So it seems, Chris, Bert, and jerry will be there for sure through the weekend. Felix, you still in? I'll be there Friday only it seems. Y'all wanna do a bragging rights tournament Friday? That way we can at least show off our fish to one another at "weigh in".

You gonna spot us 15lbs or so??

Haha, I need every ounce I can get. I have struggled out there for the most part this year. Hopefully that changes this week. I would love to put someone on some good fish!

Good luck guys!!!

Sounds fun!

To you Bend veterans -  be sure to take good care of Chris and Felix.  They both are newbies to the lake and could really use some of your guidance and knowledge.

Long Mike, when you heal up & wanna make a trip to the Big Pond let us know!

Yep road trip II, and how did the scan go?

 

 

 

Catt,I just looked and they have 9 gates cracked open on the spillway.  Too bad they can't send some of that water to south west texas.  Hopefully they got some with this system that went through.

Yep.....Felix will be here Thursday night.

Chris....what did I tell you about tires at last year's RoadTrip? 

 

As a reminder: http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/trailer-tire-blowout.html 

I know, I know.......that was the only thing I didn't replace on the trailer/boat that was questionable.....as soon as the one blew......I knew to replace all 4.

Thank you Glenn.

Yea the lake is above 172!

Take care of yourself Mike, hope to see you on the water somewhere next year!!

I'm staying a mile away at Fox's but hope to meet up with whoever is there that evening for dinner. Let's stay in touch and make the most of this.

Dinner sounds good.

So.......ya'll tearing up the fish?

Mike hate hear to of your accident hope ya heal up fast.. Becareful with those clots..

Good luck and tight lines to the ones attending. I would of liked to make it up to the lake for the weekend, but i had prior commitments for the elite series on the sabine. Hope we hear stories of big fish in the boat!

Jerry, shoot me a text or call when your coming to the lake and we'll all meet up for dinner

Flying down now. Feel like a kid on Christmas morning!

C'mon guys.  We want some catch reports.

The quick report is that the Sabine is flowing muddy water like crazy into the lake. It's over pool about a foot as I understand it, water I've seen is stained. Lots of boats on the lake but didn't see a lot of catching. Sharon and I got on the water at lunch time and tried the grass flats on the north side of Housin. Lots of junk floating in the water, hard to keep a bait from getting fouled. Moved to the south side and picked up a couple shallow and then one off a dock. Continued fishing docks and ended up with a dozen or so 12-16" fish from 4-13' of water. My WAG is that these are bucks moved up to look for a place to bed. Big mama should be close behind.

Wow Bert, nice catch!

Jerry says he's sprinkled it with Tony's and there will be a coonass feast tonight
