For two days I've been on bedding fish, and I went back this morning and caught a 6-pounder on my third cast. I had visions of grandeur, but that was my last good fish of the day.
I was pretty disappointed today. I spent all of my time in the area where I caught my fish Friday because I thought it had more fish.
Actually, the money isn't even a factor in my mind. I fished this tournament just like I would have fished if a bunch of guys had thrown $5 into a pot. I fish the same way no matter what.
I'm going to change and fish some new areas tomorrow. All I can do is go catch as many fish as I can. We'll see what happens.
I had to fish slow on the bottom, keeping my rod-tip near the surface. If I raised the rod even a little, the 40-mph wind became troublesome.
