Barren Report

How do you know they hadnt known about that spot already and were simply waiting their turn at that hole? And the next day simply beat you to THEIR honey hole...just cuzz its your honey hole doenst mean it aint someone elses too...

I have fished a crappy bank waiting for a boat to pull out before... then when they are gone, its as much mine as theirs... if i get on fish when i get there, i aint leaving just cuz he comes back...

Dont take this personal,but if u cant tell when someone is watching you and looking at what your throwing and how you position your boat then your not paying attention to what is goin on around you.I notice this because if im on a patteren im looking for things around me that can tell me if this patteren doesnt work come tourney day i want to know where they went and why they might have changed what they where doing. Like are there bait fish on a flat nearby is there a drop next to where i am fishing,if the wind is comeing from south,west ect.Finding a pattern is only half of it,knowing what to do if it changes is the other half.Pay more attention to whats around you and you will be amazed at what you discover.If a person will put fish in a basket and tie it up and get them and weigh them in on tourney day,dont think they want watch other anglers and take advantage of what they saw.Its no differnt than watching Bill Dance do his thing i just think its unsportsman and disrespectfull but thats the price we pay for having community holes on Barren River Lake and every lake has them right.If you fish barren lake during the week monday thru thursday keep an eye out and you see what i mean.
