pschueller Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 My day 1 is over. The @Jinxd12 wake got me an impressive fish. But, it isn't enough to beat a similarly sized fish from the Carolinas. I still have some time though! 20221023_073050.mp4 Tommythegun1, 119bowhunter, bassbass and 13 others 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
119bowhunter Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Fished from 1:00-dark today, no fish, had one bite on the hinkle trout but I think it was a small one, I did take my brother in-law who doesn’t fish much and he caught his first swimbait fish, a 4 pounder on a 10” magdraft...going to take a day off work this week to try and get a bigger one Ipleadthefish2, Rogervang, ThatKidInNY and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Csweitzer Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Flew in from Hawaii on Friday, 27 hours on the water over the past 3 days and this is all I have to show for it! It wasn’t for lack of effort that’s for sure! Threw nothing but 10”+ baits and never saw a big one. bassbass, ThatKidInNY, 253caster and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzed bait Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Yeah I’ve sucked… 20 hours on the water in 2 days and had 2 bites on the citizen. One was nothing and other one looked like this…. Hot, tired and mentally exhausted makes you do dumb stuff like try to turn the fish like this! Wasn’t the fish I needed to win anyways, but still….

Tommythegun1 Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Just checking in from Minnesota. Been extremely slow here. Best I can do so far and this isn't gonna make the cut. 4.5 SumoNinja, GrizzleyShad, Jordan B and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bASS_Hunter Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 One of the most beat up, deformed fish ive seen. Had the length but not the girth. Best I could do for 4 straight days of swimbaiting. Sigh. lmv_bassfishing, 119bowhunter, chevro1et and 16 others 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SumoNinja Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Aside from the fish that secured me a spot in this battle I've been on small ones all year. Didn't bother weighing it. October has never been a great month for size for me. buzzed bait, Rogervang, Tommythegun1 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archtx9 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 4 hours today yielded one bite on the 250.

buzzed bait Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 After my 30th hour on the water this week, I though for a second I might have had a good one when I saw this one in the water. Had the length I was after but the weight was WTF? Same length as the 8-5 I caught earlier this year! This was only 5-5. I can say I have tried with all I’ve got on this one guys!!! chevro1et, GrizzleyShad, 119bowhunter and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
