Hit the Brazos today to do a little Bass fishing and to try out my new Airpro Max seat. The seat was awesome and so was the fishing. The release was at 227 cfs, which is perfect. I didn't travel to far from the bridge. The water was cool and a bit stained.
I started out catching a small spotted bass on a crank. There was top water action going on like crazy, I suspected sandbass and I was bass fishing so I ignored them for a little bit, then I couldn't take it any more. I proceeded to catch Striper and Sandies till the cows came home, cast after cast.
I caught several largemouth, smallmouth, green sunfish, drum and gar. I figure I caught 100+ today. It was not stop action. Best largemouth went 4 #'s, Striper up to 3#'s and Sandbass up to 2#'s. The gar were pretty big and lots of them too. The smallie was about half a pound and put on an aerial show. The best part was I had the river all to myself.
I was using a Phenix Recon lite action rod with a Diawa Pixy 68 SPR baitcast spooled with 6# test and that made for a fun setup. Every bait I threw I got bit.

I believe this is one of your favorite places to fish.
I loved the last video you shot there.
Since you are familiar with that part of the river, I'd love to go with you some time.

The PK setting and that kind of action-it just doesn't get any better. Congratulations on hitting the lottery. Also had a good day yesterday below Granbury with multiple 2+ pounders. The upper Brazos is back!

Sunday evening I got a late start, and only had about an hour of fishing light so I didn't go up as far as I wanted. First time i'd ever took a skunk there. But, it was my own fault. Especially with freshly caught Shad. First time I had ever fished it that late in the day also. I'll prob head back Saturday morning. Great report!

Thanks G Love, I have been skunked a couple of times myself. I can't imagine what it would be like using shad.

Headed to Austin this weekend. I actually don't get out to often with kids busy schedules. When I go it's usually during the first part of the week as that's when my days off are.
