Fished this property the afternoon of February 7 from noon until 4:30.
First, what a great property. Multiple clusters of standing timber with some isolated ones also. I found depths to 32 ft towards the pier.
Conditions:
air temp: 70-84
water temp: 60-64
water: good color with clarity to about 3-4 ft.
Partly sunny with a good breeze.
Now for the results. Caught 12 and culled only 1 which was 13". Three of the keepers were close to 20" and most of the others were 3-4 lbs.
Just like my recent trips to Blackjack and Post Oak, the rattletrap was very successful as I caught over half on it. This time I fished it with a steady retrieve. Others were caught on a spinner and a shallow running crank bait. I lost 1-2 on a jig and also on the rattle trap. Most were caught in 8-12 ft between the standing timbers.
Steve,Seth, and Keri: GREAT new property - thanks.
