 All right everybody, tournament number three of the year. You know, we got the top five at the last two and today we're going out to win it. I'm actually with my boy, Alan Bob. It's good. Been a minute since we had Alan Bob on the channel. We came out last night, did a little bit of practice and a little bit of pre-fishing, fished a bunch of new water and we're ready to smack them today. We got a good game plan. We're pretty much going to be throwing frogs and chatterbaits like the whole day. So that's the plan. Yeah, we're going to go for big ones, cover a lot of water. The trolling motor was working yesterday, but I just put it in the water, it's not working again. I think it's some internal issue with the trolling motor because we can't figure it out.

Yeah, let's go ahead and get this done. Let's do it boy. You got one already? We are getting this tournament started. I'm actually going to be fishing with a frog pretty much this whole time. I got this paired up and we're kicking their best TV-X-Lews combo. If you guys want to check them out, you're only available on my website, kickingtheirbest.com. I'll put the link up on the screen and have it down below. Yeah, that's what we're going to be doing. I'm pretty much going to be throwing a frog the whole time. Alan Bob's starting with the chatter bait and we're just going to try to go for some big fish today. We're not going to really pick up any slow-moving baits. I think I'm just going to fish with the frog the whole time. Alan, where are you at buddy? Oh, I got a big one. I got a big one. How'd he come on? I was a three pounder. Literally, dude, I stuck him like he didn't move at all. Like that was a big one. I thought he was over four, but I saw him at the end there. He was about three, like a mid to high two, the three pounder. Well, guys, that was our first bite. I mean, I didn't, I don't think I did anything wrong there. My hook set him good. I kept the pressure. I didn't have any slack in my line. He just straight up pulled off. Happens with the frog every once in a while. Can't let that bring us down. Let's just be glad that we got a bite on it and see if we can duplicate it. The river is a little higher today too, guys. It's a little higher. It's an outgoing tide, which is awesome, but it is a little higher. So I think the fishing is just going to get better as the time goes on. This water starts to lower a little bit more. Let's fish it kind of suck up against this cover a little better. That fish was up there Alan. Down this bank and if we don't get many bites, I'm going to assume because the water's a little high. And I say we go in that pocket. Really up up there. So we're up there one more time. If he doesn't hit it, pick up that worm dude. Want to go? There you go, it's coming. Yeah, it's just going to get, this bite's just going to get better. Well y'all, we got our first fish. I'm not even kidding. Two pops after my GoPro died, he ate it. Not a big one. It's a 12 incher, but he's definitely a start. Got to start somewhere in these tournaments. We're definitely going to call him out by the end of this. I just can't believe the timing on that. GoPro dies and then he eats it. Maybe that's the problem this whole time. Maybe we got to shut off the GoPro. The whole day guys, we'll just turn on the GoPro when I get the bite. This bank's going to be firing. Throw in there. I think this, that was a garb wasn't it? I think this bank's going to be hot. We're going to catch a couple here bro. This is capitalized. All right, let's get a couple right here, buddy. That's a good one dude. That's a monster, Alan. Okay, net him. Yes! He came off in the freaking net dude. That's like a four pounder. My gosh. Alan, let's do it baby. That's all we needed. Dude, that, yeah, when I saw him, I was like, yeah, that's him dude. I couldn't believe it. Hey, we had a tough start guys, but hey, we stuck, we stayed positive. It was kind of hard cause we had so much stupid stuff going on guys. Not only that, but the trolling motor's just aggravating. And it actually, I made that cast two different times and had that big one bite. Alan, we just need, we need four or two pounders bro. And we'll be good, but I think we can get another big one. Let's blow this out of the water dude. Let's not, let's not leave anybody room. Let's get freaking three or four of those up there. I was telling Alan a story when we were coming back in here, I told him, I was like, dude, you know, I came in here and my buddy Connor one day and we caught three, four pounders. And then it happened. This was not a part of our game plan too. We didn't plan any coming in the spot. It wasn't even like a plan, but the water was too high on the main river. We made an adjustment and man, I don't know, that was big. The fish is just going to get better on the main river as the hours go by too. So that's exactly what we needed. Full update, we got two fish in the box, one freaking good one. And so I'm so happy that that guys, cause usually towards the end of the tournament, you're looking for one like that. Just to know that we got that, we just got to sit here and focus up and put some good two