Subject: Guntersville, Alabama
Submitted by TroyJ/Angling Alabama
Date Fished: 6/8/2002
Water Temperature: 82
Water Clarity: 4 feet or greater You might know, I finally get to fish a tournament, and instead of the slick, sunny and hot days I love, we get a windy, cloudy and cool day. There were 38 boats in the Waterfront tournament today. My partner and I struggled all day for quality bites. I fished a jig most of the day, and never got a bump on it. I couldn't even get a gar to take a swing at it. I did manage to catch a 6.51-lb fish on a spinnerbait early that took the second big fish place check, but we could only hammer out a best 5 of a little over 15-lbs, which was far short of the 1st place prize captured by Mitch Smith and his partner with just under 21-lbs. Way to go Mitch! They also had 1st big fish for the day. Most of our keepers came on a 10" Junebug Riverside ribbon tail worm, and a couple on a buzzbait just before weigh-in. Take pride in the great resources we are all blessed with, and let those big fish go.
