Well its nearly time, im about to hit LBL for the first time. I have a few questions regarding the lake thatll help me get prepared.(i know the question's are hard to answer depending on where i fish but it will give me a rough idea before i take my marker float down there)as im in steiner ranch a little north and with three kids ive found it hard to do a little recon.
1, i know its a million dollar question depending on what swim etc, but what sort of depth am i looking at on average? 10-15' at 60yds
2, lake bottom, am i looking at silt, gravel or weedy?It really depends on the swim. Some have a lot more snags than others. Generally it is a fairly hard bottom.
3, Is there much of a flow?when they release water which is usually daily , yes there is a lot of flow. Some days they do it twice. During drought conditions there are little to no flow.
4, Do the fish like it pilled in or a little but often.I don't pile it in much until i either see them rolling in or I start catching.
5, am i looking at fishing in the middle of the lake down the edges etc there are features out there so it does depend on the swim
5, Do the fish show eg on top or jump alot.yes and yes
After putting these questions down ive realised it looks like im cheating a little asking these but on such a big water and not knowing anyone to ask and little time to spend exploring i thought id see if anyone could give me a head start.
Thanks
Chris
