I'm a relatively experienced tournament fisherman and i have my ways that i like to approach every tourny, certain baits i always have tied on, (like a size 10 mudbug in the ladybug color) certain bottom structure i like to look for and how much time i spend pre fishing a lake. I've done well following my "rules" i was just wondering if anyone has any unique tournament strategies that have served them well in the past. thanks in advance and good luck to all of you in any upcoming tournaments you may be fishing
