Ran out of gas 5 minutes from the ramp. We made a gamble and the only regret was running the boat at too high of rpm to not have enough gas to get back to weigh in. It is a lessoned learned. We ended up getting towed back after weigh in from Abbott and Flowers, thanks guys. We ended weighing our fish in after the awards we had 15.58. Too bad it didn't count, would've put us in tenth for the day, keeping us in the AOY race. Mike and I made an 1.5 hour run at the end of the day to fish for 40 minutes way up river. It panned out and we culled 3 fish. What didn't pann out was the gas thing. We both have no regrets and would probably do it all over again. We the 0 for this tournament it takes us out of the running.
Hey man....ya gotta do what your gut tells you to.....it very easily could have been different....like you could have culled up to 21 lbs and made it back in time. noone would have known but you how you got it...if it worked out....Unfortunately, the lead foot ended up telling on you ! We noticed you weren't going real fast on your way up ....now we know why. Sorry it didn't work out....
