All of the above but Tilapia DD 22 or custom painter. Look for the drains. We found them so stacked last year we were hitting the fish in the side with a crank bait. You could throw th boat out the, but they would t eat it. And we literally had everything you had a above. The first day they did eata Magnun fluke nd the large storm swimbaits

If you enjoy jig fishing, bring about 20 1/2oz jigs. Dark green. Match that with a 4" chiggercraw trailer in pumpkin/green flake and hold on!

Flukes magnums in pro green and 5" in chartreuse.

I just returned from a week at Anglers Inn on Saturday. Obviously, things could change between now and your trip, but the lake is higher than normal for this time of year and we whacked 'em pretty good on chatterbaits and swim jigs in the flooded brush, spinnerbaits off the hyacinth lines. You can catch huge numbers on a texas rigged lizard or texas/wacky senko. We didn't Carolina rig a bunch, but it produced a few better-than-average fish. The Rico bite in the mornings was on again, off again -- one day it was exceptional, the next day just ok.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

The nets may be out by then... which is why I postponed my trip this year. I'm just tried of messing with them.

the nets were horrible last year at Pichachos but didn't bother the fish --- they never impacted Falcon fishing either ---just had to deal with it

Are the nets on a schedule at Salto
