So four weeks after open heart surgery and I am back on the lake. I started back to work last week. I decided to look for some small whites to start out since my lifting restrictions are 5 lbs. Boy, that was impossible after eight fish in less than an hour I packed up and went home beat.The ones that looked over my lifting ability I just let go with pliers in the water. It's sad when you can't find small fish. They are running 18-24feet and laying on the bottom. My scar is healing nicely, but my sternum still hurts quite a bit.

Glad you're doing well! That's a rough surgery...I am a nurse and take care of a lot of post hearts at Hendricks. Sorry you had a hard time finding small fish lol

I was on Lake Fort Phantom Hill. A West Texas mud hole full of fish.

Do you fish for the hybrids year round at Phantom? I started seriously fishing for them a few years ago instead of juglining for catfish and it has been a blast once I started eliminating the unproductive areas and finding the productive ones to check. Haven't tried much in the winter so looking forward to figuring out where they go. I'm betting they stay in the lower half of the lake from the island, points, and spillway and sailboat cove areas that I fish and from what I can tell, where you fish also.

I've seen you several times out there but didn't know it was you at the time. You pulled up, launched the boat and then started cranking the song "I can't stop this feeling" on your speakers lol. I love that song! bannana2
