Top 51 on the water today, with Saturday being a day off for all. Sunday is final 12 for the win. Slightly different than in the past.

3 of my guys are moving on and I jumped up 7%.

If I remember right, no one is fishing today due to the BASSFest format. I debated on picking Alton Jones Jr. because he has a strong history on this lake with the Texas Team trail, which is arguably one of the best tournament groups in the country right now. Ultimately I chose to steer clear due to his horrible recent finishes. My loss. 

I thought the same thing about today. Taking Saturday off for the Fan Fest thing does make more sense though.

Another mediocre showing for me, three fishing today (Defoe, Powroznik, Lucas), but nobody looks like they'll be anywhere near the final cut.  Oddly, my overall % hasn't budged, still 93%.  Actually on pace to be my worst event so far.

...In fact, I will go out on a limb and predict Kelly Jordan will weigh in a 29+ lb bag tomorrow (he says with fingers crossed).  A pair of 8 lb twins and 3 in the 4+ lb range.

 

Jordan comes to the stage in a truck, meaning he caught at least 1 fish over 21".  I wonder, did he pull this off & make my look like a genius??  Weight, 12 lbs

 

Missed it by that much...

One bass for twelve pounds would have been a Tundra

2 terrible tournaments in a row. 

Im killing it in FLW this week.

 

3 in top 6 including 1 and 2.

 

And 6 in top 30

 

A 53rd and a 97th.

 

Im in 32nd place for tournament.  Hopefully some of my guys outside top 10 will jump into it...but guy leading fantasy fishing has nearly 2000 points...must have picked all top 8 anglers....

Moved up to 24th with 1st 2nd and 3rd

 

 

However I dont have much room for improvement so I doubt I win any of my leagues prize packages.  So close.

One thing I learned  from watching these tourneys is I'm not using jerk baits enough .

Had 4 guys move on to day 3.Nobody cracked the top 12

Another thing I learned is the pros loose a high percentage of big fish too .

I'm so excited for the Lake Dardanelle event - this is why I play fantasy fishing right here. Tons of history on this lake, tons of old results to look up up, lots of anglers that are going to get overlooked. I've never had such a long list of guys to narrow down. This one is going to be really fun.

Yeah, that what I said about Okeechobee right before I bombed that event.

I've already picked . I'm sticking with three of my team from last tourney that bombed so bad . 

I won an FLW hat...maybe next time Ill cash a check

Get ready fellas, Dardanelle starts on Thursday!

I actually spent a little more time picking for this tourney and changed my original picks . I expect some of the veterans are going to do well . Klein has a whole bunch of top ten finishes at Dardenelle and the Arkansas river .

I need to do my research for this one. I'm at the 85th percentile and I'm 17th in our group. We've got a good group of guys this year. 

My flw hat is pretty cool and got a kvd sexy frog.

 

For dardanelle

A.  Lefebre:  versatile and on fire

B.  Pace:  jig fisherman and check casher

C.  Lowen:  jig guy and limit getter...due for a high finish

D.  Prince:  good hx at dardanelle and can pitch a lure

E.  Lucas:  good with a jig/t-rig and is too good for this bucket.

A: Defoe

B: Combs

C: Rook

D: Klein 

E: Grigsby

All of my picks have a good history on this lake. I'm hoping it pays off.

I thought seriously about Clunn . Hes made a lot of money on that system . 

They must have pushed the start back a day. It starts on Friday and runs to Monday.

Memorial day pushed everything back.
