"I just wanted to share with you a couple pictures of CJ Blankenship and I. We won 1st place at the Cabela's KingKat Tournament on Texas Lake Tawakoni.
It had 37 teams entered from 8 different states. Fishing all week was extremly difficult with very few fish been caught. We almost didn't even fish but thought we were there we might as well seems how we made the trip all the way from Kansas.

The day of the tournament started out very sunny and cold but warmed up to around 60 with 5 mph or less wind. We started out fishing where we had caught some nice fish in 25 foot of water during our prefishing with out any bites and decided to move in to some shallower water close by. We started trolling in 12 foot of water moving out to 16 foot. All of our bites coming in about an hour and nothing from 10:30 on. We were using Team Catfish 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton spinning and casting rods set up with Sinker Slides, Sinker Bumperz, and 8/0 Double Action Hooks. For bait we were using fresh shad heads and gut pockets.
The Floating Fish Gripps make controling the 120.6 pounds of Blue Catfish that we caught really easy.
