Hey everybody, Here's a quick update on the fishing, post monsoon. The lake is up about 3ft and is slightly over 2ft low. Current surface temp was 53. All the hull-busters that were barely out of the water are now hidden but hopefully everybody has them marked. On a side note, I'm going to get all the stumps I have marked and keep a running list so all the new folks can stay safe. Gonna work on that tomorrow hopefully.

With all that rain and mud flowing into the lake it really killed the fishing last week. I dont think I have ever seen the water so stained. We worked hard at it and still eeked out a few fish but it was tough. BUT....This is a new week with great weather forecasted, rising water temps and light wind. Should be fantastic!

Got out today with high expectations of some hungry fish and it didn't disappoint. Caught somewhere around 30-40 fish before this came in:

Very cool site but it absolutely SHUT DOWN the fish for the rest of our time out...except for these little monsters.

The bite today was definitely not what it was the last 2-3 weeks but it was steady. Lots of fish but the size dropped. But still a relief after the slop of a week since last Wednesday I'm guessing that it's going to steadily pick back up as the week goes on until the spawn gets going full throttle. With these warmer temps and lack of a decent cold snap, this thing may get going SOON! We did keep a few for a weekend fish fry but threw back about as many.


I'm still running the $100 a head special for anybody who wants to get out. (no minimum # of people needed to book) Let's get out there and get em!

Of all the guides i like your stories the best.

Thanks for the report Paul. It looked like great weather for a few hours this afternoon. And did I hear more rain is coming?

See you out there.

Thanks LipRipper

Thanks for the report Paul. I had been watching for it all day yesterday. Glad you got on the fish. Great pics also.

Great report Paul... That little fish looks like it's saying, "Can you take me to Geoff? He's got my Momma!" Looks like Friday is the rain day and cooler weekend. Happy Fishing.

Thanks for the lake update, Paul! Today is looking good, hope youll catch a bunch! I am off manana but its slated to rain all day and I am praying to see the lakes full again. Happy fishing, guys!

I too really enjoy your reports. How deep were you fishing. Or were you able to work the birds.

Nice report! But one question......Why are those fish on the carpet again?

Sorry Austin, didn't know you were such a fan of red carpet. I'm more of an anti-carpet person myself

Not a huge fan! I prefer slick tile but if there is carpet, I like it clean and not all napppy and dirty!

Slick Tile is best but if u do have to have carpet, it at least needs to be very low cut and have a nice grain to it.

Hey there folks, just getting off the water from an absolutely FANTASTIC day with first time customer, Larry. �I'll let a few pics speak for themselves. �We whacked em till we just didn't feel like whackin em no more. Probably caught 50-60 big keeper sandbass and a few under hybrid. I think them giant sandies ran the hybrid off!�

Still running the $100 a head special...who wants it?

Here's Larry with the first double.


Got stupid with it and slammed a triple!


Big sandy of the day @ 15"


And it wouldn't be a Bombay post without a graph pic!

I fixed it for ya if you truley wanted the pictures to speak for themselves.

I'm gonna have to destroy your carpet now. Game on
