The Holmans fished with me this morning for Roark's eleventh bday!! They brought his buddy with them, and let me tell you they were a couple of Fishin dudes!!! At eleven years old they could use a baitcaster better than a lot of men I know. I assumed with a couple of younguns they would want to go sandbass/hybrid fishing. Boy was I wrong!! They let me know right quick they were catfishermen and wasn't interested in catching scaley, baitfish!!' We went to drifting and they went to catching!!! Most were eater blues with a channel or four mixed in. Big fish of the day was a 23# blue!!! Heck of a day on the water!!! Book your trip now!!

Nice job professor!!
Are you marking fish and likely spots then drifting across them, or just throwing out the socks and seeing what happens?

Blues, I try to find the bait and fish. We drifted the same 1/4 mile track all morning. Didn't anchor cause they wanted the bait moving. I personally would rather anchor on them but sometimes the fish don't take the memo of what I want to do very seriously!!!

I get how it works and I've caught a lot drifting, but like you said I prefer to anchor.

They look very happy, good job!
Any ramps open yet, I saw the lake level was down some? Not that I could go, my boat is still in the shop.

Good deal. The cats are all over the place on Lewisville right now - and gobbling up anything the gets near them. Every one I caught yesterday had a full gut.

What is too deep right now. Headed to the lake today, but I am sure I am going to see an entirely different lake than I am used to seeing.
