Maybe someone can poke WSD to post some pics. Poke poke.

WSD-poke poke!

I only have a few pics of some fish we caught. We had a great time down at Wister. Have been there 3 times so far and this was by far the funnest time I have had. We never found a ton of fish but most of the fish we caught were good fish. We did take Big Fish with a 2.42 that Neil landed and it turns out that is his biggest crappie ever. You should of seen him, he was jumping around and smiling and immediately went to his phone to share the news with his wife. He wore a smile the rest of the day and I am sure went to bed smiling. That is one of the reasons I do this. For the friendships, memories and fun. I learned a lot on this trip from WSD and Odie on marking and fishing the stumps. Marked over 300 items on this trip. I can see now with lakes like this, why guys have 10000 way points. We caught fish double dipping the stumps in 7-11' of water. Never caught more then a couple fish at one spot. I tried all sorts of colors and sizes of baits and we had the best luck over 3 days with Franks (G-Daddy) Mo Magic 3" baits in Blue Chip on a Timmy Tom weedless 1/8 head and SlabSlobber. Want to say a big THANKS to the guys at the Fishermans Net for hosting the tourney for us. They opened early, cooked up a good breakfast and then had hot food after tourney for the anglers to enjoy. You dont find businesses that will do that very often. If you are in the area, stop in and say hi. Thanks to everyone who put on tourneys this year and to all those who came out and fished them and made it fun! I look forward to the next trail when it gets put together.

Whew-wee that's a pig right there!

We forgot to give the 2 Huckabee rods, donated by Ken Roberson, away at the Classic. Neil Molina won the first rod as he caught the biggest fish while he was fishing with a Meatdragger rod. I gave Ken all the rest of the names and he drew a name out of the hat and Gaston Hall won. If you 2 guys will contact Ken at 918 629-9715 to make arrangements to get your rods. Thanks again Ken for your great support.
