Looking forward to the struggle! Who else is in?

If anyone is still looking for a place to stay then check out the link. I rented a place from this property owner and he still has availability.

I saw on a Facebook post of a 14# caught recently

They were weighing one that was amost 11 lbs this past Sunday afternoon at stow a way while I was loading the boat.

I'll be there!! Fishing Sat and Sun. I haven't seen anything that showed how many have signed up so far? Or anything from last year either. Should be fun!

Have you gotten your proper documents to cross over into Texas from Bossier? I should be there as well.

Fishing has been horrible the last couple of weeks. Tournament weights way down.some warm weather could make it break out.

I'm in! I hate that mudhole. I'll be running around a circuit of a dozen "spots" I found over the years. Be good to get off the metro-mess lakes.

thinking hard about going I have never been any advice on where to stay beside place mentioned above.

I am fishing it, my buddy talked me into it. I have never done a "big bass" style tournament. How early should we get on the water?

I get on the lake early enough to get to a spot before they send the text telling you to get fishing. The ramps do get busy right around sunup.

The rest of the day is all about thinking big!

Should be some toads weighed in.

We will be there Thursday afternoon. See everyone at Papas.


Read the rules so you dont get disqualified for something stupid

I will be driving down Friday night. I think this is my 10th year doing it and still have not cashed a check. Talk about hating a lake.
I go for the beer and the company. Good times with friends. Plus BBT guys put on an "AWESOME" tournament.

It is the hottest lake in Texas right now!

Good to hear you are going!

I hope they are biting!!!

use crappie

I will be there, my boat will be in the water starting Tuesday. Think this is my 8th or 9th yr, cashed at least one check every year.

Having lived in East Tx for 5 years before moving to NW LA this is really funny to me. Amazing how much better TX is on all levels. I live in LA now, sometimes i feel like i'm crossing the southern border into Amercan when i drive West of here on I-20 about 25 miles.

Where are you staying John ? Let's meet up Saturday before you go see your daughter.

Good luck tomorrow y'all!! See you on Sat/Sun!

Thankfully you guys are fishing for that 1 bite. Because that’s usually your average day on Conroe. Good luck!

Thanks Mark!

9.72 leading but it won't hold up.

Lots of 6 pounders hitting the scales!

Anyone have an idea on number of boats out there this weekend?

Where do you call home at? I work over here in shreveport and drive west on I-20 back to the great TX every day.

Yeah looking if you don't have at least a 4lber don't waste the time weighing it in. Good sign though as I'm not fishing for dinks anyways lol!! :-)

Bigger fish are starting to bite.

Do you live near Marshall?

Remember that 14? This is interesting post I just saw. Said it was found
on a stringer

I saw that too...

Fishing has been pretty tough lately. Weights show that so far. None over 10# yet and 10th overall is 7.22#.

10.65 weighted in 11-12 hour today

Lucky enough to get a 4.49lber and take 9th for the last hour today!! Only 3 bites total the whole between my partner and I. Ran all over from stowaway to Walden to Rinkers to Palms to north enough to see some road up there and all sorts of places in between.

So how did everyone do? Figured there would be som bigger bass caught but congrats to the winner, 10.65 I believe.

Had a great time and weather was actually pleasant for a change.

Worked areas where I thought pre-spawn bass would funnel into and picked off quite a few (mainly males waiting for a girlfriend) and my brother and I cashed a check each, missed a couple others by coming in at the wrong hour.

Tired from four straight days of fishing but can’t wait to do it again!

i got 8th one hour on friday, and had a buddy get 7th one hour on sunday. we caught a lot of small fish. we caught them from 1-12 foot deep,

Congrats y'all!! I don't know how many anglers there were but with the fishing as tough as it was y'all did WELL to land some $$ fish!! Sunday I think we had over 40 boats in/around us all day. Those fish were super skittish!

I got 4th on Saturday in the 2-3hour with a 6.24. I only caught one fish Friday, but Saturday I was on them and probably caught 15 or so.

^^ hey that's a great fish!! I was the guy parked next to y'all at the weigh-in and we talked some. Love those 6th sense shallow cranks with all the different color options that others don't have.

Congrats TexanTiger. Nice fish!

Thanks! I was fishing 1'-4' deep using one of 6th Sense new soft plastic "clout" worms.

I like that 80X for that same depth range! the extra wide wobble really deflects well off cover
