I fished Toledo Bend for the Hobie Bass Open Series. Weather was brutal with a winter storm cold front and high winds blowing through. Found success with natural looking jigs along structure such as docks, brush piles and boat ramps. Also found early success with small soft swim baits under docks as well.

Launched from Fin and Feathers yesterday and spent most of the day in North Housen Bay fishing drains leading to the backs of creeks. I marked a ton of fish, but with the wind as bad as it was it was hard to work the baits properly. I caught one solid 3 pounder on a Caroline rig on the edge of the grass. I was throwing a 1/2 oz. Tungsten bullet with a 4 foot leader and a 2/0 strait shank worm hook. I had a fluke I pour on the business end. It is similar to tilapia magic. Toledo Bend’s grass is recovering nicely in the south end of the lake.
