well, i will have to be working for most of the upcomming tournaments, but here is what i have found. if you want to catch quality fish on brl right now. early am go extreem shallow for some bassmaster type action. you will need 40lb spider wire braid, or 20lb spider mono will work. i get about 15 percent more bites using the new double bladed buohyaa buzz. color is not making a diffrence, untill sun pops out. then go dark colors. during the day and night time, you will have to DOWNSIZE your plastics. i was using a 10berkley worm and not getting crap, but my SI unit was showing bass everywhere. finnaly decided small fish are better than none and put on a 6 inch finess worm (floating tail) with a make shift carolina rig. 1/4oz weight about 2 ft from hook. made huge diffrence. however, you will catch lots of small fish this way, you just have to weed them out until you get a big one. hope this helps yall, i dont care to share since i have to work several days and miss some tournaments, im sure it will change by the time i get back on the water.

just so there is no confusion, the reason you need a heavy line in the am with the buzz is because you need to throw it in areas that have weed beds sticking out of the water. if you hang it up instead of moving in and scaring fish, you will need some strengh to pull it loose from the dead twigs.

fished sunday and tried the dead bushes and only caught short fish. managed to catch two keepers on deep walls. We got third with 8 lbs. Big fish was 5.66lbs. Not a bad day, but first place had 6 fish that weighed 18 lbs. They had some nice quality bass. we caught fish on everything we threw, just no numbers of 15 inchers. most were 13-14 in.
