Smallmouth Report @ Lake Cumberland

[QUOTE=Rangerman;312465]What did it take to win? I heard one of the tourneys down there this past weekend took 25lbs to win. Congrats to whomever, that was one heck of a sack of fish. I didn't hear anything more so not sure if they were smallies or LM's but it really don't matter, lol! Very impressive.[/QUOTE]

there was a tournament sunday, it was the south central classic. it did take 25 lbs to win it was jon devere and his son shannon they are really tough on the big C. five smallmouth and one largemouth. 6 fish limit.

[quote=Boone;312477]I'll give you a call on your cell Saturday AM if I'm still on the lake. I'm staying at TimberPoint Lodge, thus I will most likely launch out of Jamestown marina, not the state park.

Sounds good, although I have spotty cell phone coverage down there on the lake. Of course, if Dad backs out again and you're fishing, I'd be happy to drive down and meet up with you.

raining cats and dogs right now as i type. water will come up and the rain is "warm" for this time of year. would expect fish to "move up". air temps are dropping for the next several days according to local forecast. 72 today and by friday high in the 50's. lows in the upper 20 to lower 30 by end of week. fishing was great today and would expect it to stay that way or get better! dress warm and dry however as the air temps are gonna be cool especially if further rain. fnf and shakey heads are catching fish right now. if the water gets stain, crankin has produced some huge sacks in the local tourneys lately. good luck and post results. let me know if you need other info.

Michael,
I'm playing it by ear right now as far as Saturday goes. I'll give you a call Friday night if I'm staying over to fish Saturday. My cell is spotty also, unless I get in the middle of the lake or up on a high hill.

If you Dad isn't going, then we can make plans to meet up at Jamestown dock.

Let's catch a few fish,

Gary

Yep, I heard it was John and Shannon as well. They are good fisherman, regardless of the lake. Around this time of year someone occassionally brings in a 20+lb bag. Kudos to them for doing a great job.

In the south central classic last week it did take almost 25 lbs to win. The devier bro's had 2 lm and 4 sm that weighed 24 something.
