Well, we started our day early, 50 something degs and a steady 8-10mph wind from the north, with 15 to 20mph gusts.Water temps in the low 70's. The first fish was not caught until around 11am. Can someone tell me how it's possible to catch a average sized bluegill on an xcalibur xr75. Anyways it was not looking good. I threw 10" motoroil worms, 10" rage anaconda in red bug, wat/red wave tiki craw dudes, smokin shad super flukes, wat/candy brush hogs, wake baits. My lucky Stanley wedge didn't even get a strike. My dad zero'd and in the final hour of fishing, I finally started catching fish on a hot steel x rap xr10. 3 little dinks the biggest was MAYBE a pound. We could not get them in deep water. Man, with the tons of money I spend on gear and dragging my boat 2 hours there and 2 hours back, the good fish to money spent fishing ratio is not equal.But it's always good to spend time with my dad. Oh well, maybe next time.

That right there is a perfect example...........of fishing 8-)

Sounds like one of my better days. Yesterday was tough everywhere in this area. Second day after a front, cloudless skies, and wind. Most will struggle.

If it's any consolation, 90% of the pros fishing the Toyota Texas Bass Classic on Lake Conroe just a 100 miles west of you had just about the same results.

Don't feel bad the Stren guys had a hard time as well as the college guys. First place for the college tourney was 18lbs and the 3 day stren was around 40 total lbs. Sounded like they did the best on jigs and c-rigs in deep grass.
