a friend caught a monster on top of the wall and he had to walk it down to the bottom. while doing so he got twisted up with another old gentleman's line and the old gentleman argued for a good few minutes trying to claim the fish as his while his line is still out in the water!!

Combat fishing at its finest... I stay away from the TX wall... I'll fight the rocks and trees to fish but I'm not going to battle noobs and meat soakers shoulder to shoulder..

i had to leave the wall today as an older gentleman got tangled with my line as he was reeling in his fish. i had to give my line some slack in case the line broke and accidentally allowing his fish to pop off. well when i gave him some slack his fish went under water again and some how came unhooked and he got very upset and threw a fit. he almost tried to blame me for it and i wanted to ask him if he wanted his @ss kicked over a 10 inch striper. i'm so embarrassed sometimes with my own people

anyways...the fish report from this evening was slow at the wall. i was there from 8-11pm and the total number of fish that i saw getting pulled up were roughly around 5 or 6 total for the entire wall. the crowd started to slowly leave around 10 and the action didn't seem too hot on the rocks from what i noticed.
generators were off during the time i was there.

So I'm guessing you can get their from the Texas side now? I haven't been out there in ten plus years when I was young. Back then my dad used a surf rod with 3-4oz weight on a tri swivel with a leader. Would this set up still be adequate? I haven't been since I really started fishing as an adult. Any advice would be appreciated. Thinking of trying Thursday morning. Also is there anywhere I can buy shad or is a cast net my best bet?

So Texas side is out of the question? I can't walk over from ok side right I've never been to the ok side.... Sorry if dumb questions. Any help would be appreciated. If anyone needs lewisville questions answered I'd be happy to help. Do you think the main lake would be better? I oddly got Thursday off and I've been itching to catch a striper, and dang it I'm gonna try lol
