I haven't been on much, and I havent' been able to fish much, but when I do - sometimes I get lucky. These were both caught on jigs yesterday at an undisclosed location on an undisclosed jig (sorry, I can't give out the particulars yet until after a few more tournaments). I caught the bass at 1pm (103* air temp, 90* water temp), the hybrid came out about 20 minutes later. I was breaking in a new Kistler Zbone 7'3" MH rod, the new 2011 Shimano Chronarch 200e7, and some new line I've been trying, McCoy Fluorocarbon 12# test. I'll put up pictures of the jig at the end of August...

Man I wish I would have seen this earlier! Caught a dandy smally with just a 1/24oz orange jig and a nightcrawler bottom bouncing. :x

I need to go fishing!

Holy Cow! It took me forever to gather the correct names and number of entries. I have not visited this topic in awhile, I can not believe the amount of entries from a few of you. AWESEOME! =D>

The purpose of these challenges is to get people to try new and different techniques, even ones you hate. I hope a few of you learned something from it, I know I have.

LSWOODY did come out on top through the hat program, so he was declared the winner!

Good job lswoody! =D>
