Hoosier Pro Tournament Trail

[Duke]

Fished Hoosier Pro Tournament Trail today and had a tough bite. We caught about 30-35 fish total, but only 3 were legal: 8.88 pounds  . That put us in 6th place out of 31; too bad they only paid back top 4 spots  . Our big fish was 4.04#. All 3 keepers were caught on a tube off a break in a 20 foot section. We pulled up to that spot 3 different times and caught a keeper right away, and that was it! Not even a dink after it. That was the only fish caught on tubes all day: kind of weird. Caught fish on senkos and Zoom flukes all days in the shallows. Most fish were caught shallow, except the keepers. The winners had nearly 16 1/2 pounds, and 2 other teams had over 12 pounds. I know we were 1.5 pounds out of 4th place; figures! I figured going into the tournament with postspawn that it would be tough, and overall, I think it was. Too bad we couldn't finish out our limit, we would have been in great shape  .
