I got a few days off and am coming up from Texas to fish on Barren with my Dad. Its been too many years since I got to fall fish here. Has the lake turned over yet? Any buzzbait action to speak of?
What you do is get a hotel in Emory and fish both Fork and Towakoni. They are both on my list now that i live in TX.
Im not far behind you man. I will be headed to Texas in the very near future. Hope life treats you well in Utah.
Only problem is I have been voting for Bradley Roy... A rookie from KY who is in the same region.
What carter said. The dirt on the bottom is private property. The water itself is not.
You like em ribbed for her pleasure eh?
Yeah, I remember hearing they were going under a while back. So I kept watching and got some of their topwater frogs on clearance. *****, cuz they had some very good stuff to put to market. ...
Texas Rigs are one of my favorite rigs, They are super versatile and easy to rig and use. First, how to rig one. There are a number of recources on YouTube to show you how to rig one, but is a...
This is the same mindset I have to get into when I wade fish the bays in TX. There are stingrays and bull sharks that can ruin your day for sure. But I just perpare myself as best I can and trust...
Just remember guys that when you go fishing, you are closer to these things than you realize, but they are more afraid of us than we are of them. Its a scary thought, but if you are near a river...
I would like to repeat what crappipappy said...
The Toothpatch trick will get you a violation, as they are getting mroe common on Largemouth. I dont know if it is hybridization causing it, but...
The creek that feeds it is Pennsylvania Run. It doenst have enough water in it to really support any fish... including gar. If there is a Gar in that lake it was put there by somebody.
Yeah, if I couldnt walk to this place, I wouldnt ever fish it.
Good call on the warmouth. Talk about Little Fish Syndrome. Its like the spike lee of fish.
I was thinkin snakehead as the meanest too. I hear Bluefish are evil fish. Fisherman say you can watch their eyes and they are actually looking for an oppurtunity to bite you with those nasty teeth...
Oh and some wacky rig hooks and some 5" senkos in green pumpkin and watermelon red
I cant answer much on crapie stuff, but the plastics stuff for bass is pretty easy if you keep it simple. Some 2/0 and 4/0 EWG hooks, some lead bullet weights from 1/8oz-3/4oz. Brush Hogs, Beaver...
Do I actually have to be a "Good" fisherman? lol... just kidding...
Turnhole Bend Trail leads down to a good area to bank fish. If you feel like gettin wet, you can wade/swim across the river to the big gravel bar and have a very large stretch of bank from which to...
Hey guys, headed to Barren to camp at the Narrows all weekend. Thought I woudl try and get some kind of report before I head that way. I can see the wtare levels, but that doesnt tell me temps, or...
4.7:1 - 5.2:1 ratio. I would reccomend a reel that is known for long distance casting as long casts are a requirement when fishing a deep diving crank. I really like my BPS Pro Qualifier for...
I partially agree here. If you spend the money and get high end quantums, they are great. But I have never bought a quantum for under $100 bucks that didnt end up in the trash within 6 months.
So let me get this straight... you guys dont want laws enforced that make our waterways safer? Right....
This operation is just a push to stop intoxicated driving. I am all for them running...
Black max isnt a bad start for a beginner. Although I will say there is something to be said for starting out on a nicer reel. Typically the braking systems **** on cheap reels leading people to...
I dont notie them moving any deeper or shallower. I just notice that they tend to be more aggressive and hit moving baits a little more on a full moon.
Translated "Im gonna get my fingers back out of the snapping turtles mouth and have them sewed back on tomorrow evening."
I have also heard to fish walking upstream because fish in a stream tend to face upstream to look for food coming at them in teh current, and this way you come up behind them instead of lettin em see...
Went this morning, but was pretty limited as i just had my toes worked on and I cant get em in the water. I dont want a nasty infection. I managed a pipsqueak slam. One fingerling bass on a jig,...
Im glad you had some luck at Fishermans park. I have never had much luck at the FINS lakes around louisville. Tom Wallace, Fishermans, Miles, McNealy. All entirely over pressured. Your best bet...
Here is a question I have had for a while. Do you tend to parallel the contour of the ledge as you fish? Or do you position your boat in deep water, and throw your lure on top of the ledge and drag...
That makes my mouth water. Im gonna have to get me a trout stamp afterall i think.
I tried fishing cherokee once. BUt it was Gin clear and I didnt see a single sign of life. Not one fish. So I kinda just wrote it off as a place not to fish.
Thats a good lookin shirt man.
I have never had hook issues with ANY strike king products. I hear it all the time, but have never personally had a fish get off after i stuck him.
If I end upnot moving out of state, I am gonna try and take his eliminating water class. I would also like to book him for a good guided trip to learn some summer tactics.
I love the red eye shad. I have pretty much abandoned my Bill Lewis Rat'l'trap in favor of the red eye shad. Unlike other lipless cranks, if you like to reel and let it sink or yo-yo, the red eye...
I have eyeballed that creek on google maps a few times and wondered if it had anything in it. I bet it is as nasty as Bear Grass judging by the areas it runs through. This thing is a canal that...
Thanks for teh heads up tim. I have a few clousers and a few wooly buggers, havent fished with em yet. I may take you up on the trip someday as i need someone who knows what they are doing to help...
Gotta ask Tim... as a newb fly fisherman with a 5wt rod, what should i try out on otter creek to catch a few fish?
When are you headed down? If it is within teh next week or two, I would fish along the original shoreline on points, fish back in the jungle, and maybe throw some traps along the rock walls just...
Congrats on the Yak man... I am still waiting to have teh money to just go do the deed (been waiting for 2 years). Hopefully all of this overtime will make it work for me.
I do my part...If it is over the size limit and under 5 pounds, its gettin fried.
Yeah, the Tarpon 120 is probably one of the most purchased fishing kayaks out there. In addition to the Tarpon, the Ocean Kayak Trident with the Rod Pod is very popular. You could also look at...
When teh water ets up in the woods, you can always find a place to not get teh kids tangled up in the trees along rock walls on the river channel. Find a log laying vertically against the rock wall...
Im in the same boat. I dont want to spend much more than about $600 on a Yak, so unless I find a killer deal on a used one, I am going to pull the trigger on an FS12T here in the next few weeks. It...
Wish I had something to trade on that Hi Standard. It would make a great partner for my Dads 6" Barrel Hi Standard Sentinel. It has the same 9 shot 22 setup as yours. I would put that wheel gun up...
I like memorial day. You get up early and fish while the ski boat crowd sleeps off the night before. Then you come in and eat breakfast and take teh family out to tube for a while and do some...
Heys guys, just looking to sell my Jeep. Need to get somethig a little more fuel efficient since I am driving 50 miles round trip to work. Its a 98 four door 4.0 straight six and an automatic. ...
I hear ya on the original wiggle warts. Too bad you would have to give somebody three lucky crafts to make an even trade with what they go for on ebay. I have looked into buying some pre rapala...
