Havent had much time to get on lately so this isnt new news but for those of you wanting to know about Patoka here are a few results. Terry and Doug Tucker won the first day with 16.65lbs. Rob Miller and Gary Sitzes won on day two with 19.51lbs. And on day three Ben Nielsen and I won with 19.77lbs. All the results are up on the NBAA website. There will also be updates on the winning patterns, lures, etc in a few days. Just a little heads up, you can throw Poor Boys Erie Darters anywhere and catch big fish.
When you are in any contest you should work as if there whereto the very last minute a chance to loose it.

Congrats on the win. Can't wait to hear what pattern you guys had going (depth, lure choice, location, color etc,..) because it was a tough bite for me and my partner.

We finished 43rd on day two and bailed out for the last one because of the storms rolling in. We fished the river and it seemed you literally had to hit the fish on the head to get them to bite. Our fish including practice came out of 2 ft of water or less very tight on cover.

Cant wait to hear the details as well!  We had a good flipping bite backs of pockets at the mouth of Painters Creek on Thursday.  But with the wind those pockets got muddied up on Friday.  We spinnerbaited two fish on Friday for 30th and didnt weigh in our 1 fish on Saturday.  Its a fun fishery as the fish we did catch were good ones.  But they were few and far between. 

What did you different Don because both you and Ben struggled Thursday?

LGMOUTH... shouldn't you be throwing Bass Stopper??

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

They pulled out a map and said lets fish over here. Then they caught fish.
At least that is what he told me. ;)
Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

Thats it in a nutshell. We basically switched from fishing the wood to fishing the weeds and points. Guess I should of thought of that earlier. The full write up is on the NBAA website now. http://www.nbaa-bass.com/pages/news/patoka_2010_followup.php
