Myself and Fred "Rionator" fished a Hill Country Lake a few days ago and the bite was non stop. We boated well over 100 fish. 35 Fish were over 10". We only had a few small ones. Most of the fish were Redbreast. We also managed to catch some nice Bluegill and a few Redear along with some nice Bass. Fred just missed landing a Bass that would have gone over five pounds. Also included in the days catch were three nice Freshwater Drum. The Drum were all in the 3 to 5 pound range. All fish were caught using live worms and various Gulp products. Fish were in 8 to 14 feet of water. Bottom techniques, float techniques, and the drop shot method were all used. All fish were released to fight again. A Great day of fishing in Texas. It don't get any better! fish

In Africa live worms could not be beat when fishing for Tilapia.
Well done on a great day of fishing, so much fun when you're catching. Guess it is my choice but fly fishing for bream has come to nil now with the cold setting in here in North Texas.
