A guy at Olsens the other day told me he caught a big (12lb+) hybrid on EM and that another guy he knew had a young daughter that caught a 6lb hybrids--sounds like a load of ^%$^% to me since hybrids have never been stocked there according to TPWD but what do ya'll think?

i agree. there are some nice magnum sandies there, but i have never heard of hybrids or striper. the guy may have caught a 12 pound drum

however, keep in mind that marine creek, as well as some other lakes i fish at, do not have record of sandbass being stocked, but believe me they are there.

people may catch some and throw them in EM, I don't know why but its possible.

Since Bridgeport has them it is possible for them to get in the river and come down to e/m. I have heard of an occasional one being caught. They have never been stocked in E/m.

good point.

on yea, forgot that the hybrids SWIM. HAHA Silly me.

EM lake record hybrid 11.9 lbs. BP lake record hybrid 10.5 lbs. If TP&W stocked EM with hybrids, it would be killer. Mucho bait. They come from BP as Johnny said. Mostly, when it floods. Been a long time for that tho. I caught hybrids on EM in the late 90's. Also caught em in the river towards Boyd. Have not heard any recent reports of hybrids on EM. Could be true tho...

I caught a 10.3 in 02 and caught a few more decent sized fish that summer. I haven't caught any since. My best guess is that some came down from Bridgeport.

Well maybe he wasnt completely full of S but probably close to it hahah!

I've seen a couple of hybrids as far as lake worth. it only makes sense if they are upstream.

ive caught one small one at lake worth. i sayed it probably was from bridgeport.
