What bait tanks are some of you guys using and which one is the top of the line.

Congrats on the first Hybrid on the board Martin, cant believe we have an Aggie showing us the way, lol. Just kidding! Your fish may only be 20" but he is a fattie, gotta love Lake Palestine healthy Hybrids. I have a feeling you will be the man to watch in our fun little contest, of course the regulars can never be left out especially Mike and Marty, those guys can flat out catch some fish.


Big Fish: ATM97 20" hybrid 9/10/11 8am on live bait

Been out three times since Saturday morning, the sandbass have been easy with lots of magnums. Hybrids on the other hand have been a little tough for me but I did manage one the morning.

Nice fish guys. Looks like they been eating some shad cause they aren't skinny!

Hybrids have been hard to find lately, hopefully this cooler weather will liven things up. So far we only have two fish on the board.

ATM97 20.000 9/10/11 8:00am on live bait

Went out this AM. Caught (2) +/- 22". Forgot the camera.
Saw a bald eagle & plenty of southward bound butterflys.

Shame we don't do this for sandbass, anyway caught 2 Hybrids today. One is out there still swimming around with a Fly's by night fly and Johnson spoon in its mouth, got it to the boat and my line broke where the fly was tied. Maybe it was the 30 or so sandbass before I hooked the Hybrid had something to do with that, anyway my bad and will say no more on it. Here's the one I did get in the boat.

Same recipe this morning as yesterday morning, same results almost. Only thing differant was when the sandbass came up schooling they stayed up alot longer each time.

Where's Mo?

Where do you get the kahuna spoons. Thanks

www.moestackleshop.com for the kahuna spoons

If you dont have any sassy shad, the SD color 4" sassy on 3/4 oz jig head have been working well for big sandies and black bass also.

Tournament partner and I hit the Hybrids hard last year for the first time and had a blast at Palestine! We will have to try and remember to take some pictures with measurements.

and HeadRtails that is one heck of a picture in your signature!!!!

You know you just can't go wrong with them LSU Tigers! You guys catch some Hybrids, take a sec. and get a pic and post it! We need some on here, they have been tough for me so far, plenty of sandbass and blackbass but Hybrids are just about MIA. Hopeing things pick-up, im sure they will.
