Lake house pictures

I tried posting some pictures, they are too big, I'll have to get to a computer, I got some good lake house ones

okay ready for some updates finally got to spend some time on rayburn dont have any tournaments for a while.....ill start with the tournament i won a couple weeks ago. we fished northern coves out of the northwestern winds because they warm the quickest. we threw trickworms and red river special swim jigs (white) around grass, caught a few on smaller swimbaits also. i think the scattered grass had a lot to do with holding bigger fish thats where the two big girls came from. right next to the grass was some sort of channel swing or where 2 channels came together or a ditch. lots of smaller fish were on the flats in the bean bushes. i havent caught many fish from the buck brush this year. we had another club tournament yesterday and it was brutal fishing for me. tuesday the winds were 25-30 mph so prefishing wasnt very good i did cross the lake in my new basscat and it handled the 4 foot swells really good, just gotta know how to run. ( i hate public service announcements) IF YOU HAVE NOT RUN IN ROUGH WATER DO NOT ATTEMPT IT BY YOURSELF THE FIRST TIME. i grew up fishing sabine lake and have lotsa of expierence running rough water, make sure you guys new to bass fishing and boating get someone to show you the tricks of running rough water before you attempt it on your own. tuesday was the roughest ive ever seen big sam 4-5 foot swells comming out of caney boat ramp so i just prefished around there. i fished coleman bird island deer stand caney and a few other flats with no bites yesterday for our tournament. i caught one keeper on a top water frog and one on a trick worm, i didnt find a school of fish till 2 pm then went through a dink fest tring to round out my limit. ended up weighing 2 fish for like 4 pounds. went from being on top to catching 2 fish stinks, but we cant win em all.........to new tournament fishermen/women set goals for yourself at the beginning of the season. my goals this year after fishing the same club last year was/is to win 1 tournament, and to weigh in 1 fish every tournament (i scrsatched on keepers 2-3 tourneys last year). it has helped me keep a better outlook on things. ive won a tournament this year and so far have weighed in something every tourney so far........

I have been fishing Big Sam here lately, last two club tournament have been over there....site fishing in housen during the week is awesome. do not even try on the weekend

Camp is now 90% finished

Housen has been a lot more friendly lately, not much good in 6 mile lately

Can anyone tell me what or where they call the brickyard on Sam Rayburn?I have never heard of this area, maybe we call it something else.......?

Sure

8.06 and 6.01

Also caught them on light Texas rigged June bug trickworms around the brush and bean stalks,fished around Harvey creek and buck bay

Here are the big girls, jigs had hollow body swim baits for trailers

henry the fish we caught today had already spawned and were holding on grass flats.... i wrecked the fish today on santone's new siwash swin jig in 7/16 oz in the red river special.....pictures coming soon

will tell you where tomorrow after my tournament, all fish were caught on weightless trick worm/wacky

it has just started before this last cold front, I fished 5different areas and only caught 1 fish from each. One was 8# fish moved a little deeper because of the front,big one was in brush.

Headed to big Sam this morning, report when I get back

fish down here in the south will be spawning now through april in some cases, try to find fish where the boats arent stacked up......it is well worth it when you do. julie creek is a well known spawning area, as are many others around the 147 bridge. you can catch fish behind people but finding your own water is where its at this time of year, ill only fish shallow during the week

fished Monday in the snow, caught 20 pounds pre fishing for my club tournament in Mill Creek with a crank bait and a rattle trap.fished Tuesday with my partner, did not fish very hard but caught a 4 pounder running a small pattern in Clear Creek. club tournament came Wednesday, weather was back and forth fished in the same areas with no big ones. salvaged the day with 12.5. we are in second place, leading is 12.74

Anyone want to trade north info for south info so I know where to start tomorrow

Ill be on the lake tomorrow morning fishing in a black/grey/red basscat puma, wave me down if you see me and we'll compare notes, I'll be around the bridge, and north Toledo state park islands

1215 is huge, I went to the Christmas tree area the other day and chunked around a crankbait with no luck. I have a big fish takes all tournament this weekend up north and haven't had any luck pre fishing, hopefully I stumble into something or catch one big stupid fish

smoked them today, 5 fish for 12# better than a scratch for the first club tournament.....

we have a 409 bass club that we fish toledo and rayburn just had our first tourney today. i havent got to fish 1/10th of what i did last year guys sorry for the slowly developing thread.....will post after some practice for our first rayburn tourney

Congrats on the win, y'all did better than me. Caught 5 yesterday on a fluke/trick worm all small. Not a single bite today. Fished six mile flats housen. I'm thinking about giving up fishing lol

i got lots of idling to do searching for some fish, i have a club tourney wednesday, and another tourney friday sat and sunday with friends so hopefully i can at least catch some fish. no bites the last three times out
