Dad and I fished the team trail out of Dayton. We practiced Thursday and Friday only catching 5 keepers total with several shorts on traps, dropshots, and shad raps. We were boat number 204 and knew there was no chance at starting in our main area. When we got into the creek we was fishing we just fell in line. I caught our best fish of the day (3.5) in the first 25 minutes on a shakey head off a secondary point right after a guy fished it with a trap. The rest of the day was tough especially after 12 when the wind got up. We fished around boats all day and only seen one other catch a keeper. We ended up catching 6 total keepers and 9 shorts on traps. We did have a 5-6 lber throw a 3/4 oz trap near the boat that would've put us up there in the standings but that's how its goes sometimes. We ended up weighing 14.29 for 32nd place. The guys that won had 30 lbs emoWorthy I always enjoy getting a chance to come down to fish the chick its a lot different than Norris or Cherokee where I have watch the graph all day and fish 30-50 fow. emoAngler
