Waiting on the Fools report...seems like I saw a cooler full of hybrids come across my phone The Fools Late Night Report!! Just got in after a little GTG for my very good friend Clint. It was his Birthday. We went straight from fishing over this their house. I didn't see any blue cans but sure was quite a few Blue Bottles..LOL Did I ever mention that they always have some awesome grub for parties!!  Anyways, 14 Hybrids and a bunch of whites today. Seen some great folks on the lake, SS, Pauline, Crab Bait and Family, Tommy (Hook em), Tommy and Robin. Lot's of boats out today, Crazy divers!! Matt(Crab Bait) and Family.. They were wacking them fish today.   Tommy and Robin in their very sweeet looking boat. You gotta see it up close.. Nice   The Ice chest.. BTW, the shad is the size we were using.

After seeing the streets near Belton with all those leave on the road and driveways, I am glad no one got hurt. You folks had one heck of a Hail Storm last night.

Last post..
Krisy took the Helm and steered us onto a load of fish. After slamming them for a while, here comes the Lone Ranger, eyeballing us catching fish until he just had to try his luck too. Drop his trolling motor and start slabbing. He get caught up onto my anchor rope and pulls the dang anchor out of the water and cut his line. Yes siree buddy, pulled my anchor up with his fishing line and threw us off our hole.. So funny, I asked him you pulled my anchor up, he replied, I dropped in back into the water. I asked what kind of line he had, he replied 40lbs line. No wonder he was able to pull my anchor up, he said be careful there is a peice of his hook on the rope, sure nuff, hook in rope, looked like a catfish hook, It was a thick hook.. LOL Cool Dude!!

Good to see Snakman's face! Glad you all had a good time crappie fishing. We need to go catch some. Its been a while. I had to come check in and see if John gave me credit for putting him on the fish and I see he did not, lol. He got mad at me because my built in fish radar was working overdrive today and I kept saying no we need to go that way, go over there. He finally said ok you go drive the boat and find the fish and I went right to them and told him get in the front and drop the anchor when I say. Well he did and I got us right on top of the pile of hybrids. We were whacking them til some guy got his lure stuck in our anchor rope and pulled up our anchor then we lost them and didn't get back into them til later in the day when it was almost time to leave and caught a few more. Thanks to my Mom for the fish finding instincts I inherited from her, lol. Stay safe, it looks like more nasty weather on the way.

Well, moved into the house today, lots of work ahead. I hear that some of the lakes around here opened up today for trout fishing. Didn't realize that lakes close. LOL, slowly but surely I am buying some tackle to handle these big boys out here, but priorities first. Just got out of the hot tub, ran out of beer, did I mention I have my priorities straight. The back sure did appreciate the soak though. Gonna start working on digging holes to extend my fence tomorrow. Two labs need more room than what I have now. F4F, and TB, nice pics of the fish. Notice I didn't call you. I think I did reply to Fools with two words that I won't mention here. LOL, See you guys in about a week.
Hooah!

Well, can't top F4F's report, BTW nice catch!! Fished Decker from 7'ish to 11'ish am after work. Couldn't find the shad in the normal spots, but the few shad I did find caught these. Boated 4 Hybrids and 2 Whites, the 4th Hybrid was too short...

IO don't think this front is going to shut the bite down. If anyone hits the water as long as there is no lighting the fish should cooperate. Remember to wear rain gear it still may be wet. Off to church

Hello Belton Bunch!
I've been reading the forum for ~ the last 9 months but didn't join until this morning. My family is in the process of moving up to the Belton area from Bryan and we all love (live) to fish. We've fished for whites on Somerville for many years reasonably successfully once we learned the lake. But now we are looking forward to starting over on Lake Belton. I've learned a lot from reading your posts and the occasional chance to fish Belton ~once a month. We will hopefully finish our move in a few months so we will get many more opportunities to fish Belton. We tried yesterday for hybrids/WB but couldn't find the shad and didn't do well on the hybrids. So we caught some ugly green fish and HUGE sunfish to fry up for dinner!
The lake and area are beautiful and I've enjoyed reading your forum. We look forward to meeting some of you on the water (although we did wave to F4F in Feb. right near the TLP launch) participating in the forum and learning some of the BB "trade secrets" for the lake! (I'm not too proud to potlick!) Speaking of trade secrets, without knowing your secret handshake can anyone give me some hints on where to find the shad here?
Thanks & Good Fishing!
Dave
