And just like that the water in Six Mile was 63 to 65 and they bit this afternoon. Caught 12 in three hours. Biggest was 4 lbs. 

Wish I could say the same for San Miguel. It was tuff today. Seemed like they got lock jaw are moved back out a bit.

 

Nothing was up shallow today. I did find some out in the creek mouths in 6 to 10 foot but they were finicky bad today.

    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

It seems like it’s always opposite up there verses here. All of them were 1 to 6 feet deep and aggressive on a wiggle wart, traps, spinnerbait, and a brush hog. I was beginning to think those baits quit working ?

Looks like a pretty breezy weekend.

Headed to The Bend tomorrow, gonna launch on Bayou La Nana at the boat launch by the 191 bridge. Any suggestions? I'm thinking shallow plastic, reddish in color. Start shallow and head deep.

 

@Amateur Hour - yep, but gonna warm up nicely!

When night time temperatures are higher than the water temperatures you will see a significant rise.

Y'all catch them for me.  My trip got cancelled by this crazy market.

We did our best. Only managed 2 keepers this morning and a few dinks.

I would say it is around 7 steady with 12 gust.

 

Minnkota doing the job well.

 

1 to 3 foot of water.

 

Watermelon red plastics trig'd 

Not Toledo, but we had a 25lb bag today on Rayburn fishing 12-18’ with crankbaits. 

Not the only one and not the biggest one this morning.

 

Let's see how many guys can figure out the pattern with just a pic lol.

Bass hit top water 365 days a year.

 

It's my own specieal technique that is the trick.

Just came back off the water. Rain picked up for a few hours and the bite slowed.

 

Managed to scratch out 9 more but all were no keepers.

 

Then pulled up on my fav hump and started slamming the buck bass with a square bill crank in pearl and black back color.

 

Had 17 bites and landed 12 of them, everyone of them were stuffed to the gills with shad but sadly they were all non keepers as well.

That makes perfect sense, especially due to the dead grass that grew up on dry land and is now up to five feet deep. Makes it aggravating to fish horizontally with any kind of bottom style bait. Either flip it or keep it going cause if it hits that dead grass it’s not coming off. Can’t rip it or ease it out. The whole presentation is ruined. So, flip it, slower than normal sink it, dead and I mean dead stick it, or let er rip on top of that dead “stuff”. Y’all know what I wanted to call it but can’t cuss on here ?

Once heard that top water isn't any good until the water hits 70°. Well that's been proven wrong. Nice fish man.
