After the awesome time my partner and I had the week before during the day, we decided to do the first night tournament of the year. The results were just as amazing as the day. The carolina-rig bite once again was on fire all 8 hours of the tournament and it was just a matter of finding the right size fish.
We started in the same place we left off and the bites were instantaneous, unfortunately not the right size. We made a move and had out limit in a few minutes. We moved a few times before dark and upgraded every place we went. We proceeded to cull all night but only a few ounces at a time. It wasn't until we found a crankbait bite to make it a one-two punch. We caught a few key fish on the crankbait and kept culling with them as well as more coming off the brush hog. We caught fish until the very last cast which happened to be the difference as we caught out last cull of the night, which pushed us to our 10.1lb limit and a solid 3rd place finish. With the bite this good, 60-80 fish again, we are looking forward to more tournaments at Bartlett Lake this summer, especially once they raise the water.
