I am about to walk out the door for one more trip out there till Champs. I agree its tough but still holding out that iy will get better and looking forward to next Saturday just the same. I agreed on the water color looking great on wednesday so I am curious to see what it is like now.

I consider myself a stick on this lake. Have the plaques and tournament checks to prove it. In 20 years of fishing this lake I have never seen it as tough as it is right now. Spent 3 days on the lake this week for 3 fish. Barrett is absolutely right on the water color. Wednesday it was green and pretty water. Come back out Friday and it's brown. I'm sure someone has fond a few and will do good on during Champs but with a week of cold weather on its way I'm not too optimistic. Looks like two nights it gets pretty chilly but daytime and rest of the time it is gonna be at least decent. The report has changed a few times already but here it is as of 5 minutes ago. http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/Sanger+TX+USTX1218:1:US

We fished HARD yesterday for 2 stinking bites! We fished from the backs of creeks to main lake points and rocks to mud! Yes the boat lanes are FULL of stumps and tree tops. I hope everyone uses their heads in champs, because Ray Bob is being really ugly right now...

Does everyone think that since we had such a long cold winter that it has hurt the bass or something? I haven't fished there much and won't be at the bass champs or anything but there is a small semi-private lake that I fish a lot and it's usually pretty good by now. Found water in the mid 50's last weekend, found water almost 60 today but I haven't had a bite. I don't understand. I read through this thread and I'm guessing it has to be that water around here just rarely gets this cold for so long. That even though water is warming up in the shallows those fish are still dug in deep and don't want to move and are very inactive. It may take a month of consistent warm weather to get things back to normal. It's frustrating right now for sure.

The lake wasn't even opened up back then, these fish are in hibernation. Deep cold water. Just look on the positive side they'll be spawning when Bass Champs returns this year in June, I promise you that!

Got one today midway point on a creek bend bouncing a Squarebill off the trees. He was just over 18", healthy, but lethargic. Good tug, but didn't want to go back in the cold water! It did warm up, found some 57-58. Main lake is getting near 50 (47-49). I am not fishing the Champs event, so you can trust that my report is true. Also, interesting to note, in 60 degree water near the back of a creek and a dry pond dam, am sure I heard bed making going on...

The fishing is nearly always tough out here in February. You just don't get many bites.

Whether it be champs or ttt that lake is going to churn out some sacks pretty quick. It can go nuts in a hurry.
