That sounds like a blast. I need to get out there and get my boys on some action like that. Maybe Sunday or Monday.
I haven't been on Lavon in 25 years but live pretty close. Been wanting to put the boat on the water there. I've read "Hybrid Point" referenced several times. Where is Hybrid Point?

Hybrid point is a nick name given to this point. If I'm not mistaken it was named by Tarponfly - Lavon fishing guide. I could be wrong though. This is the spot as I know it. Purple dropped pin marks the point. The area along this bank running east was where I was yeaterday. 12-21ft of water was the depths I was in. Less than 10ft and I was catching a lot a small fish too deep and numbers dropped off. Good luck.

That is certainly a great day Fisherman13. Glad to see the bigger ones are joining the party.

Thanks for clearing that up Fisherman13.
I think I'll put in at that ramp on the west end of 380 bridge and head south down the east side of the lake. I'll be in a Voyager Super Fish pontoon with a Honda 115. Hopefully I don't hit a stump! Just wanting to explore and learn a little about the lake. I'll stop and do some fishing around Hybrid Point. Hopefully we can find some surface action. The boys would love that. If I see your yak I'll holla.
Thanks again.

Best time to go is early 7am to 11 am. I would launch at least at Little Ridge by the power plant, its a free ramp..... That ramp north of 380 is long ways away and there are some really thick trees and stumpsout there. I won't be out this weekend, its my weekend to work. Monday is a maybe.... might stick to the ponds that day.... just have to see.

Mainly undersized White Bass on a Slab and Jig Rig. Later, switched to a Slab and Tube Fly Rig and caught more White Bass. Still no Keepers as well. Caught them trolling as well as sight casting to schools. Also, worked the point off Brockdale as well as another point further up the cove near a Marina. Fun stuff! Today's Video.

Here is a video I made with my cell phone inside the water proof case from my trip at Lavon. I had issues with my folding net.... not sure how or why but it was folded over the wrong way maybe my kids were messing with it, but I couldn't get it locked in the video but I still managed to keep the fish hooked and didn't loose them. I had casted my slab then I had a bite on my other rod in the holder and it came off so I casted it back out and put it in the holder. Then picked up the slabbing rod and lifted on it twice and hooked up second lift. about the same time my rod in the holder got hit. So I grabbed the net to land the first and I had serious issues. Finally I got the first fish netted.... (I used the net on it cause I didn't want a fish with a treble flopping around in the kayak). Then I got the other rod and it had 2 fish on, one dink and a 14" sandie. Music is just to cover up me talking and jabbering on its what they had on the you tube capture app..... http://youtu.be/40gb3-92ViM

Went Kayak Fishing for White Bass at Lake Lavon Sunday. Caught a number of undersized White Bass but we did end up with seven Keepers and two Yellow Bass. We trolled the rigs like we normally do, and then switched over to jigging over schools that were lurking off one of the points. All the Keepers were caught jigging! Fun stuff! Sunday's Video.

Nice meeting you out on the water Saturday. I was in the Big Rig and dragging butt after the long paddle from Lavonia. Even though they were small it was still a lot of fun.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Looks like a pretty good day out there! You can take a little super glue and glue you plastics onto the crappie jig head and they will stay on a lot better. I tried on one of them and it worked. I got tired of the little fish pulling it down or off. I usually cast my slab and jig rig out and jig it back to the kayak it covers water good. On my other rod I just cast it out about 10-15 ft and let it sink and then dead stick it the action of the waves jig the rig up and down for me. I been using 30lb power pro braid on everything cause it has 8lb diameter and I don't have to worry about breaking off. Its been working pretty good so far so I haven't changed a thing they seem to like road runners too I get most of my big fish on the road runner or the slab. Hoping to go again Friday! And get on some sandies again! Hoping to have some company next trip as well!

Yellow Bass for me this round. Put in at Lavonia Saturday and started out trolling Sabiki Rigged Crappie Jigs and a Slab. Had strikes soon after launching from the boat ramp. Had a fun time; did have to deal with the wind and waves but luckily the anchor helped slow the drift so we could keep fishing the "money zone" several casts before having to re-position the kayak... Fun stuff! Yesterday's Video
