Eagle Mountain guide trip 04/15

Had Nick Estanett family and a neighbors family and boy did I have a boat load. Had seven people but
what a fun trip. The fish were really scattered out and boy did I have to work to find fish. Never
did find them stacked up. The crew stayed with me and we kept grinding to get a box of fish. Ended up
with 124 on the clicker. All fish caught on ole ugly slabs and flies, All fish caught in 20 to 22 ft of water.
Picture below is of my crew.

Looks like your hard work paid off again Johnny

Nice work sir. Looks like a happy crew today.

We had a great time. Johnny was great with the kids. He worked hard to get us on some fish. What more could we ask for!

Nic

Lifetime Memories!

It looked like you had room for two more in that rig today.
It sure looked like a lot of smiles and I think I heard a little smack talk from those youngins.

You must have the patience of Job !

Thanks Nic. Nothing more fun than watching kids catch fish.
Johnny

Are you catching any football size sandies yet?

Not yet
Johnny

Great Trip. Lots of kids smiling. That is what it is all about.

Is it the low water or the cold winters? At least Eagle Mountain has a good sand bass population. Grapevine and Lewisville have definitely taken a hit.

I think bad spawns. No running rivers.
Johnny

Thanks Johnny. It is good to know their is lots of fish on Eagle Mountain.

I have not seen them spawning at the shoreline? Have you seen any?

No shad have to start spawning then they will be all over the banks. Will happen any day now.
Johnny

Thanks, we got good rain today.. I will stop by in the morning to check..

Lake is little up.. Still no Shad spawn..
