Alot of different techniques are working right now on Twok. Tailspinners on shallow humps will get ya super mag sandies with a fat hyb/striper here and there. Bouncing deadsticking jigs in those same areas tend to target hybs/striper. When the birds work its easy while it lasts but you can't rely on that everyday. Loons are here so when they are feeding take a look. Sometimes they are feeding with hybs and stripes. Today we caught fish using all the above methods but deadsticking stole the show with nothing but quality 6-9lb fish coming to net. Today was mostly striper but did manage a few fat hybs like this one...


Next week is wide open. Come getcha some. cheers

Nice report, Trent. The dead sticking is almost here on Lewisville. They seem to want just a small movement with a slab. I just can not break the code with plastics yet. They will tap it and I miss them. It is only a matter of time.
You are lucky to be able to fish Tawakoni. It is full of huge fish. They catch and keep them before they grow large up here.

That deadsticking jig approach is stellar. One of the best finese approaches that I have seen. It works time and time again especially drifting over humps and schools of shad. I am looking forward to my turn.

Great time was has yesterday. Stripaholic had 4 stripers in the boat before I caught one. He is definatly the master at deadsticking. Went out thinking it would be a tough day after the front, and the fish were hard to find. Also the bite was very light. We missed at least as many as we caught. All fish released to fight another day. Thanks Trent for a great day.

Thanks Don. You might try to lighten your rig for plastics. You'll miss some thats just part of it. Ninja quick reflexes on the tap is key. thumb

Did some deadstickin last year for my first time at Twak. There's definitely an art to it. I missed a whole lot more than I caught, but it was a blast.
I'll have to hone my skills out there soon. Nice report and fish Trent!

I'm ready for the December gathering. Can hardly wait. Good friends, fishing, a little drinking, a little more drinking, some more fishing, little more drinking...getting buzzed just thinking about it. Of course that would be after the fishing.

Topwater on tawak with 6 to 8 lb stripers ,hybrids and mag sandies coming to net too good to miss out. Sounds like a country musical.
