2023 Bassmaster Elite - Santee Cooper. In practice I was catching fish shallow on a swim jig, frog an chatterbait. That bite really faded on me as the tournament started so I switched up and threw a wacky rig on cypress trees during the second half of day one and the entire day on day 2. Day 2 was much better. Had 20lbs and almost slipped into the day 3 cut. a touch deeper trees in 2-4ft with some eel grass nearby was key.

Bluebird skies, high pressure had the bite pretty difficult to come by; after trying several different techniques with little no success I switched things up pulling out a trench hawg but putting it on a light Owner twist lock hook and threw to areas shaded by the shore line foliage on cypress trees out in the water. This 4 3/4# chunk hit my creature bait on the fall in less than two feet of water. I had it tied on to 8# Shimano Mastiff flouro-carbon that has done great in handling big bass for me, with very little stretch it is easy to control the fish.
