6/4/11 - Avid Anglers Tournament @ South Watuppa - Fall River
This was the 1st of back to back tournaments at this swill hole of a pond, this one as a co-angler. Wind was brutal all day. Water is like chocolate milk, monster rocks everywhere. Tough day overall, too much weight and you were stuck in the rocks every time, so lightweight in the wind with barely any feel for the bottom. The boater I fished with hit a hot spot and picked-up a small limit by 9:30am, and his 3.16lb lunker Largemouth by 11am. I lost a keeper smallie early, had another good bite come unbuttoned later on. Tried a crankbait for a while and got a White Perch, 2 Yellow Perch, a Bluegill, and a 6" Largemouth. Finally got my only keeper fish of the day at about 1:30pm on a shakeyhead. 12" 1lb 1oz gave me 13th place out of 15 anglers, and left me not terribly excited for Sundays Tourney
