Well we had a little family tournament this evening. It was me and my dad against my two older brothers. It was very close and down to the wire. Our first fish was about an hour into the day and it was a MONSTER.My dad caught him on a Ribbit frog. Weighed in at 6.41 lb! (Pictured Below.)

We were PUMPED! We thought we were for sure winning throughout the whole day, but we werent sure because my brothers were fishing at a different location. It was the total weight of 6 fish so we still had alot of fish to catch. When we seen them fishing somewhere we stopped and asked them what their weight was and they said they had one .48 lber. We told them we had one decent one. :-X So a few hours later we had our 6 fish. We probably had about 13 lbs so far. Well later in the day we found out that my brothers were telling a little fib and they actually had 2 fish over 3.5 lb and 1 over 4 lbs. (All pictured below, and all caught on a BPS Sticko (sp?)) They had over 14lbs.

So me and my dad were not looking as good as we thought we were. It was in the last 30 minutes and i casted my big ol wacky worm (7 and 1/8) out and hoped for the monster bite to put us over top. Well as you might of guessed, my drag was smokin! When I seen it jump I was praying to GOD that it didn't spit the hook. It didn't! It ended up being 4.96 lbs and put us in a good lead torward the end of the day. (Fish below)

They didn't catch any more fish and we had them in the total for the day. Their weight was 14.96 lbs and ours was 16.89 lbs. All fish were released. Had a fun night of fishing and won 10$ in the process! Win Win to me!

Nice outing, nice fish, awesome idea. I wills surely do the same.

Thanks. We had alot of fun. We have done it if you weigh it you have to use it (can't think of what thats called right now) and that is just too brutal ;D

Man i love those family tourneys! It is usually me and my little bro against my big mouth older bro and my uncle. Sometimes friends will get in on it too! It can get pretty ugly though! i have seen car titles being put down when the trash talking starts! Anyways, awesome fish you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!
