 All right guys tournament time. It's time to get it started catch some big fish today I'm excited for it's been a minute since we fished like a full day tournament So we're gonna make it happen today. We actually practice zero for this having fish on this river in four months We're gonna get it today. Let's make it happen. We're gonna get to work guys. I'm gonna start off with the chatter Don't show you guys what I'm throwing on the kicking combo black and blue chatter dunk I think that's gonna be the moneymaker to catch a big one here really I'm gonna try this for a little bit And I'm also gonna throw around a buzz bait for a little bit this morning And then if I need to slow down and throw like a little Texas rig, that's what I'll do But Katie in the back. So I'm gonna be throwing that around so We're gonna get to moving see if we can go ahead and get some fishing box water is a little higher than I thought it was gonna be It's a tiny bit higher Water's stained too All right, I can't do that. He's only you did again. He took my tail. That's a big okay. I need that I need that Oh, it's a 12 pounder You want to trade Look at that dude. Look how you ate that sucker too. That's exactly how you want it He ate it way off the bank too. That's about two pounder That's the way to start it It's a good fish to start it off on we want we want this to be our smallest one today But to start it off with a two pounder. Did he eat that sucker? He won't come off That's a good one right there boys. I got to start somewhere Let's keep it rolling. He goes on the small side. It's we about to catch some five pounders. Let's go, baby. There you go, Heather Let's get it there. You got to start right? That's a good little start right there. I don't mind that Yeah, he literally ate it so far off and it's starting to make me question everything I know there's another one here though While I was reeling it slow and he just loaded up on it He ate that sucker too. That's a good sign I mean he didn't I can barely get him off the dang hook. He ate it so good I skipped and it hooked right on something and it felt like he just ate it Yeah, they're like eating it at the boat for some reason That one was like damn you're at the bus. The only reason he didn't eat it all the way So we just got done with the first hour of the tournament. We've got one fish right now Had a handful of bites nothing nothing much though. There's one other boat in this lake with us and I don't think they've had any bites or fish. So I'm probably going to get out of here But there's one little spot towards the mouth of this place I want to hit and um, we're going to throw some cast over there to see if we catch a fish If not, we'll we'll go hit another spot And I don't know if I said it at the beginning, but there's like 80. I believe there's 80 boats 79 79 boats 78 78 boats Um in the tournament. So that's awesome that there's a big turnout But uh, we're just going to put our heads down and keep on casting I'm going to throw that chatter donk a lot just because that one that ate it. I mean, he choked it It was a good fish too. It was a solid two So if we can keep that momentum up, let's keep catching some fish I think we'll be good. It's just we're not getting many bites back here. So we'll move soon Let's make it an easy one right here A little tongue First fish for me How you doing Yeah, you got a few bites here and there Yeah, trying to Do you? Thank you, man. I appreciate that Yeah, you guys catching me this morning. It's been slow, hasn't it? Oh, I just had one right there I wasn't paying attention though Good luck to you guys Oh, there he is Oh, he came off. There ain't no way He thought the mess out of it That was him I stuck him He was right there Yeah, I flipped in there and all I felt was one hard thump Yeah, I stuck him See he That was my opportunity there. He missed that chatter bait And he's not eating it right That's a good one. Good one Biggin. I mean big big big big He loaded up on that thing like a dang cod pound That's crazy to me. Gosh, he felt dang big, dude The way he ate it, just like a big one Old pickerel Trick me He ate it just like a dang four pounder. Gosh, I thought I had him Yeah, that'd be good. I forgot we had this in there Oh, I got one. I got one Let's keep her Quick Thank you That's a fat one. Look at that one That was a good one. Good job, man He barely had it too. My other one ate it really good. That's a fat guy Nice Fish number two, baby You work it up somewhere A little smaller than the first one There he is No way Took my pincher He didn't I didn't stick him at all. He should eat it right here. It's a good bass Get up here boy Yeah, I think he's 12. I don't want him, but Hey He measures we keep Right on 12. Yeah, we'll get rid of him, but we'll put him in the box Fish number three I'm actually going to switch up the small side and put them over here That's not the size we want, but it's something Three fish, baby Get it. Hey, keep that pressure. You got him? Is it a keeper? Oh, it's not a man Probably won't get me here Yeah I think it might be 11 Nice. I got one Get off my toes, dog. He's 11 Well Good try There's gonna be one on this tree Dude, he had me instantly Look took my curl There'd be more than one on this tree, I think I don't know if he'll keep Oh, yeah, he would have God, that's fine. He's small That was my first cast on this dang thing. I already threw a crawl up there He didn't eat it all the way. Yeah, he was 12 inches. He's bigger than that smallest one we got in there Just didn't have it all the way So for the most part today, I've been throwing around, you know, this chatter bait It's covering a lot of water getting that reaction bite You know, Katie's been throwing that crawl this whole time for the most part and She hasn't been getting any bites and I'll pick up that crawl and throw it here and there and I've got a few bites But nothing nothing much It's like I've had more bites on this moving bait What I'm thinking of these fish are actually really slow And when this thing comes vibrating past her face, I feel like they're just reacting to it So that's the biggest thing just Creating a reaction with this bait. I'm gonna throw a crankbait around a good bit here soon But we're gonna we're gonna switch up in a moment. I don't think these bass are in these lakes We need to be out on the main river. I don't know if there'd be any here, but it's worth Oh my gosh, I couldn't No, I don't have them. That was a monster I mean just Tamered that thing There he is You have fish number four boys She ain't much but she fish number four Let's go. Oh, that's a giant mud That's some freaking mammoth. What are we looking for? Pigeon if it is it's huge. Oh, no. What's that? Thank you. Oh, he might be super I'm pretty dang sure that's a 12 inch or two New we just pulled up to the dang ramp. Let's measure him Gosh, it's gonna be close bro. I don't think she's 12 though She's not 12. She's 11. She's 12, baby. Yes I mean, she ain't big but that's number five, baby. I mean something the ramp is literally right there. These boys just fish this bank Second cast and no catch on her. Let's get it I mean, she ain't much but that's something to put five together. We still can get another bite. We got 10 minutes We got three squeaky squeaks It's not really ideal with what we want, but we've had fun today. It's been a grinder We got five. All right guys, so we are headed in now. We don't have what we would want. I mean We don't have a bag whatsoever, but we got five fish. We ended up getting that last keeper in the last few minutes It was a tough day, man. It was a grind I mean, we just we had so many spots to try a lot of main river stuff tried a lot in the lakes and the creeks It was just a tough day overall, but we still have fun. You know, we caught some fish We got five they don't weigh much But we're gonna go weigh them in anyways and then I believe there's just gonna be some Supporters of the channel up there. So we'll talk to them for a bit and hang out maybe get a little bit of dinner And I still have a good time. So let's go ahead and I'll see you guys are waiting All right guys time to get these fish There's that was our first one today on that chatter bait. Not a bad fish And then we got the old tiny ones in this line. These are little tiny squeakers all 12 inches But we still got a limit That's what matters Like I said guys, there's not much to these fish, but I'm just happy that we ended up getting five It was a tough day, you know, we put it all out there. It was hot. We're out there for like nine hours But we stuck it through and ended up getting five today. So let's go ahead and go weigh and see what we got I think we got around probably just six and a half seven pounds nothing much But I want to say 14 is leading But it could update.
