Athens is fishing good right now. Lots of schooling bass. Deep bite on brush is really good too

Out of those 3 I would fish Hubbard for sure. Lake Ray Hubbard is full of big fish. I've had more 20lb days there than anywhere else. Caught a 12lber out there last summer.

Best little lake in Texas - Athens
Caught 25 on a bad day there two weeks ago from 6:30 am till noon. Biggest fish are biting weightless watermelon red senkos early in the grass. Keep you a small chrome chug bug on for the schooling bass as they are blowing up all over the lake till about 10:30 am. Even doubled up a few times on the Alabama rig.

Early must be the ticket on Athens. It seems like I always get started around 10. I’ve sucked for about two weeks now. Schoolers don’t want to play and not a nibble in several brush piles using a big worm.

Had a solid morning on Hubbard on Wednesday.

Fished Athens Thursday morning and ended up catching a decent amount on weightless flukes and T-rig.

Fished Fork Thursday afternoon 3:30PM till 8:30PM and did not get a single bite... hammer

Went back to Athens Friday morning and repeated our Thursday pattern.

Thanks for the advice fellas...Fork is all yours!!!!!!!!!
