Had a great Wednesday afternoon with my guest .. Catch and release trip .. It was non stop action for over an hour and some huge white bass .. All fish where caught with SSS 3D eyes slabs from www.moestackleshop.com in 24 ft water .. I have openings in July so give me a call !!

Lake Ray Hubbard has been fishing pretty well this summer and have been lucky enough to have a bunch of catch and release trips . Top water schooling started over a week ago and the whitebass I have been catching are pretty shallow.. There also has been schooling in deep water (30 + FT ) throughout the day but those fish are being at the right place at the right time kind of deal.. I have been catching my fish on Tail spinners and later slabs in 5-15 ft water . I switched over to soft plastics this weekend and did really well, the fish are chasing 3-4 in shad and have used a � jig head .All lure from www.moestackleshop.com .. Saturdays are a little tougher because of the boat traffic, if you are reading this and do not know.. it�s really counterproductive to drive around in 5 ft of water with your big engine running looking for schooling fish .. get upwind in the deeper water and just drift across the shallow water .. Hybrids have been tough to catch , I have heard of really late afternoons of some being caught.. but I won�t be out there in 100 degree July heat .. I have some opening and school is fixing to start.. we are starting at 6:00am and hopefully off by 11:00 am before it gets too hot and the recreation boats get to much to handle..

Lake Ray Hubbard summer time hot weather report !!

Temps got really hot this week , we went from schooling white bass the week before to suspended deep water fishing . The full moon played some havoc on the morning bite , although I heard the afternoon was really good if you could stand the 105 degree temps .. I had a really tough early morning one day , but picked up late morning . If the traffic wouldn't have got so bad we could have done better that day . Early in the morning was marking fish suspended in the 10-17 ft range in open water moving really fast .. We used 1/2 jig heads and 3 in Co Co Moes from www.moestackleshop.com , as the morning moved on they would suspend about 6 ft from the bottom and a toss and long lift caught fish . I started doing some trolling that was really effective as well .. Lots of catch and release lately and I kinda like that on hot day .. Lol .. School is fixing to start and I have some days open in August so get the kids out !!! We have been starting at 6:00 am and trying to be back at the dock by 10:30-11:30 am before you burn up ..

These pictures are making me wish I could be back out on the lake! Looks like the fishing is hot down there!

Hey man! If I recall you stopped making flies and went off to school? Is that right or am I just crazy? My wife and I LOVED your flies!

You've been a busy man, Twin

JV has the fish locked in and his clients are cleaning up. Summer is almost over, not much time left to get the kids out for catching and some family fun.

Lake Ray Hubbard is still producing fish !!! The weather change with the clouds and the rain scattered them for a little bit and disrupted the thermocline but with the sun back out .. its set back in just a little deeper. Fishing should remain stable until we start get cold fronts in mid to Late October. Not much early schooling going on but when the sun gets up they are settling in on the typical late August bite .. they want a lure horizontal not so much vertical.. if you are a master at the mepps technique you could do well.. Most of my guest are not.. so we troll. I was catching good on slabs untill the extreme heat set in.. The hybrids are still scares for some reason but I have picked some up here and there � I have open Dates in September so give me a call ..

You the man on hubbard, Twin!

Nice JV!

And there you have it. If you want to catch fish this time of year, GO WITH JV!

All of the locals are struggling to catch fish including myself. JV has them dialed in. It amazes how he constantly produces good catches.

The fishing on Lake Ray Hubbard remains steady.. I have been blind casting early morning before daylight and picking up nice fish on top waters lures and Co Co Moes with a � oz head and 3 inch body. When the sun comes up I have found schooling fish in many locations.. small lures are the ticket, they are chasing shad fry and when they school they do not want a big lure.. When that stops they are holding really tight to shallow structure and have trolled up large numbers of fish really utilizing my side scan to locate the fish .. the weather is cooler and the lakes are almost like a ghost town. The top water should continue and get better .. I will start beating shore lines in a matter of weeks.. the fishing is good, give me a call .. I have fished Lake Ray Hubbard for 20 yrs and have been guiding for over 10 yrs.. don�t forget for all your tackle needs and lowest price in town.. check out www.moestackleshop.com












These pics are a little hard to see because of the glare.. but if you are not familiar with your side scan.. you are missing tons of fish.. go out .. by yourself.. drive around and learn your electronics.. if you start catching fish .. look at your graph to know what it looks like..






I was moving a little faster on this one


One time they moved over to the right side, I adjusted my path and started catching again

Awesome si pics and early fall tips, Twin brother

The full moon scattered the fish a little bit this week , but the big ones came out to play .. the weather has been crazy as you know with the cool then hot as heck . The schooling didn't happen much but should return with the moon change .. once we get some cold front in the fish will go crazy 😊 I have some open dates so give me a call .. fishing can be fantastic in the fall !!!
