I caught more fish today than in any day of practice, but never caught a decent fish. My five keepers weighed in just under ten pounds…. I got crushed! I’ll have to have one of those miracle stringer tomorrow if I’m going to take home any cash. Joe Thomas Blog

Yesterday was my final practice day on Kentucky Lake and it seemed like I was dodging storms all day long!
Today I worked on tackle most of the morning, before heading to the other end of the lake and checking into a different hotel near the FLW launch site at Kentucky Dam Marina. I really need to catch them tomorrow. Joe Thomas Blog
We had a lot of water to cover during the Arkansas River tournament. I’m happy to say that it felt good to catch ‘em a little bit better than I had for most of the season.
Not that I killed ‘em; I had some missed opportunities, but after a bad first day, I recovered and caught a pretty good bag which moved me from 82nd place after day one, up to 36th. I managed another limit on day three and moved into 24th place. skeetreeseinc.com
