This week is shot down but, maybe next week !!!!!!!!

we caught em chunking chartruse crappie nibbles under the trees just north of the island. we would put the nibble below a cork and cast under the trees and let the current drift it down. best if you can find a deep hole up next to the bank.

thanks for the tip stumpjumper, i have nibbles in my bag but never thought to use em for whites or on a hook alone.

fire ban...... no propane or natural fire at all in the park.

Whites are running heavy up to the water fall... 1 mile before the park's boat ramp. Must have boat.

27 females and 14 males on minnows and chart rooster tails.

I am guessing this weekend into next week the bass will make thier way to the park's island and back toward the primitive camping. They usually hold for about two weeks.

Fish away from other fisherman. Heavy presure is slowing the bite in good holes.

Good luck and see you there

scaleandrelease,

do you think the cold weather will make a difference? i was considering going thursday or saturday, boatless.

Is the water deep enough to get a 18' bass boat or ski boat in there? Or would I need to bring my small boat?

It is plenty deep to launch that boat at the park.

I was there two weeks ago and caught 5 in about 30 from the bank using copper and silver superduper. 2 were really small and 3 others were close to 10". Plan to brave the cold this weekend.

Just spoke to park personnel - they're getting some rain but expect the burn ban to continue unless quite a bit more falls. Still no open fires (stoves, heaters, etc).

Said the fishing is good with some limits coming off the sand banks.

Looking for cold weather tonight & Friday night.

Anyone planning on going this weekend?

all of this rain the last few days at glen rose has me thinking the fishing is going to be great this year at bend.

it has been a few years since i fished at the different camp grounds on the colorado river, anyone have any favorite spots for bank fishing ?

I appreciate that info. I'm going to try and get up in a couple of weeks.

goin up to the park tommorrow.....it's going to be a cold night with no fire!

LSB,

I'm from Kerrville & heading that way, too. See ya there!

Hope you have a wonderfull weekend. I remember... it was beautiful out there in the AMs. Used to camp there when the "Lemons" family used to own the land a long time ago. My family is from Lampasas. I'm in Austin these days. Good luck with the fishing. Keep us posted.

I was thinking of going next Fri but I'm going to watch the weather. I'm hopeing this cool weather will not delay the action what do yall think ??????????
