<br /> we fished our first club tx out of shellmound saturday.we started out fishing a ditch on a flat were i had caught a few a couple of weeks ago.The bite was real slow for us starting out and we never got a bite until the sun came out,but once the sun got up above the mountain the bite started picking up.We caught our first 2 keepers out of the ditch,along with a few slicks,on jerkbaits. but the wind picked up alittle and the bite slowed so we moved to another ditch that ran through a flat.The bite was slow there also til the wind stopped blowing then i hooked up with our 3rd keeper on a chrome black xr50, yo yoing it in the ditch,then we caught 5 more keepers and a few slicks along the ditch on jerkbaits.Then the clouds rolled in and we never got another bite after that.All our fish came on jerkbaits except 1 that came on xr50.The water temp was around 50.<br /> I want to say congrats to Wes (catch1) and his partner,Kirk Hudson,on taking 1st place with a 25lb bag and big fish.
