It sounds like some of the local hammers were on the lake this weekend. Any of y’all care to share your patterns? There was a thread with a guy that caught 22 pounds Saturday and then said he backed it up on Sunday with 24 pounds.  The thread got nuked before I could ask him how many pounds he had on Friday?

And for some if you guys that havent fished it, that lake is covered in road beds, pond dams, foundations, humps, junk piles, ditches, the legendary windmill. You can spends a week hitting offshore stuff and not fish the same thing twice. And be frustrated as hell afterwards.

The classic pattens were fish flooded bushes. It worked well the first 2 hours of the first day then it sucked because they ran out of fish. In my opinion I expected them to have mixed in some deep fish and some shallow offshore fish like Kennedy’s lost 8 plus. I think they saw the flooded bushes and just sold out to it because it made sense. In my opinion though they left a lot of fish out there primarily the big ones. I’ve never seen a school of em but one here one there deep is possible right now. Why you think that is, I have never been able to find groups off shore either. Low fish numbers, lots of stuff for them to spread out on, lots of bait everywhere? One here one there is pretty accurate except when it's none anywhere lol Just low fish numbers of old ones if I had to guess. For example we hit up I think 8-9 deep spots yesterday evening and only had fish on 3 and only had big fish off of 1 of those 3. Just a goofy lake hell Idk. I had thought some of the guys that are really good on the Livescopes & Active Targets would have found some bigger fish off shore later in the day but I was wrong.

Going off their practice the winning weight was in the bushes. Problem is, it's not a Rayburn where it replenishes or you can do it all over the lake for several days straight. They had no idea that's how it fishes. You're catching or shaking off 30-40 fish a day with several good ones, that's definitely what you're going with at that lake level. Hard to anticipate that weather also.

I found it a little funny how Zona kept saying all throughout the live broadcast day 1 and 2 that there was no doubt the tournament was going to be won offshore by day 3.
Wrong......lol

I thought I read where someone said TP&W did a survey and the lake showed overpopulated for bass? And Shad too. Might the overpopulation of Shad be a factor?

They never really locked in off shore last summer either. I mean some did, but it wasn’t like years past.
The lake is just weird man. Looks awesome, but fishes damn tough.
If it wasn’t for the first hour on Friday, we would have seen ever smaller bags.

LOL There were a few of the 100 that had never been to Ft Worth so they played along and took the bit hoping to check out the FTW Zoo and maybe get to see the Water Gardens or take a side trip over to Hurricane Harbor.
