YEA BROTHER A LIMB THROUGH THE ROOF. Thats NOT maintenance it’s a major issue. Sorry to hear about that hope nothing got broken or damaged on the inside.
Lived on wheeler for a few years. It’s amazing how many nooks and crannies that are available, if you can find them. If you hit the right one at the right time it’s light out! Hard to do, though. Smallmouth hard to beat if in play in a multi day tournament. Don’t forget about the Elk!
Wheeler is my home lake, and I can confirm what you experienced. I fish it more than any other, and it is still my least favorite lake. It certainly has the fish, and they showed themselves when the grass came back a few years ago. Since then, the grass has diminished into mostly the vine-like trash you saw. I have often said Wheeler never seems to pattern consistently. 9/10 trips feels like a grind. Makes you appreciate he good days though. Good luck with your future events!
This is Falls for me in NC. It’s a good lake but the obvious in the fall isn’t necessarily what plays out! For example you cover 59 miles of water and find 4 key bites in one spot and a big bite somewhere else. Hard to pattern most times so I force myself to fish it more!
You are right about it being much different than the other TN river lakes. They tend to be much shallower and really current oriented. Even in the hot summer they can be caught in the dirt. The nothing looking flat dirt shallow looking banks can be the ticket this time of year.
You’re not lying about Texoma, except it’s tough all the time now. I’m excited for this time of year since I don’t hunt. Maybe it’ll be better. If you’re ever up this way, I have a restaurant, so lunch is on me. 🌮
Awesome video Todd. You know the drill. Hey can you do a video on Brandon Belt leaving?? I am wondering what your thoughts are from now on? Thanks buddy
I wished you had fished steep rock banks and dirt shallow in practice. In the fall, it can be either and I don't know why. I was hoping you could stay a day or two after the tournament and make them pay. I hope you go back soon and fish same conditions.
I have watched your Chick video several times, as that is my home lake. Great insights from your video. Chick a maga (the "U' is silent). As always, enjoyed your insight on Wheeler.
Unrelated, but you got anything new coming on Mach Baits? I think they're related to Strike King right? Specifically interested in the Mach Craw as a trailer.
Caught some but not really the grass there was horrible for almost every bait except a couple. Had to be completely weedless. Caught some on it but didn’t play. If I had figured out the other deal in the shallow dirt it would have. The shallow HH would have
I saw Laker catching them on Saturday shallow on a topwater. I thought to myself your going to shake your head and chuckle. 2 of the top 10 were doing what you do. There is too much water to look at. Shit happens, and it sucks the belts over. It was the best team tournament in the country sucks
I think it will take you 5 years on wheeler to figure it out. 2 . 5 day is not enough not scoping the whole time. ABT and the championship were won deep.
I think there was a chance up shallow, my buddy sure did think it could be and I believe him based on the fact there was a lot of water that was not pressured

We never quit learning regardless of the years on the water
I like your analysis I think your right and hope you get to go back

Yea I missed that
Don't worry Todd, you won't be wrong again for at least a decade.
But I probably will😂

Do you feel like the fish were relating to a depth? Like the first few feet regardless of over all depth.
Awesome video Todd. You know the drill.

Did the Hybrid Hunter play a part in the tournament for you? Do you think it can or should have?

Heck yea I voted. I’m starting to worry about you and your understanding of videos. Can you point out where I was negative.
@@toddcastledinefishing5924 the video was negative. You immediately started talking bad about Jacob wheeler and I had to turn it off.
