Total Bass Addicts - Butch Nessline Memorial - May 7th - Bartlett Lake

Partner and I decided to fish the memorial tournament for a friend of ours that passed away few years ago. This tournament was an absolute blast. I do not remember the last time caught so many fish. We easily caught over 80 fish and we didn't want to come in. The carolina- rig was on fire!
We had no idea what to throw or where to go. We started in a summer time area and the fish just weren't having it. It took about 45 minutes to figure out that the fish were closer to the bottom and the Carolina-rigged baby brush hog was like candy to those fish. We proceeded to catch fish everywhere we went, and had to set the hook as early as possible because the fish were trying to swallow the bait. We caught them off the flats, the steep drop-offs, the ledges, rock piles etc.
We finished the tournament with 10.07lbs and finished 6th with 2nd place big fish. We couldn't wait to get back out and fish Bartlett some more.
