Was it cold or was it cold? Thursday was only down to 38 but we endured a very stiff northerly wind and lots of clouds. However for Dennis and I we had pretty good fish in Birch Creek which we mainly caught on C- rigs, T-rigs and the lunker for the tournament came on a square bill.
Friday was worse. While the winds were lighter the starting temps were about 27 and it took quite a while to warm up even with the sun shinning.
The Lake Fork Anglers fish every Thursday throughout the year fishing three different formats. A two times a month points race. A once a month Major League Fishing type format where every fish you catch counts, and a team competition. All three are draws where you fish with different anglers and all three are paper. WE just don't require anything further that catching, measuring, recording and releasing the bass. Pictures are allowed. Slot fish count.

First place team of Dennis Bubinas and Bruce Allen ended with 10 fish for 15.54 and the 5.08 lunker.
