Back to Back,to Back,to Back! Onion Creek Record Fest ! - 08/10/17 11:12 AM
Fished an isolated part of Onion Creek with Will,1960texan and the RECORD FEST was was on! We nailed four Onion Creek Records! Big Rios and Redear made the record books. We also had chances for a "Monster Bass",and several Bluegills! First record was a nice Bull. She was submitted for both the weight and catch&release records. Her length was 9.10" and the certified weight was .86 Lbs. The third record was a nice Rio caught on the fly by Will. The certified weight was .77 Lbs. The final record was a very nice Redear catch&release, with the length of 10.25". All record fish were released! The Rio weight and C&R record along with the Redear were caught on worms. Will's record fly rod weight was caught on a dark colored fly. We caught several more Redear all over 10" but could not get the weight record. We also caught several nice Bluegill and had a "SUPER BASS" spit the hook after a nice fight! We fished from 9am till 3pm. Paper work was sent to the Texas Parks&Wildlife Dept. Fish were hanging close to grass beds. A great Record Fest on Onion Creek! It just don't get any better!
