headed up to mansfield this morning about 6.my father and i fished until about 830 until it started to rain and got 5 bass for about 7lbs. We went to the truck and waited the rain out and went back out to try improve our catch.we fished until 1230.We ended up with 5 bass for 9.4 lbs overall. we caught about 12-15 bass with 1 pick. sorry no pics.not to bad for mansfield "the toilet"  everything was caught either on a senko or a rattle trap burning it  |

Nice job Senkobandit. You're right, not too bad for the toilet.

We've had this discussion before,... on here as well as another forum,....
Whatever it is,..it's certainly NOT because they introduced pike!!

I too made it out there for the canceled Mansfield T... Dipped in at 6am, I think right alongside SenkoBandit... I remained on the lake, though the rain, until 11am. Was able to catch my limit by 8am, and culled my three dinks (possibly caught 20 or so fish all told). Not as good a day as they had, I guess I had 8 pounds or so... All cookie cutters in the end. Pic is the sample of the 5 that I had. Still thought it was fun, and that is what makes this place a competitive tournament in my opinion... They may not be big, but they are there...
