I knew that not getting that fifth keeper today was going to cost me (a check). I had about 2 hours to catch it, but I just never could.
I really only had two spots – a tree in the main current and a log in the lily pads. I caught all my fish flipping a Berkley Chigger Craw, and all four of them today came off the log.
I just kept coming back to it. I worked all around it, but all I caught were dinks.
My real problem was only having the two spots. If I'd had one more, I probably could have done a lot better.
Where they were, there were a lot of fish, and once in awhile you'd get a keeper. But there was also a lot of dead water out there.
I think I was 29th last year in this same tournament at Little Rock, so I'm consistently just out of the money.
