@A5BLASTER Hard to judge weight from a picture but Hawg status for sure!

Scale said 7 lbs 10 onces.

I figure your the perfect person to ask this question.

 

How much weight on average does a Toledo bend lake female lose after she lay's her eggs?

Ya might have to ask a biologist on that one. Internet talk is all over the place, I've heard as high as 2#..

@Bass_Fanatic Couple questions 

 

Lizards: Texas Rigged, what weight size?

Senko: weightless?

Colors?

We have been from six mile up to San Patricio.  The lizard has been on a light weighted Carolina rig and the senko has been weightless.  Best colors seem to be something not too flashy.  Regular ol watermelon seed and green pumpkin.

Went last week me and the best friend boated 100 or so bass in 2 afternoons. All on black and blue Sinkos and frogs.

What part of the lake were y’all fishing?

[operationgrass]

We were in housen I’m sure this cold front has slowed the fishing down.

Severely.

 

Along with the 600 new bass boats per square mile and this stupid low water.

 

Beds I seen bass on before the front are in 2 inches are less of water now are completely dry ground.

Where y'all is!  ?

Water is just too low.

 

Going check some pre/post spawn spots and some creek and channel swings tommorw.

 

But probably going to trailer the boat for a week or two.

Need info for a boat ramp on negreet bay.

 

I see shadows and turtle beach listed as on that section of lake but not sure if they have a boat ramp.

 

Any public no pay rmaps on that lake section?

 

Looking to put in on negreet bay, so not so much boat running in a section of lake I'm not familiar with.

No free launches in Negreet. Shadows is a much better ramp than Turtle Beach IMO though.  The road to turtle beach is terrible

Made our annual trip to the bend this past weekend, had a great trip fishing was great and the weather cooperated nicely. There was 6 of us that fished Thursday evening thru Saturday, we had a total of 60 that we kept with a mix of large mouth and Kentucky the largest probably around 4lbs. We stayed in negret and fished mostly in Lanan.

[operationgrass]

I is at work lol. Y’all been catching?

[Catt]

Spent 4 days on the Big Pond, it was both good & bad.

Found a great place to stay thanks to @riverrat, he rented his camp in 6-Mile. The place was amazing, 4 bedroom, 2 bath, will sleep at least 10. 

 

Fishing was a struggle, didn't get in the water till later Saturday. Caught 3 & missed 2 absolute Hawg. Sunday brought a cold front with 20 mph winds, ended with 6 right before dard. Monday was better with 10 in about 1 1/2 before dark. 10 more this morning in about 2 hours.

 

The biggest pattern was fish out near the mouth of coves.

 

#1 lure Watermelon Neon Lizards with the tail dipped, Texas Rigged 3/16 ounce.

I haven't been out there this year yet.

[Clinton john]

Just got off the water. Been out since just before daylight.

 

Found a few groups out in 18 to 22 foot of water.

 

Did the best on a Crigged watermelon red monster lizard that I make myself.

 

Few fell too a crack bait. Nothing to get excited about, mostly post spawn fish looking raggedy and slim.

 

It's that time of year already.

[river-rat]

I had a decent day in Six Mile Creek. Started at daylight and the fish were all over a jerkbait. I was throwing a #450 A.C. Shiner and a Redfin both gold with black back/orange belly. Also caught fish on a watermelon/red glitter lizard Texas rigged. I had nine 14" fish by 10:45 and at least that many short fish. Nothing of any great size. 

 

Later in the morning I caught one over 4#'s on a Berkley Choppo. 

 

Around noon the sky's cleared and it got tough. But no complaints. I'll be here until next Saturday and will hopefully have some good reports.

We have started to see a small Shad spawn and are catching quality fish on frogs and chatterbaits around them.  We are also finding post spawn fish in 18-23’ on the main lake and catching some decent fish out there on crankbaits and swimbaits.  I also caught a giant off my dock before putting my boat in the water Monday lol.  It was dark and I was in a hurry to pick up clients so didn’t get a weight but she was pushing DD
