Default RE: E.C.R.C. REDFISH TOURNAMENT

I use to hope forbad weather on tournament weekendsprior to the 2007 FLW Championship where I wasn't sure if I was going to live through the day or not!We wanted bad weather that weekend becausewe were fishing at home and thoughtwe could out fish everyone under the circumstances, but it was much worse than weever dreamed. Eighty percent of the field ran west where it was beautiful andwe came back to Pensacola where it was a monsoon with tornados!

Inshore tournamentfishing in bad weather can be very good and it's often easier to do well because much of the competition lets the weather get in their head. You may have to change your approach since sight fishing in the rain is impossible, but go where you've been seeing some fish and start chunk and winding or jig one of the bridges...

It's killing me not to get to play!
