Who caught em? I didn’t. Literally there were 3 boats or Kayaks everywhere I wanted to be. Gave up with a few hours.

You are not far off on the count! Busiest day I’ve seen out there in a long time. I fished 3 hours and caught 3 small ones on an under spin.

Got a text that said Pirky was the same way, at least 40 or more beats, a lot for that lake.

I got 3rd. With 5 unders weighing 5.00.
.....oh. That was in the Boat class. Lol
Saw two overs. One was a 5.20, second place. 1st was ( i think) a 7 pounder-ish fish.
Bass were in less than 3 ft for me. Fished the reeds and back corners of docks....WHEN THERE WASNT A KAYAK HIDING BACK THERE! Caught around 38-40 fish. A few really fat 5-6 pound slots. Most commented on how bad it was. But it was pretty good.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

There were plenty of good fish caught in the kayak tournament. 76 anglers and a few good fish caught as well. Dont see how they're worse than jet skis but to each their own.

Jet skis don’t hide behind docks! And they ain’t after what I’m after! Just kidding either way. I am all for fishing any way ya can. A month ago, we had a tourney there and we did the “shotgun” start. Me and another dude in a BassCat took off, side by side, headed towards the dam. We blew through a herd of waterfowl. They all didn’t move fast enough and some may have been hit by some bows. If you heard us joking about a shotgun start this morning and plastic feathers flying, we really were just joking around. We were instructed by our TD to give you guys all the right of way.

I thought the Bassmaster Classic was going on. 100 kayaks. They worse than jet skis. How so? They are salt of the earth type anglers. I am not anti bass glitter boat. 80% of them are cool and respect yaks. You are in the 20%. Get used to the fact that yaks will be there. Some of the best anglers in the country fish from kayaks. You sir, can kick rocks. Go post more fake reports about Clark and Fairfield pal.
