Oak 6/8 Open Div

[Wolfhound]

We started at 500am with a real foggy lake and ice cold water....ran west(very slowly) of port and set up in 75fow water and worked 75-100 fow for the first 3 hrs without a touch...45-46 deg on surface 39 down 50ft. Missed a small fish on dipsey over 150fow... Started to work out to 300 fow and went threw way points from last years open without a touch.  Water was 44 on surface at 300....now its 9am and we don't have a fish....What to do...deep or head inside...I decided to go back to the old way points throw a bunch of meat rigs on and boy did it pay off...We hit a 16#er at 210 fow on a golden retriever and twinkie rig 220 out on dipsey.  Then went back threw  the same spot and did another 16#er on a super bait/slasher rig.  Then took a laker on a spoon off boards with a couple splitshot.  Then missed another good rio on dipsy....had to leave to make weigh n...ended up in 1st place on sat!  NEVER GIVE UP!  Would like to have tried the spot today to see if they were still there.....Thanks to all the people who put this tournament  together it always a great event!
