Went there last night and threw poppers and Jigs. Saw a guy haul 4 nice sized catfish. So many seagulls and if you get lucky you might knock one down with a jig lol! Did not see any catching Striped bass. I worked my way down the wall until I hit the bottom. I was just toying around, casting to where the OK water meets Texas, bouncing my jig around when BAM! A frigging Paddle fish the Goliath grouper of the red river. I thought I was winning the battle for a while keeping the pressure and bringing this cinder block closer to me, until this sucker decide to go for a run! Took half my spool and I am in no mood to chase him off the rocks. Gave me a good fight though. With half a spool of 35lbs. braided line left, I decided to cast another jig and bounced it off the bottom, then BAM! another frigging paddle fish! Just my paddle kind of luck, I decided not to fight this one and turn the drag off...he can have my jig not my line. I decided to call it a day, went home with a bruised pride and back lol. nice report. The website said they were supposed to cut off the floodgates last night, can anybody confirm this that might have been there. thanks! looks like the striper skunkfest is still pretty strong at Denison.

If it ain't yours don't mess with it! Need a friendly place to talk hunting? www.talkhunting.com

3 I landed 3 sliver and black striped footballs that were so full of shad I have no ideas why they would even care to hit a jig or top water. They are to fat to move.
