WON Bass is talking about a major classic out of Fisher's Landing.
Should be interesting. Of course I have to decide what tournaments I
fish and which ones I don't so WON bass is not on my list this year,
except maybe going once or twice as a AAA to Havasu or Meade.

Bob, John is fishing all the WON events in the southern region this
year...maybe you two will hook up if you go as an AAA, that would be
neat!
As for top water in colder weather...they are certainly not my favorite
choices, but I have caught some really nice bass on them. I fished Tims
Ford in Tennessee in the winter time (lived a block from the lake), and
I tried everything, I fished over em, under em, and through em . I
figure that just because the bait fish arn't all over the top, doesn't
mean the bass wouldn't "eat" one if it was there grin. And like Bill
said, stripers hit top water in the winter, caught many of them that
way. But I know you are more familiar with that "river" area, and I
don't think I could add a thing to your arsenal...but someday I would
like to wet a line with you, I still like the river!
p.s. You might try throwing a spook up in the shallows a couple times
just for the fun of it though, look for real light cover...a twig, or
stick up. grin.

I threw Spittin Image (a fat stick type topwater) over a hole this morning.
I got my only decent hit all day on it. A real try to kill it splash.
