A Good Tuesday Bite! Ponds&Dunlap!

Myself and Robert "Dafanman" tried a new spot this morning. We arrived at a pond at 8:30am and the bite was good. We caught some nice Redear in the 8 inch range and several Bluegill in the 7 inch range. Robert caught a nice bass about 3 pounds. Several more Redear and some small bass rounded out the catch. We were pleased with the quality of fish in the pond. We then had a super brunch at the Union Street Station in New Braunfels. We finished the day fishing an old spot on Lake Dunlap. We landed a bunch of nice Bluegill in the 7 to 9 inch range and Robert nailed another nice Bass. All fish were caught on worms with both float and bottom techniques being used. Fish were in 3 to 6 feet of water holding by structure. We left em biting. All fish were released to fight again. Fishing on a Tuesday with a good friend.It just don't get any better!

This was certainly a good day of fishing Banker

Bass and assorted sunfish and a big break off..... It was a good day to be on the water

Ready to do it again soon

Yes Sir Robert it was a GREAT DAY to be fishing for sure! Will not belong until we are at it again!

Nice fish guys. Got to give the Union Street a try! How was the current on Dunlap! I guess water is still being let out on Canyon?

It just don't get any better than that...nicely done

Nice Mr. Banker. How was the water at Dunlap? Trying to time my next trip to lower Guadalupe (lower than New Braunfels). Thanks for the report.

Nice catching, Chuck & Robert!

Bob

Thanks guys,

The water at Dunlap is still stained a weak chocolate milk color, and still pretty good current happening.

Gitter: You will enjoy Union Street

Thanks Guys for the replies!




Side Note: The water discharge from Canyon Lake has been slowed down by the Army Corp of Engineers. The currents should start getting back to normal on the river lakes as well as the water clearing up. Each day conditions should be getting better! Also the Guadalupe will be a very busy place this weekend. It's already the Fourth of July!

Sweet!

I wonder if the water coming out of the dam is as cold as it normally is. If it is, I know the trout guys will be thrilled.

Since the Corp. has been letting water out of Canyon the water temperatures on all of the river lakes has been much cooler than normal. This has been a factor in the sunfish bite for sure. The good news is that the Corp. has stopped letting water out of Canyon and things should start getting back to normal.

Great looking fish, good place to eat as well. Next time you are around New Braunfels try this place for some great food, friends of our family own it.



Its located on 251 S Seguin Avenue.

They are open Wednesday through Sunday I think.

Thanks "Hunter498" for the reply! Will give the Alpine Haus Restaurant and Winegarten a try!

That is good news for sure. Still no Rios on Dunlap! Been seeing some of your post about the colder water conditions on Dunlap and the other river lakes. Do you think this will have a longer effect on the bite and the Rio population?

It defiantly had an effect on the bite. As for the Rio population have to wait and see.

Awesome post guys! Great seeing a good Dunlap report. Looks like the river lakes are settling down and the bite is picking up. If only the Rios would come out and play!



Side Note: Chuck: Do you think the colder water will effect the rest of the summer Rio bite? I have only caught a few Rios this year off of the river lakes.

Thanks Curtis for the reply. I think the Rio bite will be on and off the rest of the season. Me and Mike "USMC-GY" did manage to catch a few Rios the past week. Two small ones and Mike nailed one about 10". The water is defiantly clearing up and looking good on the river lakes.

I'm ready to come back to the Guatalupe Chuck , love that Water Clarity. May have to pull the Crestliner up spend a day Perch Jerkin!

The door is always open for ya Mutt. Also PM me your new number!

Have not caught many Rios on Mcqueeney. Hopefully the bite picks up but I am like you. I think the patterns are messed up.

Remember Curtis. "Keep fishing and good things will happen"!

Yep. I totally agree.
