If you haven't been there before, when you get there, you'll understand and say "ok, I think I'll just idle only"

Txduckhunter- How did you do on Gilmer? I have not been out there this year yet.

Fished 3-4 hrs. Caught 8-10 fish. Caught several on a spinner bait (they were SMASHING it) but ended up catching much better quality force feeding a frog. Had 2 in the 5lb range.
Not great but I'll take quality bites on a frog any day.

Did you figure out the boat lanes. There really is only one "boat lane" but from the ramp there are three north/south lanes cut out to connect to the one east/west boat lane.
