    Barren

    Hey guys just checking to see if any of y’all have been to barren any time lately? Haven’t been since last summer couple times night fishing.

    Fished a tourney today there. Gets muddy up the river, but fish were biting. I struggled to get the hooks stuck in them. Took at least 22 something to win and I left before weigh in was over.

    We haven’t seen that kind of weight in several years either. I saw the fish though and they were fresh.

    You peaked my interest for awhile. That second and third knocked it off though. 22 is a huge bag on barren for past few years, problem is it falls rapidly. I was hoping the lack of fish ability this spring woke it up a bit. I’m hearing good things but this is first 20+ bag I’ve heard of

    Is there still a courtesy dock at the Narrows launch?

    I agree. I figured 16-17 would win with 15-20 boats in the 10, 11, 12lb range. 22 was the outlier. They had two 5lbs and three 4’s. Good bag any way you hook it��

    For sure, that is a heck of a bag. Even better than the local guys put up in the BRFL
