  • Richland Chambers Fishing Report - TX

    It's hard to believe but I haven't been on the water since right before Christmas and it's already eleven days into the New Year! Don't know about you but I'm getting "Cabin Fever"! It's not because we didn't have some Customers scheduled to take a trip the past couple of weeks, but every trip it was either too Windy, Cold or even a day or two we got some much needed rain that caused us to cancel a fishing trip. I do believe that this week we'll change all that as I have a trip scheduled on Thursday. I also have Friday and Saturday open and both days look more like Spring than Winter with a South breeze and temperatures in the 60's! Someone just needs to call and say "Let's Go Fishin'!"

    Last year during the January thru March timeframe, we continued to catch LOTS of Channel and Blue Catfish. I anticipate this year will be the same. Seems that it never gets too cold to catch those Cats and it's also the best time of the year to catch a really BIG BLUE Cat well over 30 lbs or so! We will be fishing the timbered area of the Richland Creek in water ranging from 20' to 30' deep. The Catfish move a bit deeper as the water gets colder. Danny King's Punch Bait on a # 4 treble hook fished right off the bottom is the key to success. We also always drop a bit of sour maize or range cubes in the water to attract the fish.

    Let's look ahead to some fishing opportunities you can take advantage of! They include:

    *Openings this Week on Friday and Saturday.
    *Lot's of open Weekdays in January and we also have a boat open on Saturday, January 31st.
    *MLK Holiday is open on Monday, January 19th.
    *In February, we have a boat open on most Saturdays and a boat open on President's Day, Monday, February 16th.

    I know it's really early to be thinking about the School Spring Break, but March is just around the corner and we're already booked on all of the Saturdays in March except the 14th. Spring Break Week in DFW is the Week of March 8th and in Houston the Week of March 16th.

    You need to book those March thru May Spring dates you want now as April and May Saturdays are just about all taken also. Lot's of Weekdays are still wide open!

    Here's hoping we get to see you soon!
