A decent run will happen with the rain this weekend presuming we get a decent amount. This warm winter is crazy. The Sandies this year are enormous 16-17 inches and fat fat. Warning: the hybrids are either 17.5 inches long or their 23+ inches. I hope everybody knows how to identify hybrids. Some of these hybrids are the same size as the magnum Sandy's. The hybrids are super fat this year as well. Two of the Sandy's we caught on the main lake yesterday were milting a little bit. The main school of hybrids are near the damn right now. So they're not in any rush yet to come up. It's usually March after a warm rain flood when they show. Reported in the striper section on yesterday's epic day. Warrior: Park on the bridge at 66, or pop the curb off of fire wheel/rowllet road south east side of bridge. . I'm pretty sure there will be trucks parked in one of those spots.

Its still early. They're staging in the deepest water of the creek, but aren't really spawning yet. Patience is key, it won't be long, my guess is maybe 3 or 4 weeks

For anyone doubting, this is from before the rain. Big fat females. Hubbard fish are HUGE this year. Some you can already squeeze eggs out of, and males milting all over. It doesn't always depend on exact time of year or temperatures. When they eggs/milt are developed/produced, they will make their run and do their thing. A little cold snap, or a less than ideal "cold" rain isn't going to stop them. They're not going to go, "Oh, carp! It's a little chilly. Guess I better turn around and stop developing/producing eggs/milt til it's a little more comfortable." Granted the eggs may or may not survive due to lower water temps, but the fish will still do their thing. There's been years that we were picking ice off of our guides between casts, and catching limits of sandies in less than 2' of water. Bottom line, get out and scout it after the rain. You'll never know until you see for yourself. And come check out the seminar at Bass Pro Garland at 2pm this Saturday. lots to learn.
