I believe a guide from LBJ.. barefoots charles whitted fishing I think. dont know where he caught them, I fished my ARSE off and hooked one and lost him, and caught one but too small. not much baitfish in main lake that I could find. The event was awesome, and I will sure try to fish it again next year. LOTS of food, prizes, fellowship, a really world class event. Nowhere else on the planet do I know of where you can enter a tournament free of charge, and possibly win a 28,000 bass boat, or thousands in prize money, and even if u dont win, you get a load of free stuff, hats, t shirt, 20.00 crank baits, floating key chains, rage tail plastic worm, tackle bag, rods, ect. Krispy Kreme donuts tournament morning, , hot dogs, chip, sausage wraps, candy. catering from Rudys barbeque, all the tea you can drink, food and prizes at the weigh in. just a SPECTACULAR event. The guest speaker was the bassmaster classic winner, another pro was there and fished, G klien. Just a great bunch, and lots of happy times. Everything ran like a fine swiss watch.
COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

Had a great time. Only caught a couple dinks. Lake Belton was the chopiest I have ever seen it. Really impressed with how well it was run, and looking forward to next year.

225 boats going full blast in all directions all morning really made it a washing machine. Glad I was in a good sized bay boat. I was fighting the waves going back to the ramp at abt 35 MPH , and see a boat that looks like a giant can of bug repelant pass me at around 75 mph. ha
