I was planning on fishing this, but it's up in the air now. My new outboard was already supposed to be installed and they haven't even started yet. My tournament partner just told me that he doesn't have enough money to go fishing let alone fish the tourney and will be working all week instead.

Roller coaster continues... Hot Thursday, big wind Friday and Saturday?
Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

I'm just going to throw this out there in case someone is interested. I'm going to be in town (Athens) this weekend and don't have any other commitments so here we go....
I think it would be fun to fish this tournament but there are a few things preventing it. 1. The entry fee is steep 2. My Triton is being re-powered, Michael has guide trips with our big blazer, and I only have access to our 21' Blazer 3. My brother and dad cant fish it with me
However, I would love to fish this thing with someone under these terms if possible:
I will provide:
The boat, fuel, all tackle, bait, enough knowledge of Tawakoni to enjoy a safe day on the lake and most likely catch some nice fish
You provide:
All entry fee/registration $ and a good attitude
If we win any prize money we split the pot down the middle. I am a licensed guide and own a guide service on Lake Livingston (Lake Livingston Adventures) that my brother operates. I have been doing it part time for about 8 years. I'm pretty new to trophy catfishing but have been chasing Texas freshwater species most of my life and catch on to patterns and techniques relatively quick. If anyone is interested please send me a PM. Thanks

If I hadn't already picked up a partner I would jump on this. Someone will get to fish the tournament and learn a ton about chasing trophies for less than the price of most guided trips.

Big cold front coming thru Arkansas on friday dropping temps from 74* to 40 dont know how far south but with that much drop there has gotta be a big wind behind it
If it ain't broke don't fix it...but go ahead and work on it anyway.....

You need a bait license...

You need a bait license... I thought about it. I love catching gizzards!

Dang that's a heck of a net of shad. Was that at two? Recently?
