Good Luck in NC! I'll be out chasing those southern Hawgs too! Heading to Bama tomorrow morning for 3 days of fishing. The weather forecast is a little better for Alabama, but not much. 50's and 60's.

Well I ma back from Lake Norman! Had a great trip.

I fished with Chris Baumgartner on day one, he runs the Snickers boat, Had a good day under the shared weight format you really dont have a lot of control over the outcome. But I did catch my limit and even culled. We fished small cranks, and jig worms around deep brushpiles off docks. The dock fishing is way different than what we are used to. I was in 14th after day one. Day two I fished with Terry Scroggins ( leader of the AOY RACE!!!!) We where fishing docks to start, and had a big school comeup in the cove behind us! after 15 minutes of throwing everything at them with no hits, I tied on an X-Rap and caught a 17 incher first cast! next cast I had another hit missed that one next cast I hook about a 3lber!!! She jumps three times and then just pulled off. Terry asks if he can use one of the baits. I gave him one and he caught 5 in a row!! No more bites for me.

I caught about 15 more fish, but they were all 12- 13.5 inches. They had to be 14 to keep.

I missed the chance to fish Saturday by 1lb 11 oz. ended up in 18th. I did learn a lot and had a blast! I will try to do it again. And yes they really are that good!!!

Ross I saw you when I was getting my truck at the airport, but could not get your attention. And no it was not my first tournament. (it was first BASS event).

Swampbuck,great job for a guy from "walleye country"! (haha)

I got to fish an Everstart event two years ago on Lake Vermillion, I can't even explain the excitment level a guy goes through (maybe just me?)! Dion Hibbdon, Dave Dudley, Koby Krieger along with a few other well knowns were there, it was just a great learning experiance overall and a heck of a good time! It is like taking a short course in fishing 101.

Good Job!!!!
