Anyword on coleto creek, headed out there next weekend and i have never been there before...

i havent been there in a while but i would imagine that the grass has started to grow back up pretty good. I always had good luck with a watermelon red fluke around the egdes of the grass. Hope others will chime in for you.

Fluke, thats kinda like a bass assasin right? Just texas rigged or what?

it is made by Zoom. You can do a google search for a picture of them. I usually fish them weightless with a 3/0 EWG hook.

We did pretty good on topwater around grass edges in the morning

Anyone Go Recently ?

Fish are biting great right now and have been for 2 months now. We fished our championship tourney Sunday and won the tourney despite losing the 8 lb fish 20 minutes before weigh in. We thought we lost the tourney due to that fish getting off in the grass but was surprised to win. Then went back out yesterday and had a heavier string off the same area in 2 hrs. Fish are shallow and can be caught on anything that is weedless. We caught several big fish in less then 2 ft of water even in the middle of the day. Good luck!

joe good luck up there. catch some bigguns.

I had a blast on this lake, it is beautiful... the wind and rain did not stop us from finding some good fish... all i can say is good thing i dont live closer ( my wife would end up leavin me... )

Glad you had a good trip mikey. Coleto is a jem for a smaller lake. how is the grass doing down there. i havent fished it since i sold my boat a few months ago.

Grass looks great on the cool side of the lake, the warm side the grass is all brown and does not look very healthy at all... water on warm side was close to 90 and cool side around 85. there was alot of exposed matt when we first got there and then it rained all night and the the matts were all covered by about 2" of water... it was neat!

True words.

my wife and i had a good trip to coleto last weekend. lots of rain we caught 3 striped bass and 2 blue cats all from the bank. we used live minnows. one of the cats was the biggest fish my wifes ever caught so she was happy. cant wait go again.

Glad you had qa good time Joe. I have a tounament there next month. Coleto is a great lake.

yea it was nice.

Lake is only 2 ft low now and the fish are biting big time! We had an easy 20 lbs with our best 5 yesterday before the front. Nearly all the grass is below the surface now. They were crawling on the bank and were eating everything that would not get stuck in the grass. It does not get any better then that.
