrow dd11

nice what on?

catches fishermen not fish

someone on here caught two fish with them a couple weeks ago

pretty much and also, most jerks suspend were as most cranks float
