      I was hoping a random fish would bite my senko. I let that thing soak for awhile lol

    Never seen a tournament nap like that, loved it! Still great job on a tough bite. Just 1 fish away from 1st.

      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It’s one of the best. Sleep in the shade with a slight cool breeze on a hot day lol

  • @granvillej3316
    @granvillej3316 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Yes sir it was a though tough day and you expect to perform at a much higher level, but the fish did not cooperate with you, but eventually you were getting your some bites. You made fine changes to your strategy and you are really good at making quick decisions. Damian you got 5th place wow still a great finish thanks for sharing your day with us tight lines sir!

    Thanks for sharing! I really appreciate the summation at the end of the video. Really helpful to hear what you saw and what you did and most importantly why you made those decisions. Very Very Helpful for neophytes like me...!

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It’s nice to hear that the short summary at the end helps. Wasn’t sure if I was going to keep adding them to the video.

    McClure can be a very tough lake, but I fish there alot and usually do well, right now is really tough due to water lever rising so fast

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci

      Yeah when I was up the river. That current was pretty quick. Tons of water coming in, I’m guessing it’s the snow melt

  • @touieoutdoor

    Dead fish floating while practicing 😂 but nice video!

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci

      Man I wanted to fish it but all the dead carp was keeping me away. It had a terrible smell too since everyone was running over the dead carp when launching their boats lol

    Napping during a tourney. Nice. And that lake sucks. I don't ever go there unless I'm forced to.

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It’s usually pretty good but for some reason it was really tough this year. During prespawn tournaments we’re being won with high 20lb bags. But the summer bite is either fire or struggle there lol

  • @ianj3785
    @ianj3785 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Lol why didn't u weigh the dead one...

  • @richardhamilton3163
    @richardhamilton3163 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Great job! What is the reason for the carp die off?

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci

      Honestly I don’t know. Majority of them did have ich which spreads pretty fast especially in the warmer temps

  • @FishingWithAlexS
    @FishingWithAlexS Před 3 měsíci +1

    This guy 😅 guaranteed top 5 so he took a nap lol

  • @basschaser9356
    @basschaser9356 Před 3 měsíci

    What line are you throwing for that topwater and lb test?

    • @dthao92
      @dthao92  Před 3 měsíci

      I was using 50lb Pline TCB braid for my topwater
