I need to find this beaver dam, I tried to track it on google maps using the directions you all gave but I don't think I was able to find that boat ramp you were first talking about.

Sounds tempting but crappie fishing out of a boat in this wind must be brutal.

Good luck to those fishing this weekend. I'm headed down to lake grapevine tomorrow to help with a nice volunteer event for the physically disabled then we are all going fishing. Buddy has a line on some good sand bass runs for this weekend

Hey guys...I've been out of town for the last month or so but came back this week. I went out to arrowhead for a couple of hours this week but didn't have much luck. Went to both the dam and henrietta bridge and only caught one lousy drum.
Where is Beaver dam?

Sam, if you go to bass pro get a spool of uncoated stainless leader and a pack of swedges from the saltwater aisle and make your own leaders with the hook permanently attached. I came up with it when I fished byers bridge and kept losing the bigones. when you get a bite you can really lay into them if you use a heavy braid along with it.
I would make a bunch at home ahead of time and used a slip sinker so the fish couldn't feel the line. Its 90lb test and really flexible. the swedges are offshore angler brand 0.8 mm.

Bad weather has kept me off the lake. Being off the lake makes me mad. Me mad turns into me getting in trouble. Me being in trouble means I cant fish anyways! Dont you just love this weather?

Don't get me started on this weather! I might go off and end up on the wall of shame. Anyway, I fished HB yesterday for about an hour before sunset and as usual .......nothing!
