Like a 21 inch Bachman Lake Channel Cat, perhaps? Yesterday, by the Rec Ctr, in front of the Cypress Trees, 5 ft from the bank:



It was a white 1/4 oz rooster!

Nice surprise fish! Still no more crappie? I've only managed 5 more in two trips. Only 1 over 10".

No. Victor caught 75 on Tuesday, over by the big parking lot across from the Chevron on nw hwy. He only kept a limit, of course. Then he and kingof fish caught a few, but I don't think any keepers. I only managed 1 six incher late at night. That's it.

Hey I'm sorry for accusing you of scamming tff. I took my buddy out to Bachman and after we didn't catch anything he got mad and I showed him the forum and he brought up the possibility that you could be scamming everyone, but after further investigation I realized there's no way you could do that hahaha. I let my buddy wright the post and I didn't look it over. I realized why we didn't catch anything. Looking back at it, the first time I went I didn't use those rooster tails. The second time we went there was a bunch of kayakers so the bass probably got spooked. It was also pretty cloudy and windy. I feel bad for accusing you of this and hope you can forgive me.

Oh heck reagan, its no biggie. I have been attacked on here a lot worse than that over the years. But, if you want to add more skepticism to this insanity, You should see the channel cats they are hooking or pulling out as of this week, ON PLASTIC WORMS!! That fishery can really get weird sometimes. And if that wasn't enough, i caught a few bass on rooster tails earlier this week, some of which had bloody, beat up tails, indicating that they are still fanning nests!!! This weather has really got em screwed up!!!!! But man, are there some monsters roaming the banks on the lower end of the lake.

I live very close to that lake, and I just LOVE IT!!!


Just to give you an example of size fish we are still catching within 5-10 feet from the bank. This Bachman regular Victor, he caught 12 in these size ranges one day last week. They were all caught on baby brush hogs.

Are they still biting those rooster tails? I've been thinking of going back and trying a crankbait on some of those limbs in the water. Can't believe they're still making beds!

I met Victor a few weeks ago out there. Good dude! He has pics of a few monsters caught at Bachman. I hate that place and it hates me back! Doesn't matter what I throw I rarely catch anything but dinks. You two need to be Bachman guides! LOL!
