Congrat Daren. Also a big congrats to my team tournament partner who finished second and also had big fish. Way to go Jeff Cox.

It was luck really. Jeff and I had been up there two weeks prior and got fish doing the same thing..but I was primarily bed fishing that day and did not fish the stenko much at all. This time I did a quick run of a few spots looking at water clarity and looking for beds and cruising fish. Saw lots of empty beds and a lot of smaller 1 to 2 pound cruisers so I decided to see if I could get a small limit on stenkos and then throw the trout bait. As you can see I stuck to the senko all day for the simple fact that they were eating it and every fish I caught on it was decent fish. I may have had a better shot at a "big" fish had I thrown the Hudd but I decided to run spots and fish the senko...I figured if i got a 4 on it early a 6 or 7 was bound to eat it at some point. Too bad Mr. Cox beat me to her!! It was a fun day and it was nice to get off the shnide for the '05-'06 club season.
