Well fished my first ever CBA with Chris Batson, a fellow Marine. Go Team Marine ooohrah! Lol. Anyways, right off the bat started having problems. Engine cranked fine and was idling waiting for blast off then they told us to turn off our engines to listen to instructions. Well went to start the engine and my cranking battery was dead. Lost my early blast off position but I was able to get it jumped before everyone was out of the park. Started upriver at Eldridge where I pulled in a couple decent keepers. Started hitting spots down river and was able to get 5 bites all day luckily they were all keepers. Caught on traps and a couple on the ten rig in 2-12 fow. Came in with 15.18 lbs. A small bag but seemed to be the norm for the day. Wish I was fishing this one for points because I think we would have gotten some good points. I look forward to fishing the rest for points with Harvick2938.
