Default We did it!!!

This past weekend is one not to be forgotten!! Jack Dunn (JLDII)asked if I'd be his partner for the Red Doors 13th annual walleye tourney on Mille Lacs. We pre fished with some luck but not what we were hoping for. Saturday we worked the rocks with bobbers from 6 to 8 feet of water and pulled in 6 slots for a weight of 11.02 pounds that was good enough for 4th on day one. To bad it wasn't the ESPN outdoor games I caught a 22" smallie!! The leader was 16.something pounds after day one. We decided with the storm that moved in and the mayfly hatch that we would go back to the same areas and pull slots with corks. It seems that the flys are more previlent on the mud so we knew that the rock fish were eating normal food!! It was tough throwing back 15 inchers hoping to get our 8th fish to be bigger. We moved out to some 17 foot gravel once the sun came out and picked up our 8th fish on a spinner. We lolly gaged back in to weigh in an hour early. Our 8 had a weight of 14.32 pounds on day 2 and that gave us enough for a 25.34 pound win!! Second place went to Jeff, another one of McQuaids awesome guides!!! He had 21.something pounds.

Good job. Thats why we fish tournaments to feel that you were on top for the that day or days and beat several good sticks out there that wanted the same thing you did is to win first place. I came little short on the RCL League tourny at Mille Lacs. I came in 3rd place as being the co-angler. I was happy with that but, nothing beats first place. Again good job.
