Finally won one!!
Well we had our last tournament for the year on Sunday and I was able to pull off the win. After a very hard pre-fish, I only caught 2 keepers and missed one on a frog, I thought I was in a whirl of hurt. Well, put together a good plan the night before (get drunk) and pray for the best! After 4 hours of sleep and still feeling it I moved forward and went to my "spot" and found a toad!! I couldn't fish for 5 minutes. Kept working at it and found another on top water and thought, not bad. Well I ended up working the area with no luck and thought about the fish that I missed. Thought what the heck and went up there (5 minute boat ride up a river at 45 mph - fun!! -) and first cast wacky style put the fish in the boat!! Limit!! (we only have a 3 fish limit in our club). Well this was about 10:30 am and had till 3:00... I was dragging a$$ at this time. So, I just sat down and drove around. Made a few casts here and there and ended up culling 2 more times!!
Well, I weigh in and have 7.92lbs and big fish at 4.29. Little did I know I also jumped 2 spots and won our AOY!!!!!! The guy leading it zeroed!! It was a hard day. Oh and I also won big bass for the year. Not a bad way to end the year. Here is my little fish....

What is the name of your club, MIBasser, if you don't mind me asking? I'm very interested in your 3-bass limit thing. Especially since I've never boated 5 keepers in one day before. (Well, not since they changed the minimum from 12 to 15 inches at least.)

Thanks guys. It was a hard day to say the least.
Nofear, our club is the Shiawassee Bass Anglers out of Owosso (where the two killings were a couple weeks ago). It's a small (10 person) club that is pretty close. We have some guys that are really good, then we have some that are there to fish and if they catch one then great. That's the main reason for the 3 fish limit, plus it can be hard to keep them alive all day long. Quote:

No, it isn't.
Brian, Kev, and another guy fished Wixom all day on Saturday and caught 3 fish total! You did great up there!
