I have the day off tomorrow and am looking to go to Ray Roberts in the morning. I have not been on the lake in about 4 years so I was looking for any pointers or area's of the lake to start.
Thanks

Two weeks ago for me it was main lake points, rocky areas and dead weeds early afternoon on. I never passed wolf island north. They were all in 4-8ft range. I was using crank baits and spinner baits. Best fish and bites were around wolf island.

I'll be at state park in the morning aswell, I would recommend sand branch about halfway back squarebills natural shad patterns, spinnerbait, bladed jig and cover water till you find them they have been grouped up in areas my last few trips. You will catch alot of small ones, but the bigger ones have started showing up more regularly the last few trips. I think tomorrow is going to be a great day to fish I plan on fishing till about 4 or 5. With the weather moving in friday I think they will be really feeding up tomorrow. I have been wrong before, if you see me out there say hi I'll be in a white and silver skeeter zx250. My plans are to hit sand first thing and then head to wolf and Indian to do some exploring. Good luck to you bud!

Now that statement is funny, I'm far from being a stick on ray roberts that lake kicks my butt more times than I would like to admit. I have had a few good trips lately though and the lake is fishing really well right now so that helps.

Very nice to see some folks actually willing to help a fellow anger with some details on his day off.

...about halfway back squarebills natural shad patterns, spinnerbait, bladed jig and cover water till you find them they have been grouped up in areas my last few trips. You will catch alot of small ones, but the bigger ones have started showing up more regularly the last few trips. This is what I have found to in other areas like Indian, Buck, etc. I caught about 50 out of two spots on my last trip. It was similar the trip before with some scattered fish with a few areas were loaded. A small medium diver, shad color, like a Bomber 5A,4A or Bandit 200 have been producing a lot of fish too. The quality was a lot better last trip with more of them in the 2#-3# range showing up than the little bitty guys. Makes for a enjoyable day either way.

I fish the sanger side mostly and this pattern holds true there too. You can add flipping soft plastics and small jigs in the same areas if you like doing that as well.
See you on the lake and have a great day!

I also never claimed to be any good on ray roberts.
