The plan was to have a friendly fish-off between several members. Unfortunately, weather was a little wacky. I wasn't even sure if I was going to fish until that morning. Heard rain overnight and wh...

Met up with AMX and Jesusfish for a friendly fish off at Lake Meridian. I've never fished a "tournament" before, so it's a bit foreign to me. But I know how to catch some fish, even if they are sma...
