Looks like several folks will be at TB during the Roadtrip. Y'all oughta shoot your number over to BassinChris so we can all be in contact. Would love to meet y'all for lunch or dinner and see how ur catching!

Gents, I expect to be there Saturday morning prob around 8 am. Will launch and fish till everybody wants to meet for lunch or dinner. If anybody is boatless they can jump in with me. BTW, 20# AbrazX on your heaviest rod with a creature bait flipped to the cypress was getting done for my son last weekend.

Pretty sure I'll be around sat and sun of the roadtrip

Pity the fool who misses the TB Roadtrip! The big girls are still biting despite the muddy water. Randy with a 10+ and my son Chad with an 8 from our tourney this weekend.

Fishing improved for our club Sunday. Not many limits but everybody caught at least a few quality fish. Also, less floaters in the lake. I guess they were headed south pretty quickly. Big fish was 10.24 from Hay grass, my son got an 8 flipping cypress in his two day bag of about 30 pounds.

Small limit for my son today in our tourney on TB so don't let the muddy water scare you off!

Muddy water didn't seem to hurt the bite as bad as you might think. Our club had 24 anglers on the lake today and I don't think we had a blank. Most weighed a few. Guys were all over the lake fishing deep to shallow and results seemed pretty consistent. Lots and lots of junk floating in the lake so be really careful running.

So the docks we flipped 5 days ago are under water. The haygrass that had gators laying in it is under water. The cypress that had 2' of water in them have 5' today. Everything is now muddied up good and there is a pretty good current in the lake and I'm fishing the next two days. Anybody have any thoughts about catching some?

oh crap. not good for our tourney this weekend

Anybody that braves the storms this week, a report or PM would be appreciated.

Up the North end of the lake in the river section above the bridge should be great but the lake is about 6' high right now. Travel carefully up there, many hazards. Black and red jigs, creature baits flipped to cover. Good luck

Sounds about right. Finally get to fish TB and the weather is going to be all jacked up. Oh well, I'll be back next weekend rain or shine. Did ok again yesterday. Pretty much everything we tried produced, just not a lot of numbers. Boat houses, cypress, hydrilla beds, hay grass all had a fish or two. Didn't fish deeper than about 10'

Did pretty fair yesterday flipping boat houses and Cypress trees in San Miguel and Patroon. Got several in the 3-6 pound range in water 5' or less. Going back out after breakfast.

How deep?

Going to hit it next week on Thurs and Fri on the way to my tourney at TB. Ill post up a report for ya

Btw, any top water action going on?

Headed over this weekend to give it a try. Putting in at the 6/21 bridge area. Anybody have a report please shoot me a PM. Jerry, if you happen to see this, check your messages.

Counting the minutes!

Sorry to hear that Mike.

Pretty likely I'll make both. Sharon is a maybe for TB.

Got to fish with Felix again today and had a hoot! Hit a couple different ponds that both had bass eager to be caught. Chad got a bonus channel cat and Felix caught the lunker of the day, a 10 pound.....turtle. It was quite entertaining watching Chad nearly get bit while attempting the hook removal. Glad he was a good sport about it!

Felix was in DFW on business today and met up with me and my son for a little pond fun. The bass were not too hard to come by on Senkos although a little on the small size. As always, glad I got to see you buddy!

d**n the luck Mike! Glad you have time to fix the boat before the road trip . Hopefully that grass is staging a comeback as we speak.

How's the fishing Mike?

Glad to hear LBH is well! Enjoyed meeting him at the Fork Road Trip 10 or so years ago!
