Not worried about the yellowcats(unless you just give up the info ;)). Just was curious about some different spots on th west side. Fished most of the east side, just seems the west side is hard to get to. I see people fishing the bank on the west side when out on a boat, just can't seem to figure out how to get there. What happened to that boat u got from me?
I'm gonna miss her....

I still have it smokey, had time today to go, but didn't want to battle the 25 mph winds by myself. Still running good. Hope to take it out soon.
Thanks catboss for that info, drove down that road many times and figured the only access would be thru persons property. Just though I might he have missed a dirt road somewhere. There are plenty around that lake, some to water and some to houses as you know. I have a lake house at another lake and wouldn't want people to walk through my property either.

Fishing And Knowing a lake is a big difference U r Right there..and just like you said im not wrong with the post telling the guy them them flatheads were not on the west side of the lake yet...Im not saying U didnt catch them or the pictures are fake..them are good yella cats and glad to c um being caught...But as far as my knowledge of the lake..yes there is still alot to learn there for me but our first place finish in a tourny there with the weights of all fish documented and pictured against some of the best tourney fishermen in the US says i KNOW the lake somewhat. as much as someone who has fished it for 40 years? na but I do know when and where the fish run most of the time and I let the graph tell me at the times I dont know.....Not everyday is a total success with toads, actually got skunked on my yak in 25 mph winds saturday morning for a first in awhile but I will find the flatheads in the spring run this year and u can bank on that..

.. There are 3 different crossovers from westlake road to the bank and a road all the way up the bank.. Google earth.. And the city of abilene has allowed people to fish it as long as u do not get stuck u are not breaking any rules and u can actually walk the whole bank the bank is not private propetry.. Words of the lake patrol. I wouldnt go snoopin around someones dock or back yard lol may end up catchin a beatin lol

Guess I will check them out. Saw the roads on google earth. One of them is blocked by a big rock pile that you can actual see on google earth. Guess I need to go back out there and do some driving around.

Catboss,
I think my dad and you may have fished together a long time ago on the "HILL". He was good friends with Buz and Connie. He also worked at WTU for a long time before they decommissioned.
PM some time.
