So we fished the MLF BFL Regional on the one and only... Lake Eufala!!! Wasn't super excited to be back here as this fishery can be a VERY tough place to land... Last trip here we were out way deep but this tourney I couldn't really get comfortable in the "depths". I wound up staying shallow and fishing around the mats of grass located in the backs of creeks. I would parallel the mats and fish buzzbaits and even a popper alongside the mats and take advantage of fish that were set up under the mats ready to come blowing out and chase a bait... We caught the biggest fish of the entire tourney at 7.6 pounds... ON A POPPER!!!! It was awesome! Feel free to reach out with any and all questions!
