Although I don’t think anyone froze with record setting high temps!
A Big Congratulations to Chris Simmons and partner on winning The Freeze your Butt Tournament today on Pool 4 of the Mississippi. They had a winning weight of 27.36 pounds. Prescott Baits Ringer Paddletails put them in the the winning circle! Congratulations! http://www.prescottbaitcompany.com

Most of you older Idoer’s would know him as Red Neck Jr.
Thanks BK! I don’t get on here as much as I used too. It wasn’t freezing but I could have done without the wind. That’s the 2nd tournament I’ve ever won and to do it against that crowd is something I’m not likely to forget anytime soon.
How do you rig the Ringer Paddletails? 1/4 jig heads?
Depends on the current, I run tru tied tackle jigs for plastics. But could be anywhere from 1/8th to 1/2oz depending on current speeds and technique, I run Prescott baits for pretty much all my plastics. Pitching, vertical jigging, dragging, and dubuque rigging
I will add some of our fish came on blades from tru tied as well.
Some nice fish congrats.
Congrats to you and your partner. Those are some fatties!!
Congrats!!! Those look like balloons ready to pop.
Who was the salty one talking smack about the tourney afterwards? Feel like they deserve some public shaming 
Was Dave your partner this year ?
Most of you older Idoer’s would know him as Red Neck Jr.
I was gonna ask if that was Redneck Jr. Nice fish!
Yeah, he’s not so “Jr” anymore. 
Was Dave your partner this year ?
No his name is Greg perz. A buddy I made fishing in AIM the last couple years. He hates the river, maybe a little less now though.
Congrats Chris and Greg! Your dad must be smiling. Savor the wins. Especially a pool 4 win. Lots of really good sticks you guys beat out last weekend. Wish I was there at the weigh in to have seen it.
