Put my FNF baits to work today with nothing in return. Fished with Bassination today from 8am till noon. Saw AMX this morning and he had caught a decent one. Water temp was 58. Thought with the warm weather the last few days and a front moving in it would be good. I thought wrong. We beat the water and used just about everything. Did have a couple big fish follow a crank to the boat. Also seen a couple nice fish cruising. Threw a FNF bait in front of the fish and it came up to hit it and stopped and went the other way. Tough day fishing but a nice day to be out with good people.

Ragin, could to hear that some people are out there fishing their Fishin' fool baits. So curious.... did you rig up some kind of thing like Mark from the Sea did.... with a tape etc.?? Or what is your game plan? Will you just show a tape measure with your 3x5 card and the bait? I am exited for this little online tourney... but some of the schematics are a bit cornfusing.

I`m excited also. Was real excited this morning but that didn`t go as planned. Nice to be getting out with the weather. I`m just going to have a tape measure and my index card next to the fish. My camera has date and time. It was confusing to me also till I figured out what and how to do it. Really not that much to it.

I'll show you what I made next time I see you on the lake. Simple box shaped, with a line representing 14" so it's real easy to see at a glance if it's long enough. Also with a tape tacked to the 'floor' for a positive measurement. The index card is tacked to the 'back wall' and the card for each individual fish specs will be hung on wire hooks next to it for the picture.Gonna be a few days before I go again, going to rain for a week or so now.

Ya, caught a 2-3 smallie but the index card blew out of the boat on the way to the lake so can't count that one, so I fun fished for another hour, then went home. Found the card about a 1/4 mile from home just sitting off the shoulder of the road standing up like a tent. Even had the AMX letters facing me as I drove past it, real easy to read it. So I'm good for the next trip to the lake.

yes I want to see it and I`m curious to see if and how everyone else rigs there`s up. I won`t be back out till the weather turns. It`s really got the fish messed up out there. Seen beds from resently with not a soul around I can`t figure out what`s going on so I`m blamming the weather.

I was out there thurs for about 4hrs. no fish though. I have only fished out there one time and I think it was in January. I was gonna say the fish gods are "hatin" but I think its the weather gods. I did'nt see any beds. It seems like any time the winds blows from the southwest the fish are shut down.
