Fished a tournament on Watts Bar Saturday. The weather was pretty much nasty all day. The fish were scattered and we couldn't seem to get on any consistent pattern. Tried deep, shallow, points... everything. Found one here and one there. Ended up weighing in three. Two small keepers and this 5.85 LM. Dad caught it on a jerk bait in about 10 ft of water off the main channel. Water temp was around 46 degrees all day. That did win us big fish, but that's all we got. It took 14lbs and some change to win the tournament. Bowling and Barnett from Kingston had the winning bag. They had two beautiful smallmouths. Congrats to all the winners.
