The tournament was a two day team trail event. I first have to post sad news. On of the competitors was killed on the water today. Please read this post for details:

It was a tough weekend for fishing. Over half the field was skunked yesterday (including myself), The top two weights were 16+ and 12+. Today was the same except I had 17.3 pounds and the leaders were struggling. My weight (would) have had me in 3rd place. ven today left over half the field with empty bags. I evaluated my lack of fish on saturday and went in on Sun with a whole different approach; light line, slow presentations, deep water with thick vegetation (post spawn). Here is why my eight would have been a 3rd place finish:

Istokpoga is a 3 fish limit lake (and a slot limit) our exemptions only removed the slot limit. This tournament trail is a team format so 5 best fish per boat is within the laws. I didn't have a partner this weekend (his wife was diagnosed with cancer). So I was only allowed 3 fishthe trail said I was allowed to weigh 5 but it was my responsibility to deal with FWC if I got caught.well I got caught with 5 fish and he made me throw all fish back He weighed, measured and photo'd each fish. My two biggest were 6# and 5#. I got away with a warning and he wouldn't let me go back and fish the rest of the day. I would of went back out and got 5 fish again so its best he kept me out of the water.
