I didn't realize that 20 pound bags make for a top 100 lake these days.

Ray Roberts... You really hate that lake don't you Tom?!?! We spent a month practicing for Champs out there earlier this year and there wasn't a single day we didn't catch a 5+ and most days we felt like we ha put together a 15-20# bag. Obviously with the huge weather change on tourney day that didn't hold up but we still caught an 8 on tourney day. That lake is pretty good as far as I am concerned. The biggest issue is those fish have a history of moving more and faster than any other lake I fish.

WOW, Lake Texoma, ten times bigger then Lake Waco.
Seems like it would take forever to graph that lake.

Yes. Thank God our Club finally got sick and tired of getting our butts kicked there every year and took it off our schedule. I think the overall fish population there is below normal and it's he!! on a boat with all the timber. Unless you fish there a lot, it's brutal to pattern. The Elites showed that twice, especially on MLF. Was there a huge fish caught? Yes. Were there numbers caught? No. I can think of 20 lakes I would prefer to fish over the toilet that is Ray Bob. Although I do miss the guy here on TFF that used to get REALLY worked up when you called it Ray Bob.

No doubt...if you don't have your own "lanes" marked then running up North of Wolf Island is very dangerous. The fish population has made a huge rebound after the floods from a couple of years ago. If the grass will come back, I think the lake will be insane. The MLF deal showed out the way it did because the lake was low and it was late October when most lakes are tough because of turnover.

I think it is funny they put it higher than Texoma. I fish Roberts regularly and it is what I consider my home lake, but I always catch more fish at Texoma any time we go up there. The 14" size limit, killing the vegetation, and especially the tournament pressure have hurt Roberts big time! The floods were nice a couple years ago though, lots of brush to flip now!
See you on the lake and have a great day!

They listened to me. Usually takes well into 25+ to get a check on that lake.
