    Barren Today.

    Well, I fished a tournament at Barren today. There were approx. 1 million pleasure boaters there today. Not to mention that every single one of the 1 million ran right by me as I was fishing no more than 20ft away from my boat. Besides that, fishing was good, had bout 17lbs and won the tournament and big fish with a 5.5lb. Overall caught around 15 keepers.

    Drew

    I fished a tournament at Green today. We had 9.22... 1st through 4th were close something like 14.40-13.58 and yes there was a ton of pleasure boaters and judging buy the size of them I would bet that some were overflow traffic scared of the pool level at Cumberland.

    I bet Barren was a nightmare. It is still 8ft low and I would guess that the pleasure boaters were just running around in circles .

    Drew are you only posting when you win tourneys or do you basically win everything?

    Re: Barren Today. (Rippinlip)

    lol no, i fished douglas last weekend and only came in 2nd in my local club tx. ive got a good story from a couple weeks ago. i was fishing a big open on dale, 100 boats or so. we had fished all day and had done decent but i knew we needed to cull with a 3-4lber to win it so we ran up the obey for the last hour to flip up a big one. so were sittin there in some bushes flippin when i hear a boat running close to us and a "hey!". i turn my head to see two young women showing us thier . first time ive been flashed on the water. prob a good thing though, if i saw that too much, id never catch a fish. but, the tournament went decent i guess, lost by 3lbs, still came in 4th and got $900. lost the fish we needed to win 3 times so im still a little upset over that.

    Re: Barren Today. (flippindrew)

    Drew it happens to me everytime I am on the water. Really getting to be a nuisance though. Hard to fish tourneys with all that going on everywhere I go. That is why I have done so poorly this year......yeah that's it.......

    Thank you John for setting yourself up like this.....you had to know I would jump on this so............

    Dear John

    The only "man nipples" I have ever seen on the water when somebody was not swimming would be the day I helped pull sasquatch off the mud flat in Skaggs Creek. Thank goodness for tighty whities or I would be at Eastern State Hospital right now.

    Thanks for your imput though Johnny.
