Flew to Tampa today and rented a car, then headed on down to Longboat Key where we will be shooting a tarpon show for Stihl’s Reel in the Outdoors with friend Pat DeCastro of Kerry Automotive. It has been a long time since I have fished for tarpon and I can’t wait to get on the water tomorrow!

I couldn’t get my truck headed home fast enough after today’s weigh in. I took a gamble today to try to catch up after a bad day yesterday and it only got worse. I ran to Lake Barkley (which is connected to Kentucky Lake) to an area I knew from an earlier event.

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.

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.

I caught a fish today that I swear looked like small Musky, even though the Tennessee DNR says there are none in this lake.
