Fishing Notes |

Today was a practice day for me for this coming weekends FLW BFL tournament. I have never fished as a co-angler or a boater in this tournament, so as a co-angler, I am just trying to locate large gizzard shad in coves and fish many possible patterns, including brush piles, bluff ends, points, secondary points, shallow docks and dock ends with wind. Today the best bite was somewhat shallow in 3′-8′ of water around docks early morning. This afternoons bite was tough with no wind, generation and sunny skies. My fishing buddy, Shane, Tournament Director from Robins Resort worked a top water most of the day with little success. Shane worked the top water as I worked the bottom so to see what the fish wanted. Thanks Shane for investing a day with me of practice, running from deep to shallow and cove to cove. Today we covered about 20 miles of water from the mouth of the Glaize to Alahonna. If you ever need any info about tournaments at Robins or if you are tournament director, and want the best resort on the lake for your tournament, contact Shane at Robins Resort and he will take great care of you. |
