Eat at "Kevins" on the southwest corner of Fm 2305 and road that crosses the dam (? fm 2271 ?). 2305 is the road to TLP. Back home from hunting pheasant. Lots of fun Time to find the hybrids again. Belton walmart fishing dept is poor. Yes there is an Academy in Temple Ih 35 in belton to 6th street exit rt at mcd about 5-7 miles lt at light 31st street rt on marlandwood(2nd light on 31st) will be on rt. I only use walmart when Academy is closed.

Thanks deckhand, I'll get some grub at Kevins today.

Hey Goorge T if you like Bar B Que try Clem's it's inside the C Store right across the street from Kevin's.

Has anyone been to the new tackle shop in Killeen? I can't remember the name of it but, I heard an add on the radio. It is located south of town on Hy. 195. I guess I will go check it out next time I'm out that way.

F4F & W4F you guys took off to quick we moved in closer to the bank to 30 to 34 feet and it got good for about an hour.

Looks like you folks are keepin em stirred up. Sandy, that's a huge bass. They should be fattening up for the spawn pretty quick.

Like deckhand said, it was a good weekend in the panhandle chasing birds. Boy, was it cold. 21-22 degrees each morning with quite a bit of remaining snow from Wed night. It was Levi's first hunt and he hung in there like a trooper. He finally got a solo opportunity at a beautiful rooster Sun morning and dispatched him like a pro with one shot.

See ya'll on the water.

Great Pic, but seriously, Im just glad no-one mistaked him for a pheasant with that hat on. LOL Should been wearin a Burnt Orange one so you could see'em!!

I Just Knew it!!!! We should have moved in on the Action... Swiper Striker, you remember what happened the last time we got close to your boat... Slabndeep, I thought the people who left caught all the fish in that spot... I was wrong, bet you had a great time busting jaws.. we checked the flats but nothing there, across rogers park we caught some whites and the hybrid. I thought about moving close in towards the bank but Kristy was getting cold so we moved... that didn't help her one bit, just got colder..

MrG, that's a nice pic of Levi, as that his first? Get it mounted.. My first is mounted and my sister have it in Hawaii...

GeorgeT, looking forward to meeting you, I'll be on the lookout for your craft..

Welcome back MrG. Beautiful bird Levi.

That LMB that Pauline caught was a nice fish, but not "Might Mo"

how are you doing in Chezk.

No burnt orange allowed in the G house.LOL

Thanks Yellowcat. I was just curious.

Boat ready, just waiting on a truck to bring it back from Mississippi, just in case anyone cares. Feels like I lost my dog!!

I care Sharc. When my boat was at the boat hospital getting fixed I felt like a fish out of water.

why not MrG?
after all horns are the way to go.

Has any one been out to gravel crossing lately?

Are you talking about the one up Lampasas River?

Jan/Feb would be a good time.. I think it's kind of early, but who knows with this warm weather.. I can imagine how low the water is trying to get up there with a boat..

yes, the one on the river. how is the fishing out there? I am thinking about going out this afternoon.

F4F check your PM.

His mother would shoot him before he would ever leave the house in burnt orange. not lol

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Friend of mine fished Belton today, and sent me this picture from his cell phone. He caught 25 keeper whts and 3 keeper hybrids on silver slabs in 30 to 35'

Nice, why can't we catch any when we fish Belton Lake.....

W4F, is rusty and not helping out on the situation (fishing)..

Man, that cooler looks like it have been well used.... either that's one huge Hybrid or it's a small cooler....LOL..

Great catch..

F4F check your PM.

anyone catching anything?

I got to get in about 3 hours of fishin' today. Had to make a quick trip of it as my wife had surgery couple of days ago and didn't want to stay away too long.....but it sure was a pretty day and my wife being the sweetie she is, insisted I go. Only took home one keeper hybrid and one nice white bass, both caught downriggn' at 32 feet. Was getting some more hits/bites but had to get back to Austin. Hard to pull away when it seems like they're starting to bite but them home sweeties need attention too. Saw two other boats that looked like they were slabbin' or jiggin or such. Both at GSC. One in about 18-20 ft of water the other in about 30-32 ft of water. They were regularly boating small white bass. One fellow I saw was catching two at a time with what looked like a rig with two jigs. I was just doin' my normal trollin'. If I'd stayed longer I think I would have boated some more.

Looks like the GSC have been producing some whites lately... Hopefully there's some left come the weekend...
