Heavy boat traffic, wind, and the lake level fluctuating for day 1.  Sounds about right. 

Wheeler steams on out of oblivion again.

Day 1 for group B, group A fished yesterday and for probably the first time in BPT history the top two anglers combined age is over 120 years old. LOL

I was busy fishing this weekend, scoretracker says he was fishing some soft plastic craw in 0-5 ft on rock. Any more details on what he was doing? Shakeyhead? Were they all spawning bed fish? etc

Did some reading to save everyone time:

(yes he was bed fishing...)

Group A finished up.  Now that we're into the work week the lake should be more settled down.

And now the combined age of the top 2 anglers is 3 years younger than Shaw Grigsby. LOL

Seems most guys are bed fishing... so entertaining to watch 

 

Jones JR seems to be struggling on the beds today....

 

 

All the rain made for some dirty water, guys are having to change it up. All day and Wheeler is only at 13lbs? Must say something. 

 

Good to see Wiggins in the lead, I think he's throwing a shaky head on docks, one of the most basic ways to catch 'em!

Amazing, browning finally moved into some 'moving' water coming into the lake and is catching em! Seems VERY obvious the fish would like to sit here waiting for food to flow into the lake. I think JT earlier said he was surprised no one was heading to these water inlets to fish....

And Wiggins wins it on a shaky head...

Said he's just some redneck from Alabama and he likes throwing a worm.

I like rooting for the underdogs, I'm glad he won!! 

 

As for our FFS guys, I guess it didn't quite take the cake for this tourney, some of them it does. 

 

Glad to see a traditional technique take it

I’ve followed Wiggins for years, he indeed loves throwing the shakey
