BACK TO BACK...3/15/08

Charlie Youngers wins his second tournament in a row, weighing in 5-fish for 12.26lbs. Charlie said, "that he caught 3 limits of fish but just could not get the big bite." Clermont was like the previous tournament on East Lake, in that we were fishing post spawn fish, and the majority of the fish caught were males, according to Charlie. Congratulations Charlie! We will miss you in May! (inside joke)

Mark Beasley came in second place with 3-fish that weighed -in at 9.48lbs. Mark had Big Bass for the tournament that weighed in at 7.13lbs. He was fishing with Mr. Big Bass form last year Joe Bloodsworth. Joe said, "I like to share the big girls with my non-boater occasionally." Mark is currently in 2nd place in the clubs overall standings and holds Big Bass for the year so far.

Davis Taylor came to the scales with 5-fish that weighed -in at 9.42lbs. Davis is the only member to weigh-in a limit of fish in each of our first 3 tournaments. He is currently tied for 2nd place in the clubs overall standings. Congratulations Davis!!!!

The post tournament fishing report: like our pervious tournament on East Lake, the fish were in post spawn for the most part. Our anglers caught their fish using Jerk baits, Lizards, Senkos, Spinner baits, and Flukes. The weather was cloudy with winds 15-20. Water temp 67-70.

HE'S BACK...2/9/08

Charlie Youngers made his return to TBM on East Lake Toho with his first win in 08. He came to the scales with a 5 fish limit that weighed-in @ 12.86lbs. He also took Big Bass honors with a 3.80lb. fish. Charlie has suffered a long and slow recovery from an illness he came down with post back surgery. After the club tournament, ,Charlie said, " I am feeling better but I am not 100% yet." Congratulations and welcome back Charlie.

Joe Bloodworth is back in a big way to start this tournament season off. Joe came to the scales with a 5 fish limit that weighed- in at 9.90lbs. Joe is currently in first place in the club standings and leads in all categories. Great job, HERO!

Bruce Frucci (past angler of the year) has not showed up in the winner's circle in some time. On this day he had a 5 fish limit that weighed in @ 8.69lbs. Congratulations Bruce. Bill Sipe once said, "Just call him LUCKY".

The post tournament fishing report: some of the bigger females have already spawned and were recovering in deeper water. They should began to feed again soon. Most of what we caught were males. A wide variety of baits were used successfully by our anglers; however, most were in the plastics category,( including worms, creature baits, frogs, and flukes). The weather was frontal conditions, (with calm winds in the morning and blowing winds and clouds later, as the front came threw around noon). Water temp: 66-68. The spawning areas on the lake should hold active fish over the coming months. Look for the females to began feeding again soon.

NON-BOATER S RULE ON TOHO 1/19/08

Mike Lively announces his return to TBM with a first place finish on Toho. Mike had a five fish limit that weighed-in at 10.21lbs. Mike also took Big Bass with a 3.56lber. Fishing as a non-boater, Mike takes the early lead for angler of the year.

Mark Beasley finishes in second place with a five fish limit that weighed-in @7.54lbs. Mark has shown in past tournaments that fishing from the back of the boat can keep your boater partner busy handling the job of netting your fish.

Representing the Boaters: Davis Taylor places third with a five fish limit that weighed in @ 7.35lbs. Known as "Mr. Humble" Davis will tell you he gets lucky every once in a while, and most of us would agree with that statement.

Did Jim Miller fish Toho?
