Four Gators have made it to the Freezer the last 2 days (took today off :))...they fell for the Pink and Orange (3) and Plain White 2.8 inch Keitechs. Each has been larger than the last, started off with an 18, then 19, then a 20, and ended today with a 22....hope this is a good OMEN for the year.
I'M HAVING FUN!:):):)lol
We are hoping for both good weather and a good turn out...Quote:

As you all know, fish bite/eat in bad weather and it doesn't bother me...3 more Gators today, two 17's and another 20 , they all hit the Chartreuse fade.
Fished about 40 minutes after work in a down-pour...soaked to the bone and loved every minute. Slack water was key!
Freezer is filling already....put rain suit in car as soon as I got home!
GOOD FISHING!:)
Can't wait for the CJ tourneys. Easytobeme03 I see you guys changed up the format. Breaking the tournaments into different days. Hopefully we can keep increasing the number of participants. I tell ya you and Jamie do a great job. Keep it up and thanks for all your hard work putting on both a spring and fall tournament.
Dang Brent that open water sure looks nice. I may have to take some time this weekend and head up your way. Thanks for posting.
Brent you think the jigs tipped with the power bait nuggets added a little more incentive. How were they moving. They give ya a good little workout or did they come in like a soaked towel.
Gators are hitting good, they are cold water fish....open water tends to excite them. Damn water is cold...but I have a pretty good pace on the Keitech's. Fish in this type of water take on a whole new personality.Quote:

I have plenty of faith...I was out catching a few weeks ago when we had the break in ice at EF. We caught plenty of crappie and all while swimming jigs with ice chunks floating all around us.Quote:

That packing the rain suit AFTER you get soaked on a trip seems like something I'd do. I like fishing crappy weather too, you usually have the place to yourself.
WTG on the eyes.
