I spent a few hours Saturday with a buddy practicing for Sunday. Fished with my brother on Sunday in our Century Bass Club tournament. I ended up not losing a fish the whole time. Problem is I only caught 5 fish and all were too short. I never lost a keeper but I didn't get a keeper bite all weekend. I think we all knew it was going to be tough but the problem is the lake for my type of fishing looks great and you feel like every cast is going to get bit. So for the two days I ended up using the following baits trying to catch a keeper fish - Jig, Chatterbait, Frog, Fluke, Swim jig, Buzzbait, CrawTube, Texas rigged worm, Senko, Swim bait and Carolina rig. I tried to catch fish but it didn't happen for me and a lot of guys I know. We had about 28 anglers for our tournament and only 6 anglers caught fish with 3 fish for over 5 lbs won and big fish of just under 5 lbs.
The good things is I had a blast and loved the weekend fishing and also an extra bonus was a house that one of the members found that we rented for the weekend. Places to stay around Tawakoni are pretty scarce and he found a house that we stayed in that was pretty awesome. Two large beds, a small day bed and a large comfortable sofa. A nice covered front porch area with nice large shaded front yard. TV with satellite, full kitchen. Just a really nice place that can comfortable sleep four people. All in all a great weekend even though keeper bass were not part of it.
