Myself and buddy Steve fished a local spot this past week and the bite was very good. We caught a lot of Bluegill, Redbreast, and a few Hybrid Sunfish. I also hooked in a very nice bass which was a drag puller for sure. Fought the fish for few minutes and was able to finally catch it. The fish was 22" in length and we guessed the weight between 5 to 7 pounds. The bass was healthy and was released to fight again. Steve also hooked a big bass but it spit the hook after a short fight. Most of the Bluegill were released and Steve kept some for the frying pan. A records application was completed for a Water Body Catch & Release Record for the bass, and was sent to the Texas Parks & Wildlife for their review. Fish were caught on worms using a bottom technique. Fish were holding by grass beds. Spending a morning catching Large Mouth Bass and Bluegill. It just don't get any better. fish

I did not see your fly but the fish told me it was you that almost caught him. The word is out with all of the other fish about you! stir

Side Note: I have caught three Redbreast there this year all in the 10" range. thumb

Side Note: Thanks RCarter for the reply! cheers
