The Peaceful Guadalupe River!

Fished the Guadalupe River this morning and boy was it "PEACEFUL"! You can tell that school is back in session. (No Tubers). Had a part of the river all to myself with the exception of a fly angler who was enjoying the river along with a fine cigar! I fished from 9:30am till 12:30pm and the bite was good. Caught a mess of fat Hybrids (Sunfish) in the 8" range,Bluegill in 7 to 8" range,some small Longear,and several small bass rounded out the catch. Fish were holding close to the bank next to overhanging tree limbs. Fish were caught using worms and were in shallow water 1 to 3 feet deep. The water was clear with a strong current. Finished the day with a stop on Lake Dunlap where I picked up a couple more fat Bluegill in the 8" range and some nice Redear in 8" range.The fish on Dunlap were caught on worms using a bottom technique. Fish were released to fight again. A peaceful day on the Guadalupe River. It just don't get any better.

Thanks Robert for the reply! If you would have been with me I would have stopped at the Union Street Station for an afternoon breakfast.

Thats some sexy looking water

Thanks Andrew for the reply! Yes Sir the Guadalupe River is one "SEXY" river! Robert: I will give you a call!

Another great post Chuck. I really do enjoy seeing these great places you fish. I need to take more pictures of the scenery.

School and dove season usually free up all waters !

Thanks Jamie for the reply. This area is less than a mile from where you caught your record flyrod Redbreast.

Wet wading the Guad and other rivers, creeks and streams in CenTex and SouthTex is one of the things that I miss most about fishing around SA.

Thanks "Jagg" for the reply. Yes Sir the Guadalupe is one GREAT wading river to fish.

I actually saw you and the fly guy down there fishing. I was fishing upstream from the bridge and was walking back to my truck when the other fly fisherman was heading down to the water. I should have walked over and said hello but didnt know it was you!

Thanks "Hunter498" for the reply. Yes Sir I would have loved to have shaken your hand. There is always a next time. Would love to exchange some good fishing stories with you.

nice job
so do they hide downstream behind the branches?

Thanks for the reply! Yes sir I was catching a bunch next to trees close to the bank! They are waiting to ambush anything good to eat that is coming down that current!

Always enjoy your posts.. I fish alot of the same areas around the Hill Country that you like. Usually I have my fly rod with me but every now and again I have to break out my ultralight with gulp minnows to get the better bites. Keep the posts coming, when I cant fish at least i get to see awesome pics of someone else enjoying what I love to do!

Thanks "Cowboytx0614" for the reply. Yes Sir we are very blessed to have some very nice fishing spots in our area. Can not think of anything better to do than spending time FISHING!

Looks like a little slice of paradise!

Thanks Peyton for the reply. Yes Sir the Guadalupe is one slice of paradise for sure!

Best fishing River in Texas! Will be fishing the east side this week. Also Mcqueeney is picking up. Caught some nice Bluegill in one of the coves. Fish were in 8 feet of water by tree overhangs.
