The morning was good on the twin lakes but nothing compares to the afternoon I had at peach creek. I have to to tell you that I didn't decide to go to the Cody ranch until Friday afternoon. Chris and I got into the water and I decided to try a top water popper. First cast, BAM a 6lb 15oz hawg. Second cast, 3.5. Good start to say the least. The wind was strong out of the southwest and it was hard to fish. I switched to a spinnerbait to run it just above the moss and was rewarded with another 6-15 monster. Along the way I had landed several in the 4-4.5 range. The wind was beating me up, so I started heading back and low and behold, BAM a 7.25 hawg. I got back to where I caught the first fish and again switched to a top water popper. I proceeded to catch a 5.0, three 4.5s and lost 3 that I know were at least 4.5 and probably closer to 5 or 6. And I got pictures. Never caught any dinks, even the smaller one were in th 15" size. None were harvested. My best 5 totaled over 30 lbs. WOW!!! Just decided to go on a whim. My son-in-law Chris could only watch and take pics as I had all the luck today. He did catch several 4 lbers.

Y'all did well, Randy - congratulations for a couple of nice days up there near Centrahoma! You now know why several of our members - myself included - love fishing at Cody Ranch so much.
