My ol fishing partner Littlefeather!!! Sure wish you could have come and fished with me and Jax for this one!! For those of y’all that don’t know Curtis, he is my old fishing buddy and the other half of The High Plains Drifters! One of the nicest and most interesting guys I have ever met. We used to chase fish together on a regular basis and some of my most epic trips were with Curtis. I will never forget the time we each caught a 69 lbr and close to 30 Blues over 30 lbs in one trip. He used to guide down at the coast for fish and was a famous big game archery outfitter back in his hay day. He hand makes his own bows arrows out of wood he collects and even uses arrowheads he makes from flint and glass. I sure miss that guy and even though we haven’t fished together in close to 3 years my son still asks when we’re going fishing with uncle Littlefeather again! Curtis is moving to Costa Rica and I can’t wait to go see him down there and fish with my good buddy again. I miss you Curtis and sure wish the High Plains Drifters could ride one last time before you leave for Costa Rica!!

Hey there big guy! I miss you too Fredo. It’s been a gritty uphill pull with a pebble in my shoe getting through this past couple years. I look around and see so many who seem to be paddling for life so I’m not complaining of my woes. Yep, gonna pull anchor and do some umbrella drinks and some cool-easy salty breezes awhile. Sometime when the good Lord opens a door ya just step through. Some blessings and opportunities don’t merit questioning.
Like some dude once said, “I don’t always drink but when I do it’s Tecate, on a far away Playa, during a glorious sunset, as I reflect on a life so blessed and full of friends”! That man was truly blessed!
Good to see you ol friends! Will watch Fredo, Gato and Jaxnado’s video soon. I’m jealous knowing I missed that trip! 12 dinks is a great trip when you realize just being there was good enough! God bless, tight lines, and nothing but toads till April! Y’all have fun!

Littlefeather what are of CR are you moving to? My wife and I went there a couple years ago and fell in love with that place. We spent most of our time around Quepos. We are trying to figure out a time to go back. Jungles and beaches and great fishing and wild life. I miss that place
I am jealous of you.

Quepos is sweet! It’s all a world of wonder down there! I’m not real sure right now where I’ll end up. Right now Uvita is looking really nice way down south! Not many non native faces and the world is fresh and raw. It’s kinda hard forward looking right now. After seeing so much darkness the last couple years I’m thinking of packing kinda light and drifting awhile. I’ll take a surfboard and a fishing rod. The board for me and the rod so I can smile again and teach a kid to fish. I know it sounds very Jack Kerouac but sometime chasing rainbows are just exactly the perfect medicine! I’m gonna load into one of my old Chevy’s and try and make it to weigh-in on Sunday. I gotta see some friends!👍

We caught an 8” Blue on a 10/0 hook yesterday Z! This weekend is gonna be fun! I caught one down on the Brazos like that, didn't even know he was on the line. I was checking my bait, as it had been bumped a couple times. No telling how long I'd been trolling with him on the line.

I got some this morning, they're on ice. But man, we lost a lot of mature shad in the freeze, around here at least. Most are this years hatch. Be nice to have some big enough to make into cut bait. May bring the bait tank, and try my luck there for some live ones.

I was able to get around 3 gallons of bait this morning and will go check my sunfish trap this evening. Bait was tough as it looks like the lake is mixing and everything was spread out. Got 3 big Buffalo, a medium sized carp, small drum, about 25 good gizzards, and a gallon of mature Threads. Not really enough big baits but y’all are welcome to em. I will filet the Buffs and Carp today.
I did not Fish today but I did grind and scan for 2.5 hours looking for them. It was hard to find a fishable pattern but I was able to find medium size groups of fish holding tight to structure. Points humps ledges. Didn’t see much on the flats. Fish were scattered at all deaths and I marked them in 1 foot out to 42 feet. Judging from what I saw today the fishing is going to be pretty tough. I will post a map of the areas I marked fish and y’all can decide where y’all want to fish. The old lake looked to hold the best fish but you’ll have to cross open water getting back to the dock so keep that in mind if your a smaller boat.

PM me whoever needs locations that I marked fish. Don’t want to post all my pins in the open forum. Only my friends get inside information and everyone who is joining us and supporting me is considered a friend…
