I'll be out there tomorrow. This rain will surely have the water nice and stained, plus they are releasing water pretty good. I'll post in this thread how it goes.

First fish last Thursday 20" 5 lbs 3 fish caught. Second fish Sunday 21" 6lbs 3 fish caught that day. All from my new 40th anniversary heritage bass tracker. Yes I had fun. Water temps were 58/62. Fish caught shallow. Less than 10'.

I'm going to fish Grapevine for the first time in years this weekend. Are all the ramps open?

Fished for 3 hours today. Caught 4 and lost 2 more. Biggest fish was only 3.25 pounds. All fish were caught in 1 to 4 feet of water. Clarity was ok around the mid lake but really dingy up towards Marshall Creek. I never went to the lower end of the lake but I imagine the water clarity is fair. Northern coves hit 65 to 68 degrees. Main lake was 61 to 63.
I would like to thank the jackwagon who left his cast net under the water at the Murrell Park dock. My 250 Sho got dinged up pretty good by the net weights. Hopefully my prop and motor are ok.

A buddy and I fished Grapevine on Saturday and did pretty good all things considered due to the wind. We hit the damn at first light and caught three and lost what would have been a 5-6 pounder at the boat. We caught 8 fish total. The water was rough on the main lake and main points. Coves and sloughs were much better. Water temps back in coves was 63-66. Stained as usual.

Me and a buddy also fished on Saturday but stuck mostly to the South shore mainly because of the brutal wind and unfamiliarity with that lake. Caught a single 3 pounder and that was it all day.
