Bonham Reports?

Bonham Reports? - 06/15/21 05:19 PM

Anyone fished Bonham lately? I haven't been out there all year. How's the water conditions? How's the vegetation situation? Seems like the last time I was out there wasn't as many reeds as in the past.

I fish a Wednesday nighter on Texoma and was invited to a Thursday nighter on Bonham, so I assume there's something there.

I have no fishing reports for bass. Been out there for crappie. I can say that the lake is completely full. There is reeds and some other shoreline vegetation in the water. Water has a slight stain to it but really looks good. Id like to sneak out there one Thursday. We will see if I get that done.

Was out there Sunday about Mid Day, water temp was 90-91.2 main body of water all the way back the pockets. Water color was muddy. Only about 6-8in of vis looking at a white bait. We only fished for 3 hrs due to heat. stay out in the main parts after 10am or so. Only caught one and it was a shad crank bait 10-15. what was caught was not even a Bass, got us a crappie 1.52lbs.

muddy as can be by 273, went in today and it was still like chocolate milk a the bridges.

no one on the lake either, usually 1-2 retirees out but it may be the heat.

Ugh. Not digging the chocolate milk. I may end up back at Roberts as usual.

Any recent reports on Bonham? Never been on that lake, but was going to try it Saturday afternoon/evening.
