Arrived in a heavy fog (at least for this part of Texas) at dawn and as I drove down to the tank I was suprised to see an orange glow from a recently drilled oil well on a nearby ranch! It was quite a site on the horizon! It was also great to see that the recent rains have filled this lake and found both creek arms completely full of water.
Started throwing topwaters from the bank but their were no takers. Launched my recent aquisition, an Utraskiff 360, as soon as the sun rose and fished till 3pm. The water was stained with perhaps a foot of visibility and there was virtually no wind throughout the day. I caught 14 bass from 10 – 18”. I tried numerous techniques throughout the day but only had success with wacky or neko rigged plastic sticks or trick worms (12) and sq bills (2). I think. the herd of cattle had the best idea of how to handle the midday sun. LOL
Can’t wait till the first cold front moves through!
