Wham! One of the coolest feelings is finding new fish on new lakes. Makes me excited just talking bout it!
Great job Chris!

Why do I go fishing? To catch a box of fish and/or some quality time under the sun. Thank Heaven I never fail fishing in Texas, catching box fish or plenty of sunburn.

Sweet graph shots! Only 11,000 acres to hide, that's not even fair

Sweet graph shots! Only 11,000 acres to hide, that's not even fair Yeah Martin it made for some easy pickin's. The top pic was hybrids and the bottom was whites. There's no fish in Somerville!!! If you ask most of the locals thats the story big D. Out of 17 teams on 5 weighed in a hybrid on the first day. Lots of trolling and guessing takes place on that lake, but I've got a feeling thats about to change. We landed at least 70 hybrids each day. The only thing that concerned me was the fact that we didn't catch a single undersized hybrid, even when we were catching white bass... Weird for this time of year Excellent man! The throat cuts...to bleed em out? It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to bleed them but they did it to mark the fish that had been weighed or caught that day. I cut them all the first day because we won and I and I didn't want to leave any room for accusations since it was a two day tournament. I cut most of them the second day because we came back in early to eat a burger and take a nap and didn't want any to disappear out of our cooler before the weigh in.

Cut one gill and if in water they bleed out i do it at times makes cleaning a lot less messy and was curious if that a different way. Congrats on the win!
