Totally AWESOME as always. Great job guys. Side Note: Looks like we might have our first cold front of the season arriving early next week. Forecast is saying Monday. I think these early fronts will really get the fish turned on. What is your take? Also what is your take on the October bite on Fayette? Hopefully the bite keeps on going another month.

Vogey like has already been said. You are living the dream! Great job guys! Side Note: Like Chuck's question. What is your take on the October bite. Might be making plans for a mid October trip!

Laker & Banker...Every year is different, but here are my results from last year. (2018)
10/1/18 water temp 88...caught 60 10/8/18 water temp 86...caught 40 10/22/18 water temp 71...big cold front with rain dropped temp 15 degrees...caught 4 11/1/18 water temp 73...caught 4
After the 11/1 trip I switched to Dunlap with only a handful of Fayette trips for the rest of the year, and none were good for sunnies...

Wow, Vogey I have the same counter...didn't know it went that high, I'm thrilled when the second number gets to 3. Great fishing and great record keeping.

You guys are amazing! Great job! Totally Agree! Side Note: Thanks Steve for the information! I would think that the fish would move into a little deeper water during the winter. 15 to 20 feet! How ever Fayette being a power plant lake could be a factor in their winter patterns. Keep in mind that the lake is also lowered during the late fall/winter time. This could also play a factor in the bite

Thanks gar & Bills...a little knowledge about a lake goes a long way. Banker...I have never really seen the lake lowered all that much & I have fished it a lot over the years. Maybe they do it when its freezing cold...I don't fish then...

The LCRA lowers the lake every year around mid fall. They fill it back to full pool in early spring.

The LCRA lowers the lake every year around mid fall. They fill it back to full pool in early spring. They have been doing that a very long time. I heard it is due to yearly maintenance work on the power plant.
