That’s it! I kept seeing those lateral lines going by

Nice event it sounds like. If you do it again can I be added to the list?

Awesome day my brotha super nice video ....... one thing I did notice this time at barrett was like no other ..... no arguments, no bitterness everyone was happy to be there... 1st time I can actually say I caught over 70 fish in a day, stop counting around noon at 50 , and 1st time I can say a day ...

Great video, might be your best one yet?
Lake looks great, great fishing, great weather........ Awesome, happy for you!

Wasn’t the entry fee or cost to attend (fish) was about $300-$400 and was that per person or per boat?

That is a great video and captures the spirit of the day!! Have to add the black crappie bite was on too and what pretty fish!! And the 11 pounder was girthy!! Fortunate to catch her before she spawned out at least a pound lol. Thanks again Chris and we can’t wait to participate again.

Great video Chris! Thanks again for the invite. Awesome day of fishing and seeing everyone!

Great video and a great day on the water with a group of nice folks. Thanks for putting that all together.

It was RAAAD! Hoping to do it again next year for sure! Thank you so much for putting it together Chris, and for all the wonderful charity work you do. Awesome fishing and awesome people made for I day I'll always remember for sure.

Awesome video! I had so much fun at the event and can’t wait for next year!

Hey, so how does one get on that list!
What a fun time for everyone. That's the kind of bite we're all hoping for next month.

Well Junkie's you have been waiting and soon it will happen again.......the 2025 opening of Barrett. From all the reports that I have heard it should be another great season. PLEASE respect the loading and unloading zone launching at Piggy's.....that is the area close to the shore. Also it is no ...

Hey Tommy,

Got out on the water this past weekend with the charity Cast Hope. It was an excellent fishing day even though the weather was cold and windy, then nice, then worse, then something else. The fish seem to be back to proper clone size, I caught a lot of smaller bass last year when using ...

Now’s the time to start an online petition.

There was one done last year and while it didn’t draw much attention maybe we have time now?

It would be nice to drop off a box of concerned signed citizens to the city’s decision makers or to whom this may all be involved.

Hi all,

Barrett is open for 2025 and it looks to be a promising season. Got on the water around 0500 and pedaled across the lake. Air temp was a chilly 50F, but the water was 62.5 F. First fish for me came 0517, Chuck had already gotten several by then on a jig. I was using a texas rig lizard and ...

Jose let us in @4:30, line went all the way to the road outside. Mad rush to the water but everyone was friendly. Started with a couple on jig and swim bait, then it was top water ALL day. The popper when it was nice and calm, buzz bait through the grass area, crawler and frog got them too. No ...

Met Dave and Joe in line early, another crowded morning at Pigs. Decided to try Pine and it was a little harder than Hauser, but Joe found them. Headed back to Hauser and it was the popper, crawler,buzz bait,even got a couple early on a wake bait. Biggest was 5lb on a popper, a couple 3s and 4s ...

Interesting ( maybe ) that your post of catching 100 fish is your 500th post. I don't know why I notice things like that. You sure held a clinic on proper jig fishing. I really enjoyed your explanations and now that I have those secrets, I'm ready for the rematch.

Awesome!

Nice video brotha .... those last couple minutes was a nice touch
