4th: Faircloth Looked at 3 Toledo Bend

Faircloth weighed three sight-fish today, but doesn't plan on being able to do that again tomorrow.

"I felt like if everything went right I could catch 18 or 19 pounds, and I did a little better than that," he said. "I'm not real sure what's going to take place tomorrow. I don't anticipate as big a bag as I had today, but you never know.

"This place is full of big fish and it can happen here."

He caught a 7 3/4-pounder at 8:00 – it was a fish he'd found on the final practice day. He was forced to quit sight-fishing before noon.

"It was pretty much done by then – it just got too windy. We're at the very tail end of the spawn and there will still be some come up (before the weekend's over), but at the end it's usually not the real big fish. Most of them spawn earlier.

"I'll try it again tomorrow if the conditions are right, but it's supposed to blow 20 mph out of the north. I can't go looking if seeing them is impossible." Read More

 
3rd: Faircloth Met own Expectations
> Day 1: 5, 23-10

Todd Faircloth thought he could exceed the 20-pound mark if a few things fell in his favor, and that's just what happened.

"I felt like it was very possible," he said. "But you never know with a deal like that, when you've got that many boats in there and you're fishing around a lot of people." Read More
 
6th: Faircloth Heavier than Expected

Todd Faircloth exceeded his own expectations today even though he didn't get a truly big bite.

"I felt like I could catch 15 pounds, but it just so happened that I found a couple that were a little better," he said. "I had one 4 1/2-pounder and the rest were all 3 to 3 1/2 pounds.

"I did have some marked that were gone – the males were still there, but not the females. It doesn't seem like the females are sticking around. They're doing their deal and then leaving." Read More

 
Smith Mountain

Todd Faircloth of Jasper, Texas, sixth after Day 1 with 18-9, said he would also continue to bang the beds, but will search for other options as well.

"I'm going to fish while I'm looking [for beds]," he said. "If I catch a fish and it clues me in a little bit, maybe I'll run with it. There's still a lot of fish left on beds. The problem is here is more of the fish are 2- to 3-pounders. So if you find a 4-pounder, that's gold right now."
