Bear-Yep right after fog and during fog some.

No orange / red letters and pins.

Was that u that caught a bass next to me on crank bait? Lol

The only keeper I had was on top water in fog at grass beds at mouth.

Then I flipped rest of day but that didn't work for me neither.

    Had 30lbs today and my dad had 14lbs in our club tournament. Our best 5 combined was 33lbs. I had 3 fish between 7- 10lbs jump off. My big fish i caught was 9.5lbs.  Lots of tournaments coming up, but

  • Well two days in & only 3 fish ?   But one was tagged BassCashBash which I was registered in, it won me a 2019 Dodge Ram!

    I thought it would be appropriate to bump this thread after hearing the bad news of @Catt's passing.  I don't fish Toledo Bend but this is a very interesting read for anyone.  I know Tommy took a lot

Congratulations Catt.... I will wait for a better day and weather to fish. I'm not mad at them but just for the record, what will these cold fronts do to them? Thanks

This front will move them out to the next break line & shut down the bite. We'll have to be methodical in our appoach to structure & cover, picking it apart completely.

My Top 3 for winter ;)

Texas Rigged Craw Worm

Jig-N-Craw

Rat-L-Trap 1/2 oz Toledo Gold

Thanks Catt

The trap, I assume will be worked over grass or where the fish will suspend. What about spoons? I don't fish them often but hear good thinks.

Usually around Christmas the grass will start dying so I'll start keying on timber more. I'll move off the main lake & into creeks starting at mouth.

While I'll move off the main lake I DO NOT abandon it!

Catt,

 

Congratulations on another granchild.

 

Staying warm.........staying dry.

 

Getting ready for the big feast.

 

What color craws work best for you this time of the year?

Black Neon, June Bug Blue Claw, Black Blue Claw, & Falcon Lake Craw

Black blue jig with yum hawg and a pb&j jig with watermelon red yum craw only caught 4 fish, largest was 3.67 lbs but had a giant get off at the boat. 15fow grass with timber very slow. Had several bites but they are on the jig. This was last Thursday, I plan on going Friday. Will let you know how I do. I did try crank bait and spinnerbaits nothing hit.

Hey bass_ fanatic how is the hunting going?

Catt, do you down size in the winter or stay with the norm? Thanks

Craw worms are Gene Larew 6", Rage Tail Lobster 4 1/2" & NetBait Paca Craw 5".

I will go from a Oldham's jig to a Bitsy Bug Flip & a Zoom Swiming Chunk 3". I make this change mainly for a slower rate of fall.

Hey bass_ fanatic how is the hunting going?

Duck season has been open for 5 days now and we have killed 139 ducks out of my blind so far.  Been a good start to the season so far!
