49lbs on Rayburn

49lbs at TTT

49.31, almost a 10lb average per fish.

Someone post some pictures

But there’s no fish in the lake. Place is putting out!

Big fish was over 12

Dang...

Can’t wait for someone to come along and tell us how poor the lake is fishing...

Wow. Congrats.

I have video but it’s not loading sorry. 12.05 big bass

Or the meat hunters are coming out

Awesome bag right there...congrats to the ones that caught them.

Very impressive

30.82 bag just weighed in with big fish 12.52

Wowser!

Confirms I suck at fishing

You think it’s your day then you realize your in second place by 18.49#

24 lb bag with 11.43 big fish

Good gracious.

What an awesome sack!

Good Lord those guys have a huge sack

Wow!!!

How many DD were caught in the tournament?

Well, it's time at rayburn.

Wow! I’m trying to imagine pulling up to weigh in with that bag in the livewell!

Probably wouldn't even be able to get on plane with that limit in my livewell

I think we should go to Choke and catch a bunch of 3 pounders! Hey guides all over Texas, Choke is where it’s at, disregard these huge Rayburn bags!


Congrats to the guys that caught that sack, once in a lifetime accomplishment right there.

That's INSANE!!!!! I can't even imagine what I'd feel like if I were them and had so many GIANTS... how does the livewell hold em?!?!?!

Huge Congrats to them!! Cool markings on that one big bass as well!

You and me both brother...

Hugeness!

Absolutely amazing day! Stringer of a lifetime! Kinda stuff bass fishermen dream about. I might as well plan on fishing Toledo for the next couple of months, maybe I can find a parking spot...lol.

Ole Danny has those Jan/Feb fish figured out on rayburn. I think they win a big tourney in jan/Feb every year

that's right, 30lbs will win most if not all tournaments.

WOW, I mean just Wow...

My hat is off to him. Congrats Sir on the YUGE Win!!

Wow....

I had just read this and today alone Rayburn prob had more "sharelunker" fish weighed in than all of 2019!!

Apparently i dont know what I'm doing.

Man that lake is on fire, 2. Bags over 40 lbs in the last couple weeks plus a 15 lber! That’s insane! No other lake can compare, road trip time!

Wow I’d been happy with half that weight

That’s amazing , what a sack! Well I fished hard today. Had a 5+ and 9 between 2 and 4 lbs . I’m fishing shallow so I guess I need to back out. Water temp 52 where I was at and stained. I fish north.

Awesome bag! Congrats!

6 bites all day. 5 keepers. 2 big ones on one spot, 2 big on another, 7lber and spot on another. That’s heck of a day

To bad they couldn't find a kicker for that limit or they would have broke 50.

Heck of a stringer!!!

RIP Rayburn.

I bet 48 of the Athens entries were all the same TFF'er.

Wowza!! That would be a real good 10 fish bag. Congrats to the fishermen.

So Rayburn is a good lake?...it has big fish and kicks out monster bags in the spring?....who knew...probably a well kept secret in the fishing world till the last 2 weeks and this post.

Holy moly. I'd be happen with a limit but I suck! Awesome!!!
:bow_dow:

Btw - last week I saw a post on social media saying
the dude last week with 40 had the fish in cages. Wonder
What's gonna be said next?

People cant stand guys can really go to a lake and catch fish lol.

please the dude last week caught them fish out right. I have heard people on social media "facebook" ? that. I have done seen where people was saying this bag didn't look like 49lbs.

There was some stupid comments made on FB about the winning weight last week. Jealousy is tough for some to overcome.

By the way I fished last Saturday in the bfl on rayburn & sucked. lol But I am not but hurt that mr.Sharp caught a 40lb sack.

I guess roughly half

I guess those posting bad comments on facebook might put the phone down and spend a little time on the water.

i want some of that stuff,
Glad i’ve already got reservations for March.

Hopefully some fish still left when i get there.

If you're not a local per say and you fish a tournament on Rayburn you're just donating to the cause. Tough to compete

Wow Rayburn kicks out a 50 lbs sack and not a word from JL?
Congrats to the anglers!

49 pounds in his house shoes. awesome!

Nicely done. Congratulations to the anglers!

That’s incredible! Congrats to them!

He’s too busy trying to convince people to go to Choke Canyon for the 3 pound fest.

Or maybe he still cleaning up fillets lol.

Heck of a sack. I feel bad for the guys with the huge sack last week. Who were they again?

