Thanks for the videos. I watched one that led me to the black whopper plopper. I won the first hour on Friday with it. Good stuff. Glad you cashed a check. And boy was it raining... Can't wait til next year.
Congrats on the check! I want to spend the entire weekend on the lake.. I was surprised nobody rents bass boats or john boats!! Iv looked everywhere for a small boat to rent for the weekend!
That rain was a soaker, for sure! Glad you stuck with it. If memory serves me, last BIg Bass tournament, you were kinda of in the same scenario. You had a couple that were not HUGE, but you didn't weigh them in right away, and you found out later that they would have cashed a check (I believe). Anywho, great vid and glad you caught them when you did. You are right though, at about 10am that bite just shuts the heck off, like a switch is flipped or something. Congrats!
Dude the rain Friday morning was brutal. I caught a 2.62 around 10 and rode him till last hour only to get beat out. He would have taken money any hour on Sunday. Lost a 4lb one way up river in the mud in Sunday. Congrats on the check. Thats always the goal... great video
NC Bassin I’ll be fishing the one at Smith Friday and Saturday. Didn’t make it to Norman, might make it back down there for the BFL in February next year
NC Bassin thanks bud, congrats again on the nice spot. Yeah it’ll definitely take over 6lbs, even during the fall. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a 7lber
Same thing happened to me Saturday. I wasted a bunch of time throwing the buzzbait. Only caught 2 on it then picked up a ned and started getting bit consistently. Nice job on cashing a check though. Thats a fun formatn
That was exciting to watch. The gamesmanship and strategy involved makes it really entertaining. Congrats on the win-cash that check and get you some more big worms.
@@carltongarris4681 🤣🤣 1000 people couldn't catch that and that would be a $46k boat there's no way. I need your scale lol. Still even 3lb is impressive today after the lake has been hit so hard the weights were low today
@@landonmoore76 its just a guess but didnt event get in the boat spit the hook at the boat but it was a good size. An all days when you dont have your camera. Bit ot is some big ones in there just have to be in the right place at the right time.
Lost 2 4+ pounders yesterday at lake keowee that would have won it by 3 pounds, but finished 20th with 7.75 pounds out of 120 boats in the 1st high school event of the season, and fished hartwell today, but it was super tough and couldn't catch hardly anything, but I did see them 2 4 plus pounders
So the second spot was 3.06 correct? It looked like a 3. Hey at least ya got a check. Better than a goose egg. My worm bite is non existent right now lol
Weighed a 2.9 in the 1-2 hour and missed a check by .09 ounces. Never fails everyone waits to the last 2 hours to bring there fish in and the check weight goes up.
Thanks and no that was it I only caught 1 fish (that wasn't small) on day 2. So many boats out there on all the spots I wanted to fish so I went and ran new water. I couldn't catch anything all day. I run out a whole tank of gas
@@landonmoore76 man that sucks but you did good.. made money and enough footage for a good video is a win in anybodies book. Was thinking about doing this tournament but I don't have a lot of knowledge of norman yet and someone I ran into praticung Thursday told me it was a 250$ buy in.. guess he was wrong. Anyway sorry for such a long response here but I didn't hear about this tournament till the day before (from that dude with the wrong price quote) and I didn't know about the Tuesday tourny till i watched your videos.. How do you keep up/ find out when these tournaments are being held... any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks man
Most of the tournaments are posted on Carolina elite series group on Facebook. Alot of the tournament are just word of mouth also. This big bass tournament is huge there's adds everywhere and all over RUclips. There's a 1000 people that fish it over a 3 day span
Always nice to cash a check and achieve your goals!
Thanks it was a fun tournament and accomplishing goals is what it's all about
Congratulations Dude!
Thanks it was a fun tournament
Thanks for the videos. I watched one that led me to the black whopper plopper. I won the first hour on Friday with it. Good stuff. Glad you cashed a check. And boy was it raining... Can't wait til next year.
That's awesome that plopper can really catch them. $1000 is a good pay day. Next March the fishing will be alot better
Good work! Way to pound it out in the rain!
Thanks its was it was pouring down but that made the fish bite it seemed like
Congrats on cashing in. Keep up the good work. Just ordered one of the reactor 1.5.
Thanks and awesome that reactor is a good squarebill you won't be disappointed
Congrats on the check! I want to spend the entire weekend on the lake.. I was surprised nobody rents bass boats or john boats!! Iv looked everywhere for a small boat to rent for the weekend!
Someone should rent bass boats but I think all they rent are pontoons. The lake is packed on the weekends but early morning is good
@@landonmoore76 what do you think is the best bet for inflatable kayaks, north lake norman or badin lake?
Both wouldn't be ideal but up river on Norman would be good not much boat traffic up there
thank you! gotta find somewhere to take an inflatable and catch bass!!!!
That rain was a soaker, for sure! Glad you stuck with it. If memory serves me, last BIg Bass tournament, you were kinda of in the same scenario.

