AZ Head to Head Bracket - Round 4 - June 4th - Bartlett Lake

After 2 hours sleep and a horrible Saturday night showing at Bartlett it was time to do it all over for round 4 at the same lake I struggled at. I covered one end of the the lake to the other and  threw a crankbait all morning. I found a pattern about 7am, throwing a crankbait on the inside of small points. I noticed that they were mouthing the bait and had to give them a second to eat it then set hard. It produced 4 keepers on the points and a few shorts. After I talked to the guy I was competing against and knew he had a limit, I decided to crank some rocky shoreline near the ramp area. That was the ticket for me, I caught my 5th fish and found a spot on a spot and proceeded to catch 70-80 fish on the area and had a limit that went well over 11lbs and they just kept biting. We weighed at 11am and I took the win with a little over 11lbs with a 3.79 kicker to his limit of just under 7lbs. The fishing was so good I went back out to see if could cull up to 12lbs, it took about 15 minutes and 4 fish later and easily had over 12. It was one of my best days on Bartlett Lake, and a huge turnaround from the previous night. Now only have the finals left, looking forward to wherever it will be.
