Fished the American Fishing Tour out of Wind Creek. We blasted off along with the buddy tournament for the Alex City Rotary. I fished up river first trying some top water on some long points then soft plastics. I couldn't find a morning bite. I figured it would be a tough day. Since I did well in practice on the GP 8" lizard, I decided to make it my day's pattern. I caught lots of fish up and down the river, but all of them were small dinks. A couple came unbuttoned that were closer to the 2 lb class. The fish were one here, one there, one not over here, and so on. Then I got onto a windblown bank and found a school of spots working a ledge that dropped from 5' to 12'. I caught several in a row. Then I got to the end of the wind blown area and felt a sharp strong tap. After a couple of nice jumps I pulled in a 6.35 lb. largemouth to go with my dinks. In the same area I missed a couple of good sized fish that followed my lizard to the boat and tried to engulf it, but missed. I ended up with just over 9 lbs. and first place. Second was 8 something. Last month the GP lizard did me well on Lay, too. It's a great spring bait. They didn't like the 6" lizard as well as the 8" one. I also tried a crank bait for a while and caught a couple of hybrids, but no bass.

An interesting thing that I encountered on my way up river was a man in a t-Shirt waving an orange shirt as I ran the channel. I heard him yell help as I flew by, so I cut my engine and swung back around to find out what his trouble was. He said he had run his boat up on the sand bar in the dark the night before as he was headed up river to fish for some stripes. He had spent the night on the sand bar. He wanted to get in my boat and have me take him up to the Alex City ramp, but I couldn't get into shore without bellying out. He was going to wade out to my boat, but then (happily) he gave me his brother's phone number and I called him. His brother didn't seem really happy for the wake up call, and it took a minute to sink in what I was telling him. He said he would get his brother in about an hour. I relayed the message, said good luck, and pushed the hotfoot to the floor...I was back in the tournament. I know several boats ran past this fellow without bothering to stop. If I weren't in a tournament, I would have done more, but I saw what I did as a reasonable compromise. Anyway, a fellow that runs his boat up on a bar at night when he is not properly preparred rightly deserves some discomfort as a lesson.

You are a helluva guy? That person spent the night on a sand bar and you think he deserves additional discomfort. I'm sure he was pleased to meet you.

A man who knows the important things in life! Green Pumpkin lizard. Texas rigged. Fished slow in brush and wood. I mean IN brush and wood.
We don't encounter enough discomfort these days. It causes us to be inattentive and lazy.

He was pleased to meet me because he had watched three boats go by that had ignored his plea.

Good. I have some of those, so I don't have to buy more stuff(but I'll probably do it anyway).
