I was referred to Dannie Golden by friends who swore by him. I fished that lake while in college before it opened and since. Moved away for several years and it has definitely gotten tough in the winter. I went out with Dannie the day after this past Christmas and we had as good a day on the water as I would have expected on any lake in N. Texas, that includes Fork. The biggest was 7.25, not a lot of fish, but we caught at every spot we fished. The toughest thing about RR to me is the ability to run in the creeks due to fluctating water levels, no marked boat lanes and inadequate mapping beyond the hazzard markers, even the latest greatest Navionics. Dannie however,can run full out to the back of every creek on the lake. I highly recommend a couple of trips with him to get the lay of the land. He's a great guy also, spent 8 days with him on Falcon in January and we smoked the fish. Go to www.get-bit.comCV

The sprang time bite is awesome. After 15 years fishin that lake i learned one thing. The lake has a heavy shad population. In the summer find humps or drops in about 20 foot and fish shad color baits. Very seldom will u go home empty handed. The big downside is u catch sever sandbass and gasper goo"s to every bass but the bass are usally gooderns

lake is moodier then my ex ol' lady.... should be a good year for her. Cant get much worse... the lake is really finicky but still always puts out some nice sacks. Lots and lots of grass this year with vegetation in places I havnt ever seen it. Should make for a good spawn and a decent year of fishing. My buddy had an 11 pounder out there the other day but caught it on a black buzzbait?
That right there goes to show you Ray Roberts doesnt read the same books we do.
Looking forward to bass champs in a couple of weeks... should spit out a 30 plus pound sack- weather permitting. See ya on the water. There are no 11lbers left in this mudhole.

Good lake, but it can be frustrating at times. Frustrating until you catch that fish in your sig.

October was not bad either. Treated me better than Falcon did in Nov.