pounders in the boat. And I think we'll be good unless somebody just smokes them. But I told Alan, I said, let's get two more of that big, that would be, that would be a bag. And we, in practice, we had and saw the fish that would create a bag like that. So we're just gonna put our heads down right here, hit some main river stuff in these last two hours of the tournament and see what we can do. It's coming, we're coming off on it. I have a feeling you're gonna get on something. Yeah, super shallow, but that was a big mud, big mud. Oh my gosh, yeah. I don't think he's on either. That was actually a good one, it was like a two. I saw his body. Oh, that sucks. Yeah, the duty, that spot looks so good. He wrapped me around that tree, dang it. He had it too, it just happened to, he pulled me under the tree. Yeah, he's not on there. That was not a small fish. I can't believe he didn't have it. That's crazy. The main riverbites picking up though. Oh, did you see that? Bro, as a dangle, he hit it. You can't tell me he ain't, you're not gonna come back and eat it? What? That was crazy, here we go, here we go. Oh, that's just unfortunate. I just messed up my cast. That was crazy. He came back for it. Guys, this is the spot that Alan Bob caught. One that was like almost three last night. See if Alan Bob can do it while we're putting this fish away. Fish number three, guys. Technically two, I'm not really counting that other one, but he has a fish. Put him on the small side. We've got some big boys to catch. All right, I can't count. Hey, you caught it right in time for the GoPro. All right, we're on a new spot. Alan Bob trying to take me out with this chatter, no? But we had some good bites down this bank. We didn't have a ton of big ones, but who knows, there could be some bigger ones pushed up because we've been catching smaller ones. We were catching bigger ones yesterday. I think too, man, we might need to save a couple minutes and go back in that spot where I caught the four pounder and just hit that edge and hit that one cast I was talking about. Could be worth it. Catching a four pounder right here. He's a keeper, fourth fish. Hey, man, I did say four pounder. He ain't a four pounder. He's a fishy. He's a fat one too. You want to put him in the box guys, but we're gonna do it. We're usually catching these good, like pound and a half to two and a half pound fish. Pretty good, but since we got that big one, it's been hard. I don't know why. If we can just get some good two pounders here towards the end, I mean, we'll be sitting good. We got plenty of time though. We got an hour. We got one hour to fish our guts out and hope that we can salvage this wind. We got a fish that would carry us. We just need some good ones. You got four fish, two of them in there, really small. One's like a pound and a half and one's like, I wanna say he's four. I'd have to get a little better look at him, but if he is and he's a high three, you want to go down? Hit that first thing we ate yesterday. All right, y'all, we're gonna move spots and hit this spot that we found yesterday and cover a little bit of water here around that side. Just can't believe it. This side, this side, this side, this side. That's what we wanted. It was coming out of my mouth. I was like, I can't believe. And then, can't believe we haven't got a bush. Hey, number five on. Yep, we got a limit. Here we go, guys. Not a big one. I thought it was a little bigger, but that's a freaking solid one right there. Can't complain with that. I'm gonna put him on the big side. We got five fish. Just can't keep our heads high, guys. One thing that I mean, I don't have been talking about is we just don't see as much activity as we saw yesterday. Like, we saw, I mean, how many hundreds of go around? Like, hundreds of go around. We don't really see them today. I mean, we've seen a few here and there. We actually just saw a couple and then we got a bite. So, yeah, it's been crazy. Maybe we're getting to the better spot. I don't think these fish are as active as they were. Yeah. I think we can still get the bites, so let's put our heads down. You know, as I might be playing our favor, people might struggle a little harder. Should be one right here. Shit, bro, we gave it a roll, man. We just got back to the ramp. Nobody's really back yet. I don't know if people were fishing until nine today or 845. It's usually 845, but there's only one boat that's back here. So, I'm a little confused, but man, we fished hard. I don't know what we're gonna end up getting. I definitely think we got another top five, possibly a top three. I don't know if we won it. We had the opportunity, guys. Like, we have a big fish, you know, and we just couldn't fill the big fish with the two pounders. The other two tournaments I fished, I could get the two pounders, but I couldn't get the big fish. Man, we're living and learning, and we're gonna see. Maybe people struggle today, so I'll catch you guys at the weigh-in. It's these three small ones, man. What's that give it? No one, Alan. Big fish, 377. New big fish later, and it's all the way. That's a new leader, right there in the middle of here.
