Just back from Falcon Lake TX

Just got back from Falcon Lake TX where it was 86 degrees when we left Fri.am. Fishing was TOUGH! Lake is the highest it has ever been in 25 years. We were flipp’n cactus and deer stands ! We fished from Fri.30th Jan. till this last Friday and lucky to have caught a total of 30 fish all week in my boat. One group tallied a couple of 25# stringers/5 fish but overall SLOW. In our group of 6 we had a 9.2#,8.9# a few 7#+, numerous 6’s and 5’s. The quality was there but not quantity. Two buddies hired a local stick and they only caught 9 fish all day. Would love to return when water is much lower but a 21 hr. road trip will take awhile to recoup from . E-mail me if you need any info about roads or hotels etc. By the way Ish was there during our trip and snapped a few picks of his rig and his cheeseburger .

I’d sure like to make a trip down there some time.
Fishing may of been slow, but at least you were out of the FREEZER for awhile.
Congrats on some great BASS, am sure many would like to see some pics.
thanks,
Jack

Anytime fishing in 80+ degrees in mid-winter is awesome!

Last year I went to Orlando and fished for 3 days with a buddy of mine. He knows the Toho chain like the back of his hand and has caught numerous fish over 10lbs in it. We caught 3 fish total for 3 days (1-3lbs and 2-1lbrs)!! And the last day we fished a tourney! 1 small 1lber for it. So catching 5,6, and 8lbers would have thrilled me! To his defense..the fish were in between spawn and post spawn and I wore a heavy jacket all three days as it was in the low 40s at night and mid 60s during the day. And the wind blew from the north. Those Florida fish do not like the cold.
