11974, Day 1 Report Posted by swimbait, Sat Aug-06-11 07:20 PM
Ah the spectacle of the frog derby :) Good turnout, 169 boats I think? Nice weather, a little windy at the end.
Fishing did not seem very good. We didn't practice and had no expectations but dang, it was hard to get a bite on a frog by any standard.
We had 2 that committed to the frog and weighed 4.2 pounds. It's a 3 bass limit. Heard 12lbs was leading when we left. Big fish an 8lber.
The other year we fished this thing we blanked day 1 and caught 12 on day 2. So by my math, our day 1 catch increased 200% :)
Who knows what tomorrow will bring. We'll try all new areas. I caught my only bass on a stock white bobby's perfect frog!
