I was so ready and out early this morning and of course that set me up for a frustrating outing. I fished in vain and only caught two mini. I will post them later. I'm off to sulk lol.

Went out this morning and got a few. @85.5" top 5 so far.....

Nice outing this morning Fstr385, some good looking fish.

I got to get on the computer so I can post my catches from last evening and only one I managed this morning.

And..... FSTR is back ladies and gentleman. Nice to see you back in the game and really getting my competitive juices going! LOL.

Keep your head, up "there's no sulking in bassfishing!!"

Shan, what were using to catch these guys on? What part of town?

well i got out to tenoroc fish mgt area this morning from 6  to noon and got 6 fish, i caught all of them on a zoom white fluke, this was my first time taking pictures and i did poorly, so if any of these pics are not good enough i will be ok with that, i will let lou decide, i did get 2 really good ones a 20 inch and a fat 22 inch, the other were 16, 15, 14 and 12.

  i will post the pics as soon as i learn how to do it.

1st fish is 22 inch, 2nd fish is 20 inch

3rd fish was 16 inch

4th was 14 inch

5th was about 15 or 16 but it hard to see it in this pic

lou let me know if any of these pics are ok

Rovingmutt your pics are fine, you will get better over time. Some are more focused than others, but I am not going to nit pick, the sizes look legit. WTG!! Nice catches. I have your catches documented, and guess what? For now you are the leader at 87". Fstr is in 2nd with 85.5"  Martin in 3rd with 69". Nice numbers going into the month on day 5 guys/gals.

Shan, what were using to catch these guys on? What part of town?

on shore in pompano near my house. got there around 715 n left about 9. started slow with Okeechobee ocho`s, then noticed schools on the prowl and switched to a natural colored lil john. got a few strikes but most of the fish missed or didn't want it, so I put on a lil john spring craw and burned it and got a few more. If Id have had some of the right color frogs, I probably would have ripped some of them too. The fish are definatly schooling up and on the hunt now. Goin to try a new spot tomorrow down near dania... after the morning top water bite, Im going to burn everything. traps, spinners, jerks, and shallow bills and see if the numbers increase

With weather cooling down in S. FL. I have a feeling this will be a very fierce competition!!! Finally!!!

Lol agreed

Dynomyte I got your fish down. Ak, is being all supportive to everyone, you are not fooling me. It's obvious you have gone fishing.

Hey Ninja (aka: AK)  who's not fooling anyone. Be careful what you ask for, I do not have problems taking back invitations.

Before I shut down for the night. I wanted to congratulate everyone who has started with strong numbers right off the bat. I agree with Martin, the field has been set to have a very competitive October. Who knows what tomorrow brings. I know Lgmouth and maybe Martin (if he behaved, LOL..) are going out on the boat tomorrow. Fstr is back in the fight, and you know surprises will happen there. AK.... well AK thinks he is going to be slick and surprise us at the end of the month with extraordinary numbers. TightlinesJax has yet to post, but that doesn't mean anything. He will post strong numbers. Are current leader Rovingmutt the new kid on the block is showing promise. It's anybody's tournament. We have officially 20 people and the cutoff I just remembered is tonight.

Haha Lou you know I am joking. That'd be great if we could set something up where all us can link up.

Nice catches. I've got some work to do tomorrow.

Gonna go out early in the AM. Not sure where yet though.

AK, a little down the road, when you narrow down when your actually coming down we will plan it right and have our own meet and greet Fl bragging rights style.

Yea definitely I will hopefully we get some of those south FL monsters but I'm more interested in the peacocks

We went out this morning Bass Czar, Jaxbasser, and Dave (he said he is going to come back to the site). We fished at OPCC then me and Derrick went to Gate and Dave and Jaxbasser went somewhere else. The fish were biting so I'm sure Jaxbasser will be on here later

Oh BTW, I don't know if anyone was following but are field of participants has been locked at 20. No one stepped up for a last second entry. This month what I will post differently, will be the top anglers. Instead of the top 5, as per some of your request, I will post top 10. Also remember we recognize big fish for the month, so pls remember your scales. We do not play " what's your guess of this fish's weight" game. You forgot your scale and you caught a big fish, we will "ooh and ahh"  your catch but the recognition goes to the one who actually weighed their fish. I will report tonight after everyone has posted there catches for the weekend. Good Luck to everyone, including you the "obvious ninja".

AK, and your catches and pics are where????...... I would like to get some insight on what you are trying to accomplish keeping your catches a secret?

There's no secret It's gonna take 100" to win so when I'm there ill post em, bout 6" away I think. I haven't caught any WOW fish so I just haven't posted. The fishing has been on fire though.

I'm thinking Jaxbasser will take the lead when he logs on

Can't believe we have that many people this month things are going to be tight.

May be our first ever fish off with a tie
