Thank you for the sponsorship!! Y’all better be glad I ain’t in the championship with all these SMH worms I got !!!!

Hey all wanted to share yesterday's tournament on Falls Lake. I found a magical bank line not too far from launch in a cove that produced 13+ fish for me to secure a 2nd place finish.

NC got hit with a cold front late Thursday into Friday with rain lingering mid Saturday into tournament, full moon, winds in the 8-9 with 15-20mph gust. Water temp 63 (was 68 on Tuesday)

In my area for practice I found a finesse shakey head bite dirt shallow , and spinner bait bite mid depth ~9ft. With the cold front I adjusted everything I found atleast 3 ft from where I practiced. I noticed fish I saw deep on my sonar tuesday in main channel where not there not even bait on side scan so I made a detour to check the nearest pocket. 1st and 3rd cast I caught some bass so I decided to slowly and methodically throw that shakey head, each cast not overlapping the last cast's line. Once I did one pass I go back up the bank with a wacky rig and cleaned up any areas I felt I missed on the initial pass. I found many buck males and some 12-15.75 inch buck males 1 ready to spawn female 18 incher and an active spawning bass couldn't tell if male or female but had roughed up bloody tail.

Hope this helps anyone fishing a cold front tourny. Surprising enough up the lake at holly point campground area the angler who won had a very similar occurrence where he had all his winning fish on one bank in one cove that he combed through all morning.

Hey SUFam! B is live NOW! See you all in there!

Hey y’all I forgot I’m on central time this week. Can yall give me until 6 est time? It’s completely oversight on my end.

Club Tournament At a mountain lake I can prefish Tuesday that would be 4 days before or Friday 1 day before ? What one do you pick and why ?

Do you guys have flooded lakes? I’ll share with you what I found this week at smith lake.

This is the areas I’m targeting right now. What’s your best spots look like?

I went practicing for a club tournament this weekend. We're fishing a clear lake which isn't too common in Texas. Given the time of yr and water temps, my mindset was to fish shallow while looking for beds. I went a few hours with no bites. While scanning a pocket I noticed a lot of bait. Dropped the trolling motor and saw that the fish were on bait and got my 1st clue. I then went to other pockets and ran that pattern.... I've definitely got a game plan going into Saturday.
