Wylie BFL Practice

Over the past three weeks I have been spending time at Wylie preparing for the BFL this Saturday. It has been a struggle to stay on the fish - it seems they are here today and gone tomorrow. I have caught several nice fish on a jig but today the jig bite was nonexistent for me. My best day of practice was between 14.5 and 15 lb two weeks ago. Last week was decent but only early - I could not duplicate the pattern anywhere else. I put a lot of thought into todays final practice and made the decision to hit a few rocky places where I think they might stage looking for fish just moving up. I was able to find 4 places where I can get quite a few bites but the largest fish I set the hook on was about 2.5 or so. But I will be tickled to death if I can get 5 of those early. They were really biting right off the bat on these places so I feel good if they stay and I get the spots I can catch a limit. If so then a crank bait and jig will be in my hand the rest of the day. I will give more information this weekend on what I did differently and how the tournament turns out.
