Well I had grand plans to finally be able to fish an event with my new to me Skeeter but Saturday morning was one those mornings that nothing went according to plan. I pulled into the ramp as the first wave was leaving :o Rules are rules and as they say ---"you snooze you lose" emoBang . I was very aggravated with myself but decided to launch and fish for fun. I made the long run all the way up to Soddy Creek and then on up to Sale Creek. I fish that area the whole day and managed to boat only four bass. Water temps were middle 70s and clarity was very good. I fished areas out of the wind and caught all the fish on green pumpkin finesse worms. All were small emoBang emoBang . Then I had the long run back to the Dam and as you all know the lake was not nice emoEnforce . I'm real happy with the Skeeter, it handled the water as well or better than any bass boat I've been in. Was able to talk to some of you after the weigh in and it was nice to see you all. Glad the CFF has had a good year and I hope to fish future events.
