      Fished a tournament on April 2 ended up catching 4 keepers for 10lbs and 2 shorts. The 4 keepers and 1 short were all on a Jewel finesse jig fishing riprap with laydowns on the main lake and just inside a pocket. Also caught 1 short on a 110 as well as lost one early. Ended up coming in 4th. First was 16lbs Second was a little over 11 Third was 10.03 and I was 4th with 10.01. Overall a decent day extremely windy which limited fishing areas.
