Fished the LLWT on Leech Sat. and Sun. with my son.
Prefishing Fri. I located some nice fish first fish measured 29 1/4 inches on the water for 30 minutes moved to another spot after I released it and caught a 24″ fish, nice but too small to weigh in the tourney.
Fishing a 7ft lindy with a crawler. The bite now is a Leech or crawler on a Lindy.
Day one we fish the spots we caught big fish on. The first five hours we had two fish under 18″ to weigh and had released 7 fish that were 24 inches to 25.5. Stayed to long in this spot as when we were going to make a move another 24.5 inch eye would get boated to sucker us in to fishing this spot longer.
12:30 with two fish I make a move up in the big lake to get three more fish to weigh in our five fish limit. This worked as we got our three nice unders to weigh in five at 7.08 lbs. Day one 48 place out of 155 boats.
Day two we need two over 26 inches to be in the money I work spots for big fish then make a run north to get unders didnt work last two hours back to our spot for over fish pulled in five minutes a bite a real nice fish and looks good mearure it and its a 25 7/8 inches just short so close but still short.
Day two went for the homerun we needed two over fish to get in the money no luck close but no cigar.
Had fun fishing with my son and Leech is back funny when you say not another 24 or 25 inch fish.
Pics of my 29 1/4 fish and a 24″ the same day sorry about the gill showing on the big fish didnt know it was like that. But I did release it and watch it swim away.
