<br /> Friday night Ronnie and I fished the classic at Sullivans and ran all the way to the dam and fished our way back down. We had had 5 keepers but 1 died and we couldn&#39;t get the fifth 1 back in the livewell. We fished our tails off and caught a lot of shorts. We finished 4th or 5th with 11.66 with 4 fish. 15lbs won 1st and 14lbs was 2nd as far as the money winners. The Thornberry&#39;s got BF with a 5&#43; but was unable to get a limit as well. Bruce Day had a 5lb smallie as well.<br /> <br /> Saturday night Steven and I fished Tims dogfight and We had a blast. We caught fish pretty much the whole night, we both missed 2 good fish. Steven lost 1 that was 8 or better and I lost 1 that was for or 5 lbs. We did manage to regroup and put together a good bag of fish. We finished with 13&#43;lbs for the win and BF of 6.11 and left the fish biting. We caught fish on a variety of baits but Shaky Head and SP&#39;s caught most of them. Steven lost his biggun on a Jig. It wrapped him around a dock and the unwrapped herself and just pulled off. Mine Jumped off near the boat but the ironic thing was, I caught the 6.11 on my last cast in the same spot I lost that fish earlier in the night at 1:45 am. That was crazy, we had 2 fish in the livewell that were same size so put on the balance beam and culled the smallest and proceeded back to HBSP. We probably caught 10 or so keepers and lots of shorts. Steven caught a 15&amp;quot; spot on a 10&amp;quot; worm which we culled and I caught 4 Smallmouth but the biggest was 17&amp;quot;. We had a blast.<br /> Sorry for the late report, Slept till 2pm Saturday and had to work Sunday.
