Tournament day…

September 27th, 2008

    
Fished my 3rd Southern Utah Bass Anglers (SUBA) tournament of the year and first since March at Sand Hollow Reservoir down here in south-western Utah.  Got my 2nd personal 1st place finish.  My partner, Rob “The Cheese” Huston, gave me a schooling on buzzbaits.  Just freaking wacking big fish with it…ALL DAY!  I was happy as a clam catching our little fish and watching the show knowing we were kicking ass. 

     At this lake the regulations are 6 bass with only one over 12 inches.  With these regulations a team can only weigh 2 bass over 12 inches and 3 bass under 12 inches for a total of 5 fish to weigh.  So the trick to winning was getting two kicker fish.  Our biggest kicker fish was 5 lbs 7 oz after pucking up a nice bass fillet.  Rob picked it off in a mudline right on the bank with the buzzer.  Awesome.

      Anyway, we took the 2nd Big Fish award and 1st place with 10 lbs 14 oz.  Only 1 oz or fillet away from the 1st Big Fish award.  I did catch our 3 dinks and loads of tweeners.  Fun day, but hot as hell.  Learned and witnessed an amazing day for my partner tossing the buzzbait.
