Wow, what a day on Tawakoni! Had the pleasure of fishing with Marcus Banner aka Reelcrazy today and boy was it a treat. His buddy came down with the flu and could not make it, so it was just he and I today. Started out at 9am with more North wind than what was called for and I had my reservations for the days outing, but the winds subdued within an haour or so and it was game on! The hybrid stacked up and bit without much compromise today. We started out drifting and had several doubles, then a triple, and almost a quadruple hook up They bit so good, we had to put some rods back up Marcus caught a pig hybrid that wen a little over 9lbs and said it was his biggest hybrid to date. Then.......it happened.....we moved looking for big fish and he caught the largest hybrid any customer has ever caught with me

13.5 Pounds!



Followed by a couple more pig hybrid that went in the 9 pound range and 3 good striper. After locating fish this morning, I really dont think we ever went more than 5 minutes today without a fish on the line. It was an epic day!




On one of the best notes of the day, Marcus turned her back to Twok to fight another day. We held one shy of our limit all day in case we caught a good striper, but he wanted to let this trophy go

Son of a gun!!! That a heeeeell of a fish!!!
And I'd like to thank him for releasing it to fight another day!

Outstanding report!! You da man MATT

All I can say is WOW!

Well, you certainly have me excited about Thursday. The bar has been set.

Nice report Matt & one heck of a fish!!!

You said it all Matt! This is about the fourth trip I've gone out with Lakeguide and needless to say it was the BEST outing yet! He was slaying them early (with all that experience and all) while I could barely hook up. They wanted it still and would only tap it before they were gone. I got lucky on the big girl because she hit it once before coming back and bam. Drag was peeling and I couldn't even get a turn out of her. I said, "Matt I think this is the big fish of the day." The rest is history and memories. Thanks again Matt for an "Epic" day.

Way to put him on them!!! That is a PIG!!!

OMG! Told ya this is a great time to go! Lol.
CONGRATULATIONS!

Nice work and a very LARGE Hybrid! Very u let'R go! Save some for me when the kids get back to school!

Great fish !

I work out.

That is a very nice hybrid. Congrats!

sick slob of a hybrid...well a few of em were that day it looks like but that slob. nice!

Wow, congrats on a great fish!

All hail King Lakeguide! Epic!!

Awesome fish ReelCrazy!! And kudos for letting it go to fight another day Did Matt show you the Daisy Fuentes?

As soon as I saw those fish I thought about the Daisy Fuentes. Great job!

Thanks Dudes! If the Daisy Fuentes is what I think it is then yes indeed he put her [censored] to work today, and she worked well.

Thanks, guys! We were just there when they were there and they were biting. Sometimes I think there is a whole lot of luck involved in that equation

A lot of people think the Daisy Fuentes technique is a little off the beaten path, but I swear some days it will outproduce any other method out there for big fish

Well, I am about to head out there and try it again. Ya'll behave today

Awesome fish! Does Superduck have any youtube video of this Daisy Fuentes techinique, I am interested.

Great trip guys. What is this Daisy Fuentes technique?

I am sure yellow speedo Threeseas and Moes will post videos soon on this technique. Right?

Dang, Matt! Those are some pigs! Hopefully we can get out with you soon.

WOW!!!

Good Lord, that is an enormous Hybrid!!

Cant wait untill Friday. See you then Matt. Way to let her go ReelCrazy that would have been hard to do.

Had another great day on Tawakoni today with Aaron Z aka StriperSnob and his buddy Rodney Lowry. Ended up the day with 83 on the clicker and only a dozen sand bass I had my best hybrid this morning in a long time. A little over 11 pounds on the scale. Caught on a crappie rod and 8# test, what a fight Only had 3 or 4 striper today, been looking for 'em but they keep hiding....

Oh sooo sweet. Very nice Matt.

Love it. Love it. Love it.

woo dawgy!

Excellent Matt! That's also my personal best 13.5. Congratulations to you both. Looks like you guys hit the mother load... Happy Fishing.

Well Done Matt! The wife made me go out and buy another camera do to me leaving mine on your boat. I offered to since we needed an upgrade. She's happy.

Nice work! I will be out there tomorrow. Look for my boat in my signature and say hi. This will my first outing with all new electronics including 1198 and 898. Cant wait.

That is a BIG fish!!!

Whoa, those fish need to sign up for Jenny Craig!!
Nice to see u well and fishing again AZ. How is your left shoulder feeling?

Matt save some for friday. See you then.

Daaaaaamn!! I will be glad when i can quit worrying about these deer. Looks like you boys are laying waste to the big boys on Twok. My wife is after me to take her to catch some of them big uns!

Today was another good one, will post some pics later. Fishing with Filletmaker and crew tomorrow. Pray hard tonight and eat your Wheaties Pat

I HEARD!

Az/ striper snob, put some u dem big azz fish back for me!!

I gave up Deer Hunting on the last week to fish in this outstanding weather. i'm Pray and eating my Wheaties Matt see you in the morning. I'm going to fish Saturday also but havent made up my mind yet Tawk or Hubbard. Who's going where?

Pat has been eating wheaties for several days now.

Those are some pigs........... and I am talking about the fish.

Thanks sea pro, actually the fishing jacked it up a little so I need a shot but 83 fish is worth a needle all day

Good job Matt.

This week has continued to be amazing. I'm not sure if we have boated 100 fish each outing, but I bet it has been close each day. Yesterday I fished Dan Lynch and crew and had a 4 man limit by 11. Today I fished Filletmaker and knocked out a 4 man limit by about 10. It has been smoking hot! Best fish yesterday was an 11 pound stripe. Today had a 10.25 hybrid and three nine pounders

Pat got some good pics today, I think I have fish slime on my phone lense, everything came out blurry, sorry bud

I thought I had a good day, till I saw you're fish Matt!!!! Those were on steroids, I saw them in person folks.

You da man Matt! Good seeing ya Pat.

Matt OMG man get that phone cleaned. I do have all my teeth with no gaps. Any time 4 guys have there limit by 10am and catch and release fish the rest of the day you can say it was a super great day. I will try to post some pictures later in the weekend.
Thanks for a great day.

Sweet Fish!

Fishing buddy, Curtis and I are going to give Tawak a try Monday. Looking at catches like these here just makes me want to go NOW.

I managed to "intercept" one 10-lb. striper just upwind of Matt yesterday morning as he was "knocking them up" for his crew - one hit, one fish.

It was a beautiful morning to be on the water and the boat motor was running great for not having been cycled in a few months.

Nice fish!
