Had a little fishing competition last weekend on Melvern lake. Joining us was Z Man Pro Staff Thomas Heinen.
Thomas is a very well seasoned fisherman already at a young age. He is fishing on the Washburn College team this year. He is a three time Non-boater Angler of the year winner in the Flint Hills Bass Club. Also, has represented Kansas multiple times on the Youth and High School side at the National level. When my boys joined Topeka Jr Hawgs, Thomas was a member. He has always been an awesome role model for my boys.
On Saturday, we decided to fish a Major League fishing format. Thomas and I versus the Twins, Nick & Kyle. The rules were every fish over 1 pound counted. Then if your fish touched the carpet, you would receive a 1 min penalty; which you couldn’t fish for 1 minute.
The fishing was a little slow the fish half, but if you stayed at it you could catch fish. At halftime, the twins had a little over 2 pound lead. Anchored by 2.15lb smallmouth Kyle caught. Never had I ever fished when half the people in the boat cheered when you lost a fish. I hope you enjoy the first part of video.
