#11821270 - 09/10/16 11:56 AM Lake Lavon Dam Catfishing?
James510 Green Horn Registered: 09/03/16 Posts: 4	Was wondering if anybody has had any luck fishing at Lake Lavon Dam. I'm using fresh cut Shad on a Carolina Rig and my past 2 trips I haven't gotten as much as a nibble. Any advice??

Until we get a bunch of rain no gates will be open so no fish. _________________________ Nick Henderson licensed fishing guide in DFW Fully insured for your safety and mine TexasOklahomaFishingGuide.com 214.901.2551 TCU class of 2019

Most fish I saw caught in spring were with 8-12 gates open _________________________ Nick Henderson licensed fishing guide in DFW Fully insured for your safety and mine TexasOklahomaFishingGuide.com 214.901.2551 TCU class of 2019
