The second day of practice was only a little better than the first as far as wind. The wind was supposed to be 10-15mph today, so I figured I would try and get out on the lake. Today I had company in the boat; Kevin, another FLW Tour Co-angler, was fishing the Stren on his drive back to California. He practices with Gabe for the Tour events and had asked Gabe if he knew anyone fishing the Stren that he could practice with. Gabe asked me and I told him of course. Kevin met me at the ramp at 7am and we headed out the river and onto the big pond. Last year Dusty wanted me to try out around Fox and Grenadier Islands. The wind was blowing too hard last year on my only day of practice, so I didn't get a chance to go. We drove out there and started fishing, and fishing, and fishing. 5 hours later, without a single fish, I decided I had had enough and drove back into the River to expand on what I had figured out the day before. The first hump we pulled up to that looked right and we each caught a decent keeper. We fished a few more hours, finding a few more humps that held fish. I was still catching them on a tube, but Kevin was catching them pretty good on a wacky rigged senko on a dropshot. We had to end the day a little early because my batteries were completely drained from fighting the wind and waves.
