Today's Top 5

1. 12-09 lake record caught in MS.

Okhissa:

> “I own my own business and (friends) knew I had to work (last weekend). They kept sending me all these pictures of the slot fish they were catching.”

> Beasley said he had grown increasingly frustrated with some broken machinery…. “I was stressed,” Beasley said. “(His wife) told me to step away from it and go do something I enjoy. She was being a good wife.”

Last cast of the day with a trick worm:

The look-away pattern – works!

> “I’d cast it out there and took my eyes off it. I think I was fooling with my trolling motor. When I looked up, my line had moved about 15 feet.”

2. Do frog bottoms matter?

That's what this vid claims. Make sense to you?

3. I…caught a 12-incher and I was pretty excited.

Dude (from NC!), William Kemp, who won the Potomac Ray-o-Start this weekend, talkin' 'bout a tough day. Baits:

> Flipping a Zoom Brush Hog produced most of Kemp’s fish on days one and two. In the final round, he caught them on a black/blue swim jig with a blue Netbait Paca Craw trailer, and a Rico Popper.

4. My heart was actually out of my body (during the operation). Isn't that unbelievable?

FLWer Tom Monsoor talkin' 'bout overcoming heart issues and operations. That would be unbelievable if he didn't find his doc on Craigslist:

5. Jerkbait piercing.

Shot's not me, but why I gave up fishing outta canoes – I did it to a bud – can still feel and hear it….

Tip of the Day

Jason Christie: Competition tips.

Misc but good:

> I think it was Larry Nixon who told me to just be myself – as a person and as an angler. He said, "Do what you know how to do and you'll be fine."

> If I can fish my strengths, that's what I'm going to do. It gives me the best chance to win.

> A tournament is usually an eight-hour day, and the last five minutes are just as important as the first five. Early in my career, if things didn't go right early, some self-doubts would creep in and derail me for the whole day. In the last few years, I've learned to resist that. Good things can happen quickly and at any time, but you need to be ready to take advantage of them.

Quote of the Day

We create the impression that it's really expensive to catch a bass — with our big boats and motors and state-of-the-art rods, reels and lures — but it doesn't have to be that way.

Christie again, talkin' 'bout what's wrong with the sport o' bassin'.
