that means there is a $1000 guaranteed tourny headin out saturday mornin on green...everyone fishing it will be tightlipped...then we have another tournament 2 weeks after that so it might be hard to get much info

tight lipped,thats funny.i will tell you what little i do know and hope you rack em.i started about 8 this morning and water temps where 55 or so and then a little cooler up in the coves,but by 2 pm i seen 64 a couple places.as far as clarity at lone valley area it is stained with bout 8 inches visibility,and i did go toward robinson and i thought it was a little more chocolate lookin,and a guy at ramp said it was more choclate looking past the dam.they are or where pulling the lake hard so that mite explain the chocolate look.i fished all day and threw everything but my ham sandwich at em,and ll i got to show for it is a red face,broken spinnerbait from a dandy muskie(that got the golden rule),and a sore arm from wacking at em all day.i did see some great funny stuff at lone valley ramp,and seen several kevin van dams running up and down the lake.my advice is if your not in tourney tomorrow,go somewhere else,there will be 100 kevin van dams down there tomorrow. hope my report helps

Getting reports of where NOT to go is very useful too...thanks for the heads up on the Green tournaments.

I'll post a more complete report later, but our USA Bassin tournament had a big weigh in. 17 boats fished, one didn't show at the ramp for weigh in, but the other 16 all weighed fish.

22.52 pounds won it.
21.79 took second.
17.19 took third.

Big bass was a monster 8.19 pound large mouth (and it was NOT in any of the bags listed above). Next best was a 5.72 LM, followed by a 5.15 LM.

Top 2 sacks were both caught on 1/2 ounce spinnerbaits (Chartreuse, dual indiana blade, with chartreuse grub trailer).

April 18, 2009 - Tournament Results

Water Temps
58 when we launched
66 when we put it on the trailer

Water Condition
Most of the lake is moderately stained. Clearer around Lone Valley, Heavy stain around Holmes Bend

The winning team of Buddy Ford and Steve Erickson weighed a huge 22.52 pound limit. All five of their largemouth were over four pounds. They culled through two limits of fish caught on a chartreuse spinnerbait fished on main lake bluff and broken rock walls.

Bruce and I were right on the winners' heels with a 21.79 pound limit of largemouth. We culled through more than three limits of fish, most of which were 3 to 3.5 pounds. We were fishing the same pattern as the winners (For at least a few hours, even the same bank).

The big bass for the tournament was a monster 8.19 pound largemouth caught by Samuel Boles and Jason Disney. I didn't get a chance to find out how/where it was caught.