My comments were not in reference to JL. Some random people on FB took some shots at the 42lb bag.

What a Sack! Congrats! Any info on how the fish were caught?

Nah he's still trying to figure out how to blame the "fillet every fish they catch LA anglers" for it. Cus he somehow knows without a shadow of a doubt EVERY fish he's ever caught in a tourney or while prefishing has swam off to live a full and healthy life... no delayed mortality there. Or eggs eaten while the male bass was taken away. Nope, never happened. Glad there is an "ignore" button as the junk that gets spewed from that mouth...

There is Video of the weigh-in at this link https://www.texasteamtrail.com/live-weigh-in/

Check around the 50:00 minute mark to see "the sack" of all sacks

Impossible, fake news. Everybody knows dem cajuns done ruined Rayburn.

I better call my Podnahs and tell dem that they done missed a few to turn dem boats around, there is still work to ve done.

There’s no doubt that they had the bag of a lifetime, they also only caught 5 keepers. There were only 8 bags over 20 out of 300+ teams. Flashback a couple of years ago and Champs had 50+ bags over 20lbs in a field of similar size.

Nobody is arguing that Rayburn is still a good lake and has put out some monster bags recently but overall it’s not the same as it was a couple years ago.

The filet stations will be busy there now, I hear they sold of of baggies everywhere from Many to jasper. praying for the fish.

Impressive...……...

Pretty much spot on...Couple crazy bags in the last two weeks, but Rayburn is pretty much like always...16lbs to get paid and the bottom half of the standings 9-10 lbs or less.

Disagree though that it’s not the same as a couple years ago. That Champs event with all the 20lb bags fell on the perfect day in March, and if that same size field fished Rayburn this year on the same kind of day, I really feel it would be just as nasty. Don’t forget that every big tourney so far this year has fell a couple days post cold front..and it’s only February.

Wow.... I was shaking just watching the weigh in. Congrats!!!

Reportedly Big Sam lake level dropped 3 inches when they stepped out of the boat to weigh that monster sack!

I've been on Rayburn since '98 and she keeps getting better. Curious on how the high water last spring (8 months over pool ) impacted growth or Bass natural survival rates?

Unconscionable! Be at the right spot at the right time with LiveScope and you can do it, too....

it was only one big sack last weekend on rayburn & don't forget that it was just one guys fish.

any time the water gets up like it did last year during the spawn is good. look at all the water that you couldn't get to. tuff fishing some what, but look at the results.

Man those fish grow fast in Rayburn! Glad that awesome spawn helped that 12lber and 11lber get a good start this year!

I would doubt that the whole story will be told but a hint would help. Were they throwing a Carolina rig? A lipless????

Wow!Just WOW!

Carolina rigged bubble gum deep diving Zara spook? Lol
Man I don’t know what they caught them on. I fish yesterday and today. Caught fish, 5 1/2 yesterday 6.6 this morning. I just can’t find one of those mystical spots! I love throwing a jig so I’m a happy man right now. Just no 30lb sacks! Lol

was not talking about the big fish that was weighed in, some body said something about high water & the bushes. if they let the water stay high it makes for a better spawn. 10 0r 12 years from now maybe a big fish. smart [censored]. by the way get another power pole on your boat so it will not look stupid.

The high water protects the big fish from being caught, it actually protects a lot of fish from being caught. Fish of all species so that food sources are better, spawns are better, fish health is better, etc.

that's was what I was talking about. you will not see the results for some time, but it will make it better over time.

I thought there was another 12#er weighted in but I was on ttt site and it only shows 1 in results looks like winners got payed for big bass unless I’m reading it wrong

Dead fish penalty possibly? That’s weird, also thought second was 31 lbs.

I saw it also. Posted on there results page and it was deleted

You guys don’t get too excited about rushing to Rayburn. Those spots (maybe brush piles) aren’t easy to locate. And there were 100 boats, over 200 good fisherman in the tournament who had 0. Maybe a bass or 2 but not enough to weigh. 😂

We had 4 for about 10-11 pounds and threw them back because we are not fishing that trail. We missed a lot of fish on deep brushpiles which was surprising but all our fish came out of 25 FOW. We literally missed fish our first and second cast of the morning. Congrats on one helluva bag. VERY impressive.

Wow! Congrats to those anglers for sure. Once in a lifetime tournament bag right there!

we got that in the pond at the farm
