fished the rattle trap tourney on rayburn sunday. finished 20th out of 186 boats. pretty good since that was the first time my boat has ever been on rayburn. of course everyone was using rattle traps. fished in 3-6 ft water with grass/ pad stems on bottom . we caught 7. best 5 went 12 lb.

nice work! cant wait to get out there! i love that place

not a bad performance. always wanted to fish rayburn

its a lot easier to get around than toledo. but there are no buoys for boat lanes on rayburn like there are on toledo. so u kind of have to be careful esp on north end of lake. it was a big forest just like toledo.

My buddy finished 4th . . . If your headed there don't forget to get one of these . . . Rayburn Red Craw

Sometimes I will change it up and throw a Strike King Silent Red Eye... sometimes it makes a world of difference if there is heavy pressure in that area.
