Carolina rigging a small suspending Jerkbait with a 1oz weight on points. I overheard the winners talking about it at weigh-in just now.

Man. I didn’t have a fish till 1pm. Fished wacky rigs and shaky heads on the bridges. About 7 hours too late.

Chris and I were culling by 7 just couldn’t manage that big bite

Wind made it hard to fish our area thoroughly

Also had a dead one, which sucks, the other two were rowdy so maybe tongue hooked.

This one aggravates me. Caught some nice ones 2 weeks ago. Guess we had 30 fish for 6 1/2 today.

Congrats to Tyler and Tanner. They making one helluva name for themselves. They had a 2nd in BC last year, I believe. Tyler and Justin also finished second a few weeks ago at CC and won $10K. Tyler Holmes is one helluva stick and he’s only about 26. Y’all tourney guys got lots of tough years ahead of y’all with this guy around.

Maybe he can use this money to buy an axel and maybe even a trip to a barber shop. I believe there might be a vagrant living in that shabby forest hanging off of his face.

I’m just glad to know the living legend called Tyler! Justin needs to learn some lessons from his girlfriend!

Pulled up to a point at noon throwing a football jig and had the first fish spit it that we think was at least 7 lbs. Caught two others soon after weighing 6 & 4 lbs. rotating jig colors. Sick that we could have possibly won this thing.

Often considered trying it. Think I might give it a go next time out.

It also works good with any floating crankbait just have to adjust the weight according the size of the bait. Use to do it where there is current and it keeps it "in the zone" without all the casting and cranking.

You can turn a carolina floater around and put it in front of a fuke and have the same presentation with a soft bait. I have more confidence this way myself

Why in the world would you "win a tournament" with a technique and never even try it again? That's insane! Of course I use tactics that have worked time and time again, and then don't...over and over again. That's also insane!

Carolina rigged a white/red bobber with a 3/0 hook and caught 25. Three best went 19 but our livewells didn’t work so we threw them back. Sucks, we could have won it
