I believe tbautoman on this site was involved in the organization of the wet tournament, not sure if he still is or not.


I appreciate that. Not sure if I will fish many this year but it will be good for future reference.

Around 2005 to 2009 I fished a few Wednesday evenings and some of Densiks also. Plus his dad and uncle ran weekend day tournaments. I fished Tuesdays with the club I still belong to after that period. I fished a Saturday club and opens on our weeks off from 1991 till about 6 years ago. When Zeke started BITE I fished some of those on Saturdays. Then I fished Sundays in Massachusetts in a trolling motor only club for a bunch of years. Monday to Friday I built stairs as a subcontractor in 3 states after going to the gym at 4. At peak I was fishing about 40 tournaments a year. I am 67 and wonder where all my energy went.

My grandson asked me if I need a partner for any Thursday tournaments. He sells Jeeps for Mitchell in Canton.( shameless plug--my GF picked up a 2025 with 2k miles from him last week) He also has his realtor license in Massachusetts and Thursday is his day off between the 2. As soon as I straighten out my motor I am going to fish the Thursday at Congamond evening tournaments with him. The Tuesday trail is invitation only. We have 15 more tournaments scheduled. He fished one with me 3 years ago. He had never made a cast before. One of the first fish he caught he reeled it right to the tip. I just happened to turn around and he had the fish almost to my chest. The tournament was on lower Bolton. I found a weed patch that was loaded with bass. He outfished me and we finished a few ounces out of getting paid]]> Tue, 26 May 2026 08:37:54 EDT https://www.ctfisherman.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/1859905#Post1859905 Congamond Thursday evening tourneys??? https://www.ctfisherman.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/1859767#Post1859767 mattmann7

Sorry it took this long to reply. Between funerals, lawyers and doctors I have been bound up. I am not set up for lead for Arky jigs. If I had a double of the mold I could do it. Try on Bass Boat Central. There are a few really good custom jig makers on there. Most run adds on the home pages for each subject or you can search on the dedicated add page.]]> Tue, 19 Aug 2025 18:21:03 EDT https://www.ctfisherman.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/1857135#Post1857135 Southern New Hampshire Smallie Recommendations? https://www.ctfisherman.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/1856422#Post1856422 mattmann7

I have caught “five” 9 pounders in my life time. I believe Shaw grew up in Florida. I am not giving any advice to a guy who has probably caught hundreds of bass that big Don.
