Almost 22 pounds won the Sunday morning tournament. Those that have Conroe figured out sure do well and they are consistent. I have about zero consistency on Conroe.
That's the reason I live 30 minutes from Conroe and don't fish it. It has become a lake that you can't just go and catch fish. You have to know where the brush piles are. Congrats to the guys that do.
The old brush pile myth. You can catch a bunch of fish on Conroe and never fish a brush pile. Brush piles hold fish but they are better May thru Sept.
I'll vouch for this, Conroe is also all about timing outside of the brush piles. Certain docks, rocky banks, etc. at certain times of day are money. I've never had 'great success' fishing the bulkhead, but there are some areas that are really good.
