Largemouths are really getting active. Find the shad…find the fish. Nothing big on this trip, but fun to catch no doubt.

They were eating the rat-l-traps today. caught probably 30 fish within a 2 hour window with some nice 2-3 lbers (x10) mixed in those 30. Reel it fast and rip it out of the grass.

Fish were pressured but biting on light finesse baits. Lighter the better for weight. Fish were stacked on structure changes in 10-12’ and bit on wind blown points.

Got to the lake around 11. We were pleasantly surprised to see Kyle Cortianas truck and trailer I. The parking lot. We finished touring the lake from the day before and found an old pump house on the water and decided to fish there. That’s were we caught our first bass of the day. We spent about six hours on the water and it wasn’t until about 4:30 before we started slayin them. We caught about 8 various sizes I less than 45 minutes. All by the points of the parking lot entrance.

First outing of the year. My wife and I celebrated our anniversary doing what we love, together. We hit the water around 4 pm. So we only had about an hour and 45 minutes before dark. Kurth lake is loaded with gators and has rules that prevent you from fishing after dark. It was our first time to Kurth lake so we weren’t expecting much, just to see what it was like. Lucky for my wife. Her first cast landed her a 2lb largemouth bass. Unfortunately for the rest of the time we got nothing, the batteries in my I pilot remote were dead and I was trying to navigate through my phones Bluetooth. So after that hour and fourth five minutes we were ready to leave.

Afternoon fishing after a cold front rolled through. Decided to go BFS to target bass and bluegill. Fishing was rough, tiny swim baits and creature baits mimicked the forage for late “winter” in Texas. Casting along the bank and reeling painfully slow was effective. Most bites came from the edge or submerged vegetation. I ran a Metanium MGL with the KKR BFS reel. I highly recommend it if it’s in your price range. However, the curado BFS is a great starter BFS reel for the money. The Sierra Ultra Finesse rod pairs great with it, and I was able to easily launch 1/16oz baits out.

The fish were sitting in 4-5ft of water and sitting close to structure. The new swing head and crush city Ned’s are a great combo.

Texas rigging and cranking rocks. Lake is low so it was hard to get on them good. Caught quite a few fish just nothing of much size. Last year in January I caught a 9lb largemouth on the Graham side cranking.

Water temp was 61 degrees with 10-15 miles per hour wind. Cruised along the banks casting the 3” kietech easy shiner on a weighted 1/0 1/8oz swimbait hook. It was overcast so I added a gold under spin to the weighted swimbait hooks. You can buy the loose willow blades, snap rings, micro swivels and make them your self for pretty cheap. I just slide the swivels over the hook before rigging the kietech. We caught 32 bass just slow rolling the swimbait along the reeds over submerged grass mainly in 2’-6’ of water.

Muddy water but still holding in the mid 50’s. Started off throwing hybrid hunters, cranking grass in the middle of the river. Switched over to 6 sense swank for better colors in the muddy water and started focusing on stumps and found some bigger bites.

Focusing on river channel banks I found a big population of bass grouped up around rock piles and timber. The Mayor swimbait is very effective at slow speeds so it worked great. The bass did not want to chase very far. Fun trip!!
