Got to Benbrook at about 7am this morning(very glad to be back from Salt Lake) and started at Mexican Ridge. Picked up a few small sandbass but not much else. Saw boats and birds at Airplane field but didn't feel like joining the boat show. Caught some shad and picked up a nice hybrid at the humps. Thought that would be it for the day but got convinced to try an area I was at earlier in the day. Anchored up and wham--shad didnt hit the bottom--fat sandbass. Reloaded shad--wham 19in hybrid. Was gonna put out 3 rods with shad but couldnt keep bait on 2 before I would get hit. Action slowed after a dozen or so sandbass and 1/2 dozen hybrids. Continued to pick up hybrid or sandbass every few minutes so I picked up a TNT slab and started getting nice sandbass and ugh tons of yellow bass. Ended the day at around 2 with about 12 hybrids and about 20 sandbass-didnt count the yellows. Brought back 5 fat sandbass that were hooked deep for a special white bass and pasta recipe-(well its tuna helper with broiled sandbass instead of tuna--try it before you laugh) Good times and close to home. Used maybe 1 gallon in boat and 1 in truck.

Where were you at the Hubbard tourney???? You missed a great time. Tons of fun were had by all. I expected to see you there. What gives????

Yeah...what gives

Nice job of catching on Benbrook. Joann, Kyle and I had a great time on Hubbard and the white bass were pretty good size!!!

EJ, Interesting report. My boat has been out of the water for a few days for maintenance, got it back in early afternoon today. We found it a littel slow, but did catch some crappie ( we were after sandies) and one was a black crappie. First one I have seen, pretty interesting with the black stripe.
Congrats on your good day!

Nice! I've not been so lucky last few times out to BB. But, will try again, and again, and again..... I guess I kinda like the challenge, in a sick self-tormenting way. Friday, I had a bait tank full of perfect size shad in two nets. That should have told me something right off. Couldn�t get a bite???? Oh well...
Cheers,
Anthony

Good job and nice report jason

I lost my spot on the boat because I got outfished by a 5yr old(Danny's boy ) Naw Danny's boat was full and I was in SLC all week so I didnt have a chance to fish the lake. Maybe next time.

Any magnum yellars?

Well, after all the help I finally found some hybrids, not as many as Jason but a few just the same. I got on the wtr about 6:oo pm, had a hard time finding large shad but scraped together some and went and anchored up and ended up w/ 4. 19 1/2", 20", and 2- 17 15/16" . My wife got to reel them all in. It was a blast. Thanks again!!!!!!!!! Allen--

No decent sized yellows- I had shad bigger than a lot of the yellows-and they were hitting a 1 1|2 oz slab ?!??!

Dang yellers are dumber than rocks - - caught a couple on rattletrap today that were the same size as the trap.

Went this morning and got about a dozen sandies, most being pretty decent size. All came in 2-3 ft deep water on windblown points where the shad were thick. Couldn't buy a slab bite in deeper water.

going to try toi make it after work if the wind will lay down

Hollar at me if you head out there greg--I should be out there/

i dont want to catch yellows man ..... lol

I don't speak pig latin what is toi.
