I will post this now for future reference.
Had I been there prior to the commencement of fishing; the Johnson Creek ramp and surrounding area has excellent protection from south winds up to 30mph…and the fishing can be very good in that area….Im not giving out my honey holes in the J creek vicinity; but there’s some great structure and submerged cover in that area.

The launch is directly across the road from Willow Springs…takes seven minutes to get there.

Man, we had 25 show up for the 1st Annual Der Coachenator Fishing Tournament and Wet TShirt Contest (Wives). Myself and 1Shot won first place on Pines with a bag of 39.69 pounds and the closest team to us was about 15 pounds. We won't disucuss winners of the Wet T Shirt contest (Though WAWI Tried to enter), you should have been there. Wind was perfect and the beer. flowed like wine. WAWI brought 15 bottles of Blanton's to share. Country Tavern catered for us and no steaks were burnt. No need to go to the casino as we have a poker tournament that night in which the team of Der and 1shot also won and took home a jackpot of $10,000. We plan to do this every year on a lake that doesn't completely stink like Fork or Texoma. Can't wait to see everyone next year!

RJ and I meet up and drive to marina just 14 min away and fih for a bit find a bite and call it a day when BcBasscat calls that he's there. So we go back to the doublewide and start drinking. RJ and I are kinda hungry and I need to run to wal mart to get some line and spike it. BC decides to fish. We go eat a a place we had passed with a ton of cars in the parking lot so we figured it's got to be good. Well It was AYCE catfish night. RJ eats an omelet I get a regular order of catfish cause that's more that I can eat anyways. It must have been cooked in a nuclear reactor cause my mouth is still burning it was so hot. Make it to wal mart it's a typical Oklahoma wal mart. We go back to the cabin and give BC his burger he sked us to pick up for him. we drink more beer. Then it's off to the casino again. Same deal for me I'm off to bubble craps they ramble from slot machine. I give back about 300 of previous winnings. But as we are about to leave the tribal police have RJ under lock and chain. They claim he played at a machine that someone left money in. He denies it, but they claim to have video proof. So for 40min they have him under interrogation and are reviewing the film. Finally we get to go with nothing coming of it and make it back to the cabin at 1:30am. I park unknowingly where the back door is right above a culvert, and RJ about breaks his drunk leg getting out of the truck, but comes out ok. I grab a beer to relax a bit before bed and settle down on the couch to play on my phone and BC is already snoring so loud I can hear it in the next room. 5am come and we get up hoping BC will cook breakfast but all we get is a honey bun. Bout 7 we start fishing and that happens. RJ back seats me and catches all the fish himself save for a bluegill and a 6" smallie on my last cast. We get out 5 fish limit while BC and Lconn get skunked. So that makes RJ and I BACK to BACK to BACK CHAMPS. Back to the cabin we go we drink till the wee hours of the morning. OH and DOC showed up. BC burnt the steaks. Sunday morning Doc wakes up to a flat tire but has a pump. SO he takes off early and limps it to durants wal mart. BC leaves and RJ and I say our goodbyes shake hands as champs again. I saw gas for $3.09 next to the casino so I go there to get gas, and decide that it's early so might as well try out the craps machine again. Well I put in $100 and two hours later cash out $657. Make the safe drive home and the trip is over. So till next year RJ and I will remain the Champs of the TFF OT bass fishing. Till some of you [censored] show up who like to fish and drink beer and have fun.


Recap from all reports including this run on sentence.

Four people fished. Only RJ caught anything. Ratz claimed victory. BC burnt steaks. Lconn got pulled over twice. Once for speeding and once for driving like a drunk. RJ got squeezed by the injun Police for violating the rules of "Finders Keepers". Doc got there late, got a flat tire, and went to Wal-Mart. The bathroom at the shared trailer stunk bad. Ratz gambled a lot and claims to have won nearly $700.

And also if we did not go we are [censored].

Sounds like a great trip! Mostly gambling, drinking and driving with about 3 hours of fishing mixed in.



The real hero in this whole debacle.

Thank you Dan


I forgot to mention that rj’s and ratz fish looked like they could have spent the previous day in live well.. they were beat to fk… 🤣

I'm noticing a trend here, it seems there is law force involvement somehow in ratz outings. There was the dove hunt hospital incident, now this...... God knows what we don't hear about. And yes RJ is another common denominator but I hunted all year with him and we never had LEO encounter so it's ratz.

The way y’all celebrated made me believe it was the only fish y’all caught on tournament day… the rest were those beat up practice day fish! 🤣
