2200 people fished over 13 hours apiece or close to it and 8 fish were over the slot- that's over 25,000 hours of fishing and about 3000 hours of fishing to catch an over - boy that's a almost a years worth of fishing at 8 hours a day to get an over

My partner and I had 1 at 23 and 2 over 23 1/2. Frustrating but fun.

I wondered how long it would be after this event ended before Fork was declared dead.......again. Fork is full of good fish and I am not gonna judge it simply over the amount of overs weighed in. Not a lot of lakes anywhere you are catching tons of 24" plus fish. That length alone can make some really big fish not be weighable. That being said I learned a long time ago I ain't gonna change anyone's mind about any of it. To each his own.

I don't remember specifically where I read it but around 10 years ago it seems like TPWD said it takes around 10k man hours to catch a double digit fish.
Seems to support our mantra of "no replacement for time on the water"

Fork is dead,stay at home.
Really, who wants to go and have a day full of catching 3-5lb fish on average if you can't catch one over 24"...
The things people complain about....sheesh.

I would be curious to see how many of those anglers were chuckin 1/2 chart spinnerbaits or power worms. This ain't a farm pond and these fish ain't stupid...people expect this to be like the Disney lakes.

We weighed in 1 under, caught a few slots and several less than 2 pounds. Had a blast, looking forward to next years.
Wasn't crazy about Skeeter NOT giving away a boat for heaviest under, but still a great tournament.
Great job Bass Champs

Yep not many lakes you can go to and have 20+# in 35 minutes like we did yesterday morning. We had 8 slots yesterday from 3-7# and 4 dinks and 5 slots today and 2 dinks. Came close to a football under it was about a 1/16inch to long 3.25# football. Had a great time once again.

The other 1100 were constantly running from end to end on the lake.

Lol.also that's the way slot lakes go catch a huge stringer of fish and have to throw them all back.
1100 fished....

Won't say I'm a big fan of the huge BB tournaments But I had a great time out there even though I got 7 bites in a day and a half
Great job running it Bass Champs