Yes big bass went the same way last year and rained alot too. It does seem like everyday at 10 the bite shuts off
That’s for showing your lures again.
It surprised me what they were biting. I should have just gave up on topwaters but never did
Dude the rain Friday morning was brutal. I caught a 2.62 around 10 and rode him till last hour only to get beat out. He would have taken money any hour on Sunday. Lost a 4lb one way up river in the mud in Sunday. Congrats on the check. Thats always the goal... great video
Man that 4lb would have won most hours on Sunday. I heard Sunday was tough. I thought Saturday was too but alot of guys caught alot
@@landonmoore76 5 fish was all I caught Sunday. It was a true grind. Literally had 12 rods on the deck of the boat by the end of Sunday.
Wow that's some rain
It was raining like it was a hurricane when I got there. I was like am I really fishing it in this lol
@@landonmoore76 sheash man I hear that....u braved the elements!
Good try man..thx for sharing
Thanks I'll do better next March
Win that boat!
I wish I did it was a fun tournament though
Nice spot, getting your money back is what it’s all about. I’m looking forward to the one on Smith Mountain coming up
It's a fun tournament and you're always one bite away. Are you fishing it?
NC Bassin I’ll be fishing the one at Smith Friday and Saturday. Didn’t make it to Norman, might make it back down there for the BFL in February next year
Awesome good luck at Smith Mountain I hope you win that boat. I'm sure someone will catch one over 6lbs like no one could at Norman
NC Bassin thanks bud, congrats again on the nice spot. Yeah it’ll definitely take over 6lbs, even during the fall. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a 7lber
That's awesome. Congrats.. I will be trying the same thing this coming weekend at the Lake Murray Big Bass tournament.
Awesome good luck I know the bass will be alot bigger on Murray
Way to go bud checking from Randolph co
Thanks it was a fun tournament
Way to go Landon, thanks for sharing man
Thanks it's a fun tournament
Same thing happened to me Saturday. I wasted a bunch of time throwing the buzzbait. Only caught 2 on it then picked up a ned and started getting bit consistently.
Nice job on cashing a check though. Thats a fun formatn
You did way better on topwater than me. It's a fun tournament but the lake does get crazy crowded
@@landonmoore76 is it one man per boat or can you have a partner?
Anything changes on them Tuesday morning tournaments let me know. I will be there next week
They should stay them same 7to12
NC Bassin dang that’s some fast work. I am requesting an Tuesday off.
Good job. I was wondering how it went. I was on the lake sunday didn't catch a dang thing. Except a bluegill. Lol
Thanks yeah so many bass being caught and people fishing is making the lake tough right now
good job man! I weighed a 2.90 and got 11th i was bummed but its hard to get a check!
Wow a 2.90 that missed a check really sucks that would have made it about every hour. That makes me feel better about my 2.60 missing a check
That was exciting to watch. The gamesmanship and strategy involved makes it really entertaining. Congrats on the win-cash that check and get you some more big worms.
Thanks I did not expect to catch them that way in the rain. I will get some more of those worms for sure
Right on man!!! KVD don't win em' all. Hang in there and do what you do!!!!!!!
Thanks it was a fun tournament I'll do better in March when it comes back
Great job getting a check! Definitely some strategy involved on when to weigh in!
Thanks I'm starting to think it's more luck to weigh in at the right time lol
great job! Dont forget about me one day when youre a big timer!
Haha you'll make it big before me. That DC reel has been awesome thanks
My dad caught 2, 3 pointers but our broke down so we only got to turn one in lol I caught nothing but two little ones
Both those 3lb bass would have got a check for sure that sucks
The creek you was in an caught the 306 i caught a 6-7 pound on the wacky rig today but didnt fish the tournament.
There's no way possible you can catch a 7lb bass at Norman lol
@@landonmoore76 man im telling you it was huge at least 6
@@carltongarris4681 🤣🤣 1000 people couldn't catch that and that would be a $46k boat there's no way. I need your scale lol. Still even 3lb is impressive today after the lake has been hit so hard the weights were low today

Sucks you lost the big ones but 20th is a good finish out of 120. Early fall can be really tough
So the second spot was 3.06 correct? It looked like a 3.
Hey at least ya got a check. Better than a goose egg.
My worm bite is non existent right now lol
Yeah that second one was fatter. I wish I could catch them on the chatterbait like you. I really thought the chatterbait would work but it didn't
@@landonmoore76 almost lipless and jerk time!
Weighed a 2.9 in the 1-2 hour and missed a check by .09 ounces. Never fails everyone waits to the last 2 hours to bring there fish in and the check weight goes up.
Wow 2.9 is a good one makes me feel better about my 2.6 not making it. That is fish it should have got a check
@@landonmoore76 thanks Enjpy the videos. going to give it one more try on Murray Friday
So that was just day 1 right?? U doing more videos of the other? Congrats on getting that check man.

Most were shallow 2-3ft
$$$$
Not much lol after gas I probably broke even lol but I'll take it
