Was there yesterday. Pretty tuff Rods454 you must have them hidden somewhere and wouldn’t let them out to play. I fished most of the day. Started in the timber 16-18 then down from there along the channel. I fished the bridge and caught 4 keepers that were released. Cloudy conditions didn’t help either. I caught 14 Friday from 8am-12:00. I left when the front blew through.

We caught a lot of small bass, 2 legal- released, lot of small crappie, all the large (5) we brought home still had eggs. Could not get any on jigs, all on minnows, scattered in 5' or less.
Rods, as we were leaving noonish, saw a yellow boat paralleling the dam as we were crossing?

Rod, Great seeing you on the lake yesterday. I haven't caught any bass in any of my trips either. I did catch this little guy he was so colorful I had to take his picture. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/04/full-109982-48093-20200420_131859.jpg) I didn't stay as long as you but I managed to take home 11. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/04/full-109982-48095-20200420_162530.jpg) A lot of my fish we spawned out females. All caught on jigs. 12 to 18 FOW.

Was out Sunday from about 7 to 2. Brought home 9. All caught on jigs, standing timber from 3-10 fow, with quite a few unders caught as well. Also caught 3 bass and a sandbass. I hit 3 brushpiles that didn't produce at all.

Rod,
Great seeing you on the lake yesterday. I haven't caught any bass in any of my trips either. I did catch this little guy he was so colorful I had to take his picture. I didn't stay as long as you but I managed to take home 11. A lot of my fish we spawned out females. All caught on jigs. 12 to 18 FOW. I need to give up bass fishing there and just target crappie, last trip out bass fishing blanked. I only go there a few times a year now but was looking at my fishing log and I haven't caught a bass there since 2017  always done well on crappie there.
