[ryan_ekubass]

i am going down to barren in a week or so and i have done ok there in the past i just was just wondering what some of the best ways to go about catching fish out there would be.....

Ask Drew or Richard...I'm sure they can tell you. And once you find out, please post it on here for everyone else. I know some guys at Murray State, U of L, and WKU that are all wanting to know the answer to your question as well.

lol thats pretty funny.... i was just doin that to see what kind of response i would get on here.... i hope i can find the fish down there and i just hope we can bring that trophy home for the third year in a row...... but who knows its fishing.....

Have you heard any details on the event?

all i know is its june 7th at the same place we put in last year and i am goin down the day before to prefish i guess we are staying at the same motel and stuff as last year but i dont know western kentucky university is doing it and i dont think they are doing a good job about letting people know about it....i just know the date and not real sure about the location but i am about to get on facebook and figure it out though.....

hey ryan, i tried to send you a message that contains all the info. if you have another e-mail i can send you the actual flyer and you can forward it to all of your guys. i second the notion that wku does a crappy job of handling some things. the club members from wku just got the flyer today at like noon. nonetheless, the date, time and place are set. i don't think 15 lbs will win it this year. probably more like 20+. good luck to you guys. see ya on the 7th!

[ryan_ekubass]

well we will see ya there....

I wouldnt hit the deep pattern yet b/c we have not had enough hot days to send the fish deep.... during the bfl ALL the boys that fished deep were scratching their heads wondering what they did wrong but with water temps in the 60's still the fish WILL not be deep!! Caught one fish during practice over there on a c-rig and that one was 5 fooot deep and tried all the spots that i rig this time of year and no takers... the fella i got paired up with had 16 pounds in about 30 minutes on a topwater..
