Fished past 6 days with ron speed adventures on comedero.... My partner and I caught approx 670 bass....we had 57 over 6lbs,29 over 7 lbs,6 over 8lbs and 3 over 9lbs.....great adventure in every respect.....I've fished el salty,picachos. And Guerrero kin its heyday and never seen fish easier to catch or more eager to bite.....am in Dallas airport waiting on flight to Atlanta so don't have much time-got some interesting stories about the fish and the trip that I will share with you next week when I get back home...

Man, I'd be worried I could enjoy "regular" fishing after that.

Good point , after a trip like that it would be difficult to fish for Bass in these area Lakes .

some observations about our trip...
we started off each morning fishing top water ...my buddy caught several nice fish including an 8.5 lb and several 4-5 lb fish on a Yellow magic popper...I tried Pop R's,prop baits and a whopper plopper and only had a few small fish bites....usually I'd switch to a 5 or 6 inch senko or a tenn shad fluke after 30 minutes or less and start catching numbers of 1-2 lb fish but don't recall catching any sizeable fish early...
you could almost catch or miss a fish every cast if you threw a senko or fluke up on a bank in a few inches of water...it was almost like we were fishing a pond where the fish were starving and had never seen an artificial lure...
we would get bored at times and when a fish bit,we would just reel them up to the boat to see what size they were before we set the hook....and most times there would be another fish or two with them...same when we were fighting a fish to the boat...
back in early days of Lake Guerrero,it wasn't unusual for a fish to come off when bringing it to the boat and the fish would wheel around and bite the lure again...we had this happen numerous times last week typically with 1-2lb fish but we did have one instance of a 5lb fish come off of an underspin,wheel around and nail the boat again...
maybe one of the most unusual "fish catching" experiences I've ever had was when I hooked a 2lb bass on a worm,fought the fish to within 6 ft or so of the boat when the fish came off and stripped my worm off the hook....my buddy was reeling in and fixing to lift his lizard out of the water when my fish shot over there,grabbed his lizard.he jerked the bass into the boat and my worm fell out of his mouth......
majority of our 5lb and over fish came from 10-12 ft of water but we did catch a few fish over 7lbs in 5ft or less and several 20 to 30 ft deep....
we caught fish on a number of baits...maybe the most productive was a gambler senko,black with blue tail or watermelon red flake and a plum ole monster worm...we also caught a lot of fish on cane thumper swimbaits rigged texas rig or on an underspin...
the accomodations were fine.........fish,shrimp steaks and Mexican food was outstanding...considering the remote location,ron speed and staff have done a remarkable job with the lodge and the food... ...
lake is nestled in the mountains and is both remote and starkly beautiful...clear deep water with alot of steep rocky banks and bluffs,,narrow coves with steep walls plus underwater brush....I've got some pictures I'll try to down load and post next week...
P.S.any questions,I'll be glad to try to answer them... (.I receive no compensation nor discounts from Ron Speed or the lodge)
