thats fine. congrats to whoever won. I wasnt fishing very far away and if I would have known it was at 2:00 pm i would ahve been there and 2:00 Pm. As for the announcements the only thing i heard on the P.A. was peoples names and boats roaring off.Whoever was at registration simply just took my money and my name. It isnt a big deal I just fished very hard the whole day and was looking forward to weighing my fish. (i only had around 5 pounds) I found out about this tournament through TFF and the website you had posted. I had brought one of my buddies and it was his first tournament so he was kind of dissapointed. It wasnt a big deal to me. Thankyou for putting these tournaments together.

First of all congrats to John and Craig. Way to go guys.
Scott, another great event. We have been fishing quite a few of your events lately and plan on finishing the grapevine series. We continue to get better. This was our first event to weigh a limit. Even though it was all unders. We had all of our unders by 10:30 am and concentrated on main points in 10ft to 40 ft of water. Each point dropped into a creek channel. There was tons of boatr traffic running through there. We tried jigs, carolina rigs and deep cranks. We managed to cath 2 slot fish. One of which we think may have been a spot. I beleive Mark sent you a PM on how to better ID spots. Had tons of fun you really put on a great event. I fully expect to win one really soon. Thanks

look for a spot on the tongue, and they have a smaller mouth than a black bass. The corner of their mouth (when closed) does not extend behind their eye as it does on black bass. They also have a pretty distinctive pattern, but that's not always the best way to tell.
i still think the best way is fried.

I somehow didn't hear 2 to 2:30 also. I was running late and last boat to sign up and leave. I definitely will double check as I should do anyways! Just was a real BUMMER to be late with three overs and a 3ib spot with a under! Also forgot my net that cost me 9 fish. Guess it just wasn't meant to be. Girlfriend sure had a good time though.

a 3 pound spot? I would have wanted that on official scales... got one last year that was close to a lake record. the spotted bass lake record is only like 3.5 I think? what you catch that thing on? I got mine on a zara spook

I would have also liked to see the exact weight on the spot. Biggest Ive ever seen and have weighed a 2 and half before. Girlfriend caught it on a Texas rig. Also Ive fished most of these tourneys and Scott does a great job. I felt like Forrest Gump when I got to weigh in. STUPID IS IS STUPID DOES! By the way I did get an ear full! First time I get her to fish with me this year and do something smart like that.

I would have been all over that spot. I had a 1 1/2 pound spot weighed in. but it would have been dwarfed to that big of a spot.
yea I bet your girlfriend would have been all in your butt I bet...
okie great meeting you, I plan on donating for the cooperstown trip.

results?
Just wondering when they will be posted.
That day my buddy and I saw a HUGE bobcat in Meadowmere. This thing was as tall as my doberman and was every bit of 50lbs. That was the third bobcat I have seen in the area, but 3 times bigger than any wild cat I have ever seen. He snuck off in the brush before we could get a pic. He did not have a pattern like most bobcats I have seen, but was straight up gold colored. I thought it was a dog at first. My buddy and I realized at the same time that it was a cat, and we just stood there stunned. By the time we got to the camera he was gone. Looked like a freak'n mountain lion...minus the tail.
i still think the best way is fried.
