I don't know how many miles of that river I covered over the week but all it netted me was 1 fish that weighed 2.55#. I knew I needed to go look at changing it up completely and it just never came together. I got 1 single bite in 2 practice days. Hey, at least we didn't win a door prize AGAIN - hahaha. Outside of us just sucking at finding and catching fish, we had a blast. I love going out there and as usual Champs puts on a great show. I would however suggest one thing....have the Horseshoe Party on Thursday night and not Saturday night. I would say 90% of the teams are there on Thursday and it would be a lot easier to attend on Thursday than after a LONG day of fishing or in our case casting.

Tales from Champs , " I didn't catch fish but my boat is so fast that I should have". I forgot to mention that I was trolling while passing boats!  J/K Im sure someone would see this and want to protest me if I didn't put J/K on here.

I would consider an Xpress. If you put any 200 HP motor on a beer can it will fly.

Played tug of war with a small gator for my keeper as I was water skiing it over pads but i won. Fish lost half its head but survived the whole day and was alive at weigh in!

We won practice - had 13+ and 14+ on Wed & Thurs. Burned gas on Friday looking at stuff. Found 1 sand bar in Clarks that took about 30 minutes to get off of.
Won $500.00 playing Mississippi Stud at the Horseshoe on Friday night.
1 fish on day one, had 3 fish at 1PM on day two and decided to beat the 1 1/2 wait on the ramp and get back to Dallas.
Wish we could have figured out where our fish went with the north wind.
Boat 151 - never got passed on the river but passed a lot both days.
Up in 10 mile creek on day one and there are plenty of people that need their [censored] whipped for flying by boats on plane with in 25-30 feet
