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. who_knows

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.

Ok Nick I’ll give em a better lookin at... I got my new fuel tank installed this weekend and I’m gettin closer every day but you talk about a lotta work. I still gotta patch up the console, re-install all my trolling motor batteries and charger and all of my engine / operating batteries and chargers... then re run new fishfinder cables and remount my 360. Then I might be ready...



Ahh the joys of boat ownership!! bang
I was cursing my boat for 1.5 years before I finally got it running great again.. And now I love my baby!!!!"I pet it and stroke it coochie coochie coo!!!!!"..lol!!! You know what I'm sayin Rick!!!!..lol!!! freak hammer nuts

You need a bait license...
