I fished the lake on Sunday, July 7th with my tournament partner Iain for the very first tournament ever held on the lake. It was a hot and still day, with sunny skies and daytime temperatures over 95 degrees, and a steady northwest wind at about 8 mph. The water clarity lakewide was about a foot to a foot and a half of visibility. We spent the day targeting fish in 3-6 feet of water in the morning and 8-20 feet of water as the day went on with a drop shot and a neko rig on bridge pilings on the shaded side. We finished the day with a limit of under 16 inch keepers for 8.63 pounds which got us 8th place in the tournament. We also managed to catch several good over sized fish, including a 3.50 pounder and a 4.05 pounder, and we caught around 25 fish in total! All in all it was a great day on the water and the lake is fishing great if you can find areas where the fish are grouped up, but there is a lot of dead water on the lake, so get behind those graph screens and get to finding them!

TPWD did an excellent job at creating a new fishery in north Texas! Bass were fishing excellent in flooded brush with lots of vegetation. Green leafed trees seemed to hold them a little better than dead ones. Get out there while those fish still haven’t seen any pressure and baits. Can catch them in large schools up shallow. Flipped and drug around a 5” senko tx rigged. If not hitting on the fall, they would bite shortly after you pop it off the bottom. If you miss one or hook one and miss it you can flip right back and get them to eat again. Over all 30+ bass caught mostly in the 2lb range but was able to get quite a few over 4 easily.
