Fishing

Rayburn is at 160.26ft, the water temperature has been around
89 degrees. The water is clear to around 2 ft.
This week the
fishing has picked up a little. We've had
a few more fish being caught around the grass and lily pads. We
caught several nice fish on frogs this week and I hope that's
a good sign. The weather has had a lot to do with it. How So? A
little north wind, some cloud cover and a little rain can make
a big difference when it comes to fishing. You have to be careful
and not let any big storms catch you on "Big Sam".
It can get pretty nasty out there in a hurry. The fish have been
buried in the grass and lily pads, staying put thru out the day
and not chasing much. Working the grass and pads early and late
has been the best with Frogs and Pop-Rs. Then move out to the edges
with senko's and wacky worms and just stay with it. Working
the points with a Carolina and Texas Rig will get a few
bites. Throwing a crankbait on the edges can produce a few fish.
Good luck.
The Crappie fishing has picked up some this week. Hopefully some
coolers will get filled in the next few weeks. Remember get the
kids out fishing and have some fun.
The Cat fish
have been doing pretty good this week with a lot of keeper size
fish being caught. If you haven't
heard about
The Bass Class on the water check it out on the website and give
me a call. Learn some new skills and a few tricks to catch fish
on any lake.
Bass Cat will
have a new boat in 2009; a 21 ft. We don't
have all the specs yet but if all goes as planned we'll see
them around the first of the year. I am hoping to get into one
myself. The Bass Cats are not just good looking, they are built
tough and can put on some speed. Get on down to Big D Outdoors
for a new "BASS CAT". If you haven't taken a
ride in one now's the time. Give Big D Outdoors a call at
409-769-3700 then get down there and check the little honeys out.
Let them know I sent you.
God
Bless
