Revised with pics....

Con Club Tournament Weekend!

FRIDAY-Day 1

Had a double boat charter in the morning, and planned to tournament fish the pm.  Morning
was pretty rough to start...picked away at the walleye.   Of course, we take 1 pushing 10lbs
and another pushing 8lbs.  Figure our best 3 would have been low 20lbs.   Finish out the
charter, and get the team to head back out and we only do 3 small fish.....for a meager 9lbs.  
Well, that plan sure backfired !   So we're sitting in 92nd spot out of 103 boats after day one. 
Yikes!

Best today was again the Mojo DW spoon off the deep riggers, and a blue/silver hatchet blade
harness off the big slides at 165.   Fished 80-90 fow off Van Buren Point.

Couple of pics from the morning.....

                            

                            

Saturday-Day 2
Beautiful lake today...could run a full spread.    Based on reports we got, bigger fish seemed to
be out deeper...and we needed help....so we pretty much fish 100-115 fow today.  Boxed 8; best
3 were just over 20lbs.  Better, but not enough.  Move up to 83rd.

Best today was the small slide, 220 back off the boards with a harness.   10 color was dead.
Great screens all day.


Sunday-Day 3
Forecast last night had chance of t-storms, so we decided to try right out in front.  Hit 85 foot
and started fishing (even though it turned out to be beautiful).   Had 3 fish on before we got
all the rods in.   Boxed 3 man limit in just under 4 hrs.   Got just over 18lbs, but again not
the big guys we needed.  Moved up to 65th.

Board lines took 5 fish today, running a chicken wing hatchet blade.   Also the 165 slide with
a ring was good with the blue harness; and we took a few fish on a blue Zman chatterstick
on the 165 slide with no ring.  Every rod took at least 1 fish.


Overall...had a blast...just never found the big guys we needed.   We still average over 5lbs
for our 9 fish.   Winning team was over a 7lb average!!
