My buddy and i went out today to the lake...quite a few boaters out for the weekend but we managed a few keepers with one real nice one that came from around the lake shore bridge...the pic is of the slab next to a 11 inch fish.....pretty slow bite for us today but it was good to get out on the water...

Nice,, we wandered over there by the old bridge area, bt didnt fish the bridge, how deep is it over there by the bridge? We found a little brushpile in a cove close by, and tried to fish it, but kept getting pushed off of it by a ski boat cruising back and forth with thier outdrive trimmed way up.

Nice fish JMBruce! Hey leanin post, when the south wind blows, that cove is an excellant place to fish.

Good looking hog, now to find the mate

There were a ton a jet fleas out there yesterday..The bigger fish I found yesterday where shallower than they had been. Between 12 and 14 ft.. Deeper piles from 18 to 20 ft didn't haven't many fish..Just my 2 cents.

We like it at the Bridge, but last time we were there , kids from the aprtment complex, I say kids , college kids, were down there hollerin and runnin around... I don't mind but they shouldnt if someone is already there fishing....but an excellent spot with that south wind...I think I may shoot for the spillway tomorrow , see if a Catfish dinner is in my near future.

the last time we were there kids were jumping from a rope into the water. How is the spillway curvytxfish? Last time i was there the crappie were doing pretty good, but there was lots of people there trying to catch them.

Nice! I can't wait till I go on tuesday.

Nice crappie, congrats. Wouldn't take too many of them to make a nice box full.

Skip

I havent been to the dam in a while , I sold my little boat and am no where near done with the other bigger one yet, so I am bank stuck for a while ... I didn't get to the spillway this w/e had a house full of Kids that like to show up to eat...but I will this week..I will post if I catch much...

That is a good one Josh. Better get ur fishn done because football is right around the corner! Maybe we will see u on the lake sometimes.

Yea, its coming up quick that is for sure! Ill get out as much as i can in the next few weeks then it will be few and far between for a few months......

Is the spillway accessible/fishable by kayak? I'm thinking about toodling around in there with some jigs and seeing if I could catch some crappie.

Gonna make the trip up to Waco on Monday in search of some of those big slabs. Congrats on the big fishies.

Good luck to you guys....the last few times ive been out ive probably caught fish on minnows vs. jigs 2 to 1........
