I'm back from Florida....

Well unfortunatly I am back to this crappy weather. It is only a 55 degree drop for me. The tornado that went through central florida was about 45 minute drive north of us but we got the hardest rain I have ever seen. The lake actually came up about 8 inches that day. Anyway I go to walk n water every year and the reason it is down is because they killed most of the hydrilla in the lake a couple of years ago. Anyway, the biggest fish of the 4 days was 5.5pds then 4.75pds and quite a few of 2-3 pounders. Windy as hell the whole time with plenty of whitecaps flowing. Went crappy fishing also and managed to boat a couple of hundred 11 inch plus fish. Crappy fishing was great, most cought were males and the females we cleaned looked a couple of weeks away. I believe a lot will happen, weather permitting on the new moon. Water is down about 1-1.5 feet which you know is a lot of water on this lake. If you need any more info just post and i might have the answer. GL to anyone going to get out of this weather and head south.

That's too bad about the bad weather and bass fishing results. Sounds like you busted the crappie though! Man, that sounds like fun and gooooooood eatin'.

I flew down to Lake El Salto last September just in time to meet at Cat 3 hurricane face to face. The lake came up 10 feet overnight and the fishing really suffered. Each boat was catching 2-6 fish per day. It is a horrible feeling being on Lake El Salto knowing that the bass have BIG TIME lock jaw. I headed back in early July to try again. Can't wait!
