Today we went with live bait. We struggled catching the right size bait but the ones we had produced. Caught 10 smallest 28” and the largest just shy of 33” . It’s a picky pattern but the big girls are in the trees. Thanks to Fermin for allowing us to use his dock for pics. He’s also on the same pattern.

At least when it comes back I may not have to worry about zebra mussels in my net for a while. Last trip I had a few in the bait tank. My brother lives between Burnet and Inks and took these pics a this week. 2200 Bay Champ/200 Mercury Optimax 2017 Tundra TSS 4x4 Crewmax 5.7L

Will they come back with a vengeance when the water comes up {if}. Or will they have to start over and it will be a few years? It has killed a bunch.

My understanding is they will have to start over and move back to the shallows. One benefit of fluctuating lake levels. Heat kills them pretty quick

My understanding is they will have to start over and move back to the shallows. One benefit of fluctuating lake levels. Heat kills them pretty quick I hope so. Last time out catching bait was tough in an area where I normally have no problems. Guide was blaming zebra mussels for eating all their food. I am not sure about that the mussels are 100% to blame. I think some of it was the lack of water flowing in from the creeks. 2200 Bay Champ/200 Mercury Optimax 2017 Tundra TSS 4x4 Crewmax 5.7L
