Biglakeba$$ prefishes the week prior to the tourney. He has a underwater cage that he puts da smallies in, den scoops dem up and puts dem in his live well for da weigh in. Talk about ethics! smile.gif

Oh I'm only kidding, but I gave him an idea now - yuck yuck!

BigMike, Sorry, my buddy River Wader is going with me. You can use my other boat if I don't sell it before then(highly unlikely). I think it will go fast this spring though.

BigLake, Put mine under the bridge near the 2nd Piling!

5 fish limit for the boat!
You fish all day, and bring back 5 fish for your boat. 10+ to 12+ pounds has been the Team winning weight for 5 fish.
Big fish is typically around 4 pounds, and that has paid out several hundred dollars each year as well.
The Miss stretch is 6.5 miles, and the Rum is only .5 miles.

I think there are 5 or 6 pillars under the bridge, so get your orders in fast. The pillars are going like hot cakes!

I fished the first Smallmouth Tournament they had in 1989. We took 3rd place with
8lb 7oz. and came in 3 hours before we needed to. Live and learn. That is a fun tournament. I think I will get in this year.

Fishin's the fun part catchin them is a bonus!

Hawgtide...lookin' for a partner? Biglake is posting this topic everywhere...I'm just trying to keep up on all the posts. LOL!

I think this could be the pre-smallie magnet tourney! wink.gif

I asked biglake what some of the winning weigh ins have been when he has fished this tourney and he said 5 fish for 10-12lbs (I'm assuming per person = 10fish/team = 20-24lb/team). That doesn't sound all that tough for the smallie magnet! Especially with a week of pre-fishing and a cage to save'em all. $2500 winning payout sounds way to tempting!!!!

Well BigLakeBa$$ It was one of the first money tournaments I ever fished. And we got to thinking that a bird in hand was worth two in the bush and came in a weighed our fish. I have long since learned differently.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
