Tip of the Week - I won a club tournament at West Point last Sunday by fishing riprap. The lake was muddy and the water was dropping - there was a current moving all day. I had two keeper largemouth weighing 5.5 lbs. There were only three other fish caught, all 12 inch spots. Nine club members did not catch a fish. The key was to fish with the current and fish SLOW, barely moving a crankbait or spinnerbait over the rocks. I had two throwbacks and lost what felt like a good fish. ======================================
