| 2009 CLASSIC CHAMPION |
| BOO HAGER |
CLASSIC RUN DOWN
2009 DOUGLAS LAKE TN WAS THE SETTING TO THE SHOWDOWN BETWEEN THE
TOP 10 COMPETITORS AND WHAT A CHARGE FROM BOO HAGER TO EVEN MAKE
THE CLASSIC CUT. AS BOO AND HIS PARTNER JEFF TROUT UNCOVERED THE
BOAT FOR THE FRIDAY PRACTICE SESSION THE DECISION WAS MADE TO FIND
THE SHAD AND LOCATE THE BASS THAT WOULD BE FEEDING ON THEM. THE DAY
WAS FILLED WITH OCCASIONAL BASS AND THREE BETTER THAN AVERAGE
KEEPERS.
SATURDAY LAUNCH FOUND US IN INDIAN CREEK WITH A COUPLE OF KEEPERS
AND STRUGGLING TO GET ANYMORE AFTER WIND KICKED UP. WE DECIDED TO
LOCATE POCKETS ON THE WIND BLOWN SIDE OF THE MAIN LAKE AND CHASE THE
SHAD. IT PAID OFF ON SATURDAY WITH TOTAL WEIGHT FOR BOO WAS 6# 2.2 OZ.
MOST CAME ON CB BITE.
SUNDAY LAUNCH WE DECIDED TO TRY TO DUPLICATE THE SHAD PATTERN AND
WITH LESS WIND ON THE LAKE WE THOUGHT THE BITE COULD BE GONE. (BOY
WAS WE WRONG)
WITH IN THE FIRST THIRTY MINUTES BOO AND JEFF WAS CULLING AND TRYING TO
IMPROVE ON THEIR TOTAL WEIGHT. THE CLOCK NEVER SEEMED TO GO SO
SLOW IN OUR LIVES. ALL AT ONCE THE BITE WAS OVER AND WE FLOATED
AROUND THIS POCKET AND ATE SOME LEFT OVER BBQ RIBS DONATED BY JOSH
SPEARS.
IT FINALLY SET IN FOR BOO THAT HE COULD HAVE REALLY LOCKED UP THE
CLASSIC TITLE WHEN WE ARRIVED BACK TO THE DOCK AND APPROACHED THE
SCALES. SUNDAY'S TOTAL FOR BOO 13# .6 OZ GIVING HIM A TWO DAY TOTAL 19#
6.4 OZ.
ON THE LINE FOR BOO WAS THE CLASSIC TITLE AND ALSO THE OPEN CLUB
TOURNAMENT AND THE BIG FISH POT. NOT ONLY DID BOO COLLECT IT ALL HIS
PARTNER "JEFF" CAME IN SECOND WITH 16# 2.6 OZ ON THE OPEN TX NEXT TO HIM.
BLESSED IS THE ONLY WAY TO SUM IT UP.....
BOO HAGER SAID "IT MAY NOT EVER HAPPEN LIKE THIS AGAIN BUT UNTIL IT DOES
HE WILL HOLD ON TO MEMORIES THAT GOD HAS BLESSED HIM WITH".
