Rackley Makes top 40 for Toyota World Championship
The third stop of the Carrot Stix PAA series went to Toledo Bend in Hemphill, TX.  With overcast and misty weather in practice, Toledo was able to show off some of its big bass with lots of big sacks being reported.  On Tournament day, it was a different story for Rackley, who found his pre fishing pattern was not materializing on game day.  " I went to my honey whole that I found in practice and was expecting to get at least one big one ", said Rackley.

Frozen on Falcon
Rackley had a middle man finish on the Texas bass factory, Lake Falcon.  It was the first stop of the American Fishing Series, once known as the FLW STREN Series.  Conditions turned awful when Zapata, Texas saw the coldest weather it had seen in many years.  "I honestly did not expect the tournament to continue under those condition", said Rackley.  A strong 30 mph North wind with 40 mph gusts turned the lake into an ocean with waves over 10 feet near the dam.  "All my fish were down south and I thought I could tough it out and be a hero, but it was a mistake to even try boating in those elements", explained Rackley.  After loss of equipment and taking boat damage, Rackley opted to make a small run up the river and try and locate some smaller but safer bass.  " I am disappointed that I did not do well.  However, I was ok with coming back home with all my body parts still working, even without a paycheck."
