Sam Rayburn has continued to rise this week to 164.73 but is showing
signs of slowing down. The water is still stained in the mid lake
area.
Sam Rayburn turned hot this weekend as the water temperature jumped
up into the mid 50 to 60 in some of the pockets. Lots of males
moved up along with some females. Working around the brush with
senko’s and Stanley spinner baits seemed to be the ticket
to catch a lot of fish. We must have caught 25 fish just moving
around jumping from spot to spot not staying to long anywhere.
Each pocket was a little different, some time the Stanley spinner
bait did the best and others the senko’s did the trick. If
the weather holds out the next few weeks will be awesome as some
fish move up and stage on points before they move up to spawn. The
trap bite will increase as these fish stage in ditches and drains.
Its looks like it’s going to be a lot of flipping in the
buck brush. Put on some good line and retie pretty often
so if you hang into one of those big girls she won’t broke
off. Remember these fish are doing their thing to supply
the lake with more fish for future fishing trips. Handle
the fish with care and get them back in the water as quick as you
can.
Crappie; There have been a few crappie caught in the grass on the
points off the main lake on traps. They are on the move back down
the river but it will still be slow for now.
Remember
the Sharelunker Program entries started on October
1 and run thru April 30th. If you haven’t heard, it encourages
anglers who catch a 13 - pound- plus largemouth bass to lend
or donate it to the TPWD for spawning purposes. There are some
great benefits doing this and one of them is that the angler
receives a fiberglass replica of the bass. There is a 24- hour
pager at 1-888-784-0600 Check out the Program rules at their
site along with the Benefits. http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/visitorcenters/tffc/sharelunker/
The new pontoon has plenty of room for everyone so get you trips
booked now.
God
Bless
