This has been a super year so far for catching some very nice sunfish including these two record Warmouth. Myself and Rick aka Catyakker cought these two Warmouth this month while fishing Lake Nueces. Rick caught his on the fly using a wacky worm while I caught mine using ultralight tackle with the bait of champions "WORMS"! Rick's fish weighed .50 Lbs and mine weighted in at .63 Lbs. Both fish were released to fight again and the paper work was sent to the Texas Parks&Wildlife for record review. Rick's fish was for the Fly Rod Record and mine was for the Rod/Reel Record. Fish were caught during the morning hours hanging by thick grass beds. Fishing the Nueces Canyon and catching record Warmouth! It just don't get any better!

Wtg guys! Congrats on the new records

Thanks Leo for the reply! Always love fishing in "God's Country"!

Looks good. That little body of water has been on my list for awhile. Tried to fish it onc time right where you guys are but there too many kids. I think I would like to drop my little pond prowler in and try that bluff right across from where you are there. looks fishy. Maybe the vegetation is not so thick on the other side.

Thanks boocat for the reply! That park is busy this time of year especially during the weekends. The weekdays are not that bad especially in the morning. During the late summer after Labor Day and into the fall you usually have the whole place to yourself. Several friends of mine have fished Lake Nueces from kayak and small boat. Some did really good and others did not. The water is usually always crystal clear! Love fishing that place.

Thanks Gar 1970. These road trips are getting addictive. Trying to figure out where to fish and what to use on never before seen waters gives me a new prospective on a sport I've loved for over 70 years. Gotta love it.

Those are some pretty looking fish there! WTG on both records

Thanks Yesenia for the reply! The Canyon has some super beautiful sunfish for sure!

Real beauties...great colors...

Thanks Vogey! Looks like you had yet another GREAT day on Fayette!

Thanks Ledeez for the reply!

Nice fish!!

Great job!!! It's hard to find warmouth and even harder to find them over 1/2 pound.

Very nice Warmouth.
