You'll be glad you're using at least a 5 weight when you hook into a big hybrid!

Thanks for the input, guys. It sounds like I just need to tie up some smaller flies.

Looking to do this myself I have heard that the Elm Fork of the trinity north of 428 is a good place. What do you guys throw to catch white bass? If there's any water in there the Elm Fork right below Ray Bob is really good. I'm thinking about scoping it out this Friday.

Cat's Whiskers or Foxy Clousers in white, gray or chartreuse. Also Naked Ladies (Clousers tied with no buck tail, just flash) in similar colors. White bass are notorious short strikers, so make your tails short. When they are deep, I've also had good luck with chartreuse Borski sliders (usually a saltwater fly). Don't forget the Cypert Minnow pattern too!

I'm thinking early Friday morning say 7ish at Elm Fork. Praying there's water in there.

Was up there Saturday, there's a good amount of water up at the Ray Roberts dam but the fish were nonexistent, saw a few shad hit the surface but not near the numbers of sandbass as the last few years. I wasn't there for too long so you may be able to catch some if you work around the area but unless some fish move upstream it's looking slim up there this year.

That "not" what I wanted to hear Austin! Thanks, I'm probably going to give it a shot just to get out of the house. Being sick and in and out of the hospital for two months has me climbing the walls.

Doesn't sound good. Don't really see the need to be there as the sun is coming up. A little later and perhaps the water will warm some.
Go Mo, I'm in the N. Dallas area.
