Reservation Number : 39783
Property Name : Blue Rock Lake
Reservation Date : 05/18/2024 All Day -
Total Fish/Sizes : 13 to 4.6 lbs
Lures Used : Most effective was dark colored T-Rig lizard

Wife and I fished Blue Rock from about 6:45 to 3:30 with a lunch break on Saturday under mostly sunny and warm, calm conditions with a nice dense fog to start the day. Lake is full, very clear, and a thick vegetation ring around the shallow. perimeter. 

The catch rate was spotty with 13 landed scattered throughout the day. Quality was spot on though with 1 just shy of 14in and harvested and the remaining ones 2.5 to 4.6 LBS - healthy and hard fighting! 

Tried lots of patterns and depths, but pretty much only thing that worked was an 8in dark colored T-Rig lizard worked just off the edge of the grass line as it transitioned to deeper water. We could not call them up to anything higher in the water column. 

Beautiful weather, great ranch, and fun day!
