Houchin's Calculated Risk Paid Off

By Todd Ceisner
BassFan Editor

Quincy Houchin isn’t one to shy away from risk in tournaments.

“I’m known for swinging for the fence,” he said. “I’m usually a hero or zero. I’m there to win.”

That’s the tack Houchin took into last week’s Lake Dardanelle Central FLW Series, where he went up against a 200-boat field at a venue known for fishing fairly small. He found his way into a hard-to-access backwater pond and mined it for the better part of three days to come away with the biggest win of his fishing career.

The Mablevale, Ark., native’s weights fell off each day, but his 45-04 total wound up 11 ounces better than runner-up Tom Silber. Because of the field size and figuring the bulk of the fish would be isolated in certain areas, Houchin knew he had to roll the dice to be successful.

“On Sunday morning when I went there to start practice, my goal was to find a place that would be hard to get into,” he said. “I knew I had to spend practice doing something nobody else did.”

Here are some highlights to how Houchin conquered Dardanelle in wire-to-wire fashion:

All To Himself

Houchin considers Lake Ouachita and DeGray Lake his home water, but has fished Dardanelle pretty regularly over the years.

“It’s a lake you can do almost whatever your strength is to catch fish,” he said. “It fits my style, but I get beat there all the time. I’d never won there until now.”

To have success, he knew he’d have to get away from the crowds that were sure to besiege the Arkansas and Illinois rivers and places like Illinois Bayou. He found his solitude in a backwater pond on the north side of the lake that he knew existed from previous trips, but figured access could be an issue.

“I knew it was there,” he said. “I’d fished it all my life. The last two years, we’ve had major floods so it was no issue getting in there.”

Last week, with the water near normal levels, it was a bit of a challenge, but he was able to power his way over a sandbar and access an area that he said “had everything you could ask for.”

“The opening is only 50 yards wide at the most in ankle-deep water,” he said. “In practice, I had to jump it, but the water came up and nobody else tried it. During the tournament, it wasn’t hard to get in there. The water came up the night before. Everybody wrote it off. I knew they would. Once I saw the water come up, I knew they wouldn’t come back because they didn’t know what was in there to begin with.”

What Houchin found was plenty of laydowns and other wood targets in 2 to 4 feet and also in 6 to 9 feet. He believes the area was home to a population of resident fish, most of which had already spawned.

“It’s a big, square backwater,” he said. “It’s perfect. It had sand, wood and rock.”

In practice, he immediately tapped into a flipping bite with a couple 3-pounders and a 4-pounder. From there, he didn’t lean into anything else, but he fished around in order to see what else was there and to learn the terrain a little bit more. He tried to develop a topwater pattern, but couldn’t get anything going with it.

It was somewhat exposed to the constantly-changing weather patterns. Still, it held up while Houchin remained committed, which was a departure from the norm.

“The water came up, the current picked up and that muddied it up,” he said. “I had to slow down more when the conditions changed. The fish were still there.

“I’m known to run and gun. I’m known to cover the river in a day, but I knew I had to stick with the spot. On day 3, I almost veered off, but I went back there because that’s what I knew I had to do.”

Keeping the Faith

Houchin figured someone would pop a 20-pound stringer on day 1 from somewhere on the lake, but his 19-11 effort was the best of the bunch. He said the clarity in his area deteriorated as the tournament progressed with the water continuing to come up gradually. All but three of the fish he weighed in came out of the backwater pond.

“When you’re flipping wood like that, when the water rises, they don’t come up with it that fast,” he said. “They stay down and are harder to catch.”

His strategy was to target shallower wood in the mornings, then pick over the deep targets as the sun got up.

He added 14-01 on day 2 to stay in the lead.

On day 3, he had the urge to abandon the spot that had carried him to the lead, but he stuck with it.

“I knew what I’d have to do,” he said. “I knew the east wind would hurt me, but I didn’t expect it to blow 25 mph. As it was, I could only fish a quarter of it. My head was playing games with me and I was wanting to change course. I almost did, but I went back there.”

He mixed in a silent square-bill crankbait a bit more on the final day and it produced a keeper for him, but he also lost a good one around noon.

“I thought, ‘There go my chances (to win),’” he said.

With four fish in his livewell and time running out on his day, he decided to leave his best spot. An hour after losing that 5-pounder, he caught a 3 1/2-pounder on the crankbait to finish his limit.

“Then I was like, ‘I still have 90 minutes left,’” he said. “I’d already left my spot and I was scrambling, trying to land on something.”

As it turned out, the 11-07 he had was just enough to shore up the victory.

“It’s definitely my biggest win,” he said. “I’ve won a few BFLs and Angler of the Year in the BFL, and a lot of stuff around home, but this was the biggest.”

Winning Gear Notes

> Flipping gear: 7’3” heavy-action Denali Lithium flipping rod, Team Lew's Lite casting reel (6.8:1 ratio), 25-pound Seaguar AbrazX fluorocarbon line, 1/2-oz. Real Deal Tungsten flipping weight, 4/0 Laser TroKar flipping hook, Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver (green-pumpkin/red flake).

> Cranking gear: 7’3” medium-heavy Denali Rosewood crankbait rod, same reel, 15-pound Seaguar InvizX fluorocarbon line, Lucky Craft 2.5 silent square-bill crankbait (TO chart)

The Bottom Line

> Main factor in his success – “Probably sticking to what I’d originally planned to do. That’s very hard to do. I know the pros do it, but it’s hard for me to do.”
