The family and I got here today about 4 or so we made the tackle shops and went out at about 8 and did not even go a 1/4 mile and my son said lets try that point. We did and did not leave. Nothing big but a lot of fun. Looking forward to the morning!!

My brother and two friends drove over 13 hours straight thru from LA and started fishing at daylight yesterday. His summary of the fishing was,"It is retarded down here. We caught over 60 fish, with a 6, two-7 + and another over 8 lbs." They went down blind and started fishing points near deep water flipping bush with big jigs. Hard to beat sore wrists and bruised ribs.
I gotta go soon.

Well we went out this morning and wacked them pretty good nothing big but lots of 3 and 4 lbers with a two 5 lbers. We just got done with fresh red snapper off the grill with fries and blue bell . Oh and a Corona and a nap.... Life is good!! Not that it makes much difference but we are shallow cranking and chatterbaits.

Slept in this morning, fished from 930 to 200. We had 12 with the biggest 5.5lbs. We did more riding around in Mexico than fishing. Emmah, my 7 year old had two alligator gar, both were over 15 lbs. Not a bass but a heck of a fight. The fish we have caught came on a Santone jig and a DD22. Now we are back at the hotel pool, had some Churchs chicken. Bout time to retie and go out for round 2. For those of you that know me, know that I will speak the truth (good or bad). So on my updates I will keep it real. With that being said, this place is plain awesome!

Well, we ended up with over 40. Not stellar, but not terrible. I blew it on what I think was 2 big fish, broke 30 lb power pro. The 25lb Seaguar is holding up ok, but must retie often as it takes a beating down here. The trusty old Big Game in 20 lb has actually been the most reliable. The fish bit the entire time we were out, and they bit a buffet of baits. We have some nice pics and videos, which I will post after we get back or I will ask Jersey Dan to help me tomorrow.

Well, chillin back at the swimming pool. We found them good this morning. Had an 8, two 7's, and 30 plus more (most around 4 and 5 lbs). All but a few on a Santone Jig. Next trip I am wearing gloves so my hands don't get so chewed up. Gonna go retie and prep for another round 2.

We had some topwater action last night and this morning and a ton of little fish. Then we moved down lake and caught quiet a few on cranks again. Wife had one bush her that was over 8 we just could not get to it in time before it sawed her off. But none the less this has been a great trip down here. My son and wife have caught a ton of fish and I have not done bad either. I know I could probably catch some pigs deeper but it is just hard to leave the 5 lbers on the bank with the family in the boat!!!lol I am pretty shure if I went off pitching and deep jig fishing they would hang me. Well we are going to chill in the room for a while and get ready for the evening trip .

Well we just got back in the room from the evening fishing. And to say it was awesome would be a understatement. Son had his best 5 fish were probably about 14 lbs, Wifes best five close to 20 and my best five close to 25. Big fish today was just under 8. Man I love this lake!! Sadly Tomorrow is our last day but it has been a great vacation. Amistad, Rockport, and Falcon!! Life is GOOD Oh and one more thing. I have a tuff wife. she got a hook from a crank bait in her thumb with a fish hanging on the other end buried deep. We cut the hook off she pushed it thru, we cleaned and put antibiotic on it. I asked if she wanted to go in she looked at me like I was crazy, heck no. I had the big fish after that and we had two triples after that. Got to love a tuff wife!! ML
