Any report (good or bad) is a good report.

My barometer has been holding steady through this whole ordeal. I'm actually pretty excited about tomorrow. Stay off my spots!

Any report (good or bad) is a good report. been lately? I wish. It's just a long day when you have to drive so far one way. I can walk out the garage, hook up and be taking away from the dock in 25 minutes on GV. Adding a good hour and fifteen minutes one way to that is tough.

Yesterday was one of those days I wished I didn’t have to drive almost two hours to get there. My first cast I got a quick strike miss. After that and the rest of the day I had another short strike and a hookup that quickly shook the hook and about a 20 lb mudcat that I hooked in the tail. That was at least 5 minutes of fun.
Some observations
Lake temp was 79-80 Schools of shad are balled up everywhere at the surface from the state park to the bridge. There was a lot of dead fish on the water. Some of them really stink and were in the areas I usually catch. The worst thing I could possibly imagine for fishing happened yesterday. There is a time that gar seem to take over the lake and that was the case yesterday. Gar and catfish were almost the only thing I marked from the dam to the bridge. They have taken over the upper water column. Seems to me and it’s only a guess that the lake has started it’s turnover process. I don’t target sandbass but cloud point in all depths seem to have a lot there if that’s what you want As far as the bigger fish go I think they are extremely scattered right now but it shouldn’t be long before they start gathering up!

Fished yesterday from 7:30 - 6:30 It was really tough for me until around 12. I was just about to leave because of the wind. It got brutally gusty for a while. I figured I’d try one more spot and technique and I’m glad I did. The big stripers were grouped up and ready to eat. Feeding with them was what I think were sunshine hybrids. I might have changed my opinion on these. Quite a few of these bust the top of water while reeling them in almost like a smallmouth! Pic attached of one of them if anyone can verify. They seem to be in the 20-22 inch range. I was down by the dam in 10-15 ft. Caught around 25 of the big striper, several catfish, tons of sunshine bass and lots of white bass. Most of the white bass I caught was after leaving the dam area to check other spots in that 10-15 ft range. Averaged a fish every 5-10 minutes until I left and my net broke in two so overall a good day to fish. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2023/09/full-107841-198415-img_8928.jpeg)
