The plan was to head out early and be home by 1PM for an incoming tide bite, we got to the ramp by 7:30AM and there was only 1 other trailer in the lot. Love this view:


The pads actually looked pretty good, but I can't say that the water color, it was double mocha latte. I hope this warm spell jump starts the hydrilla to help clear it up some. Water near the main creek was 71, so I tried a popper...no bites but saw lots of fish being pushed. I think I saw a few fry balls as well.


This was up Horseman's creek, carp and gar were spawning all over the place and making a huge racket. This video doesn't have the sound, but they were creating large enough wakes to disturb that little creek back behind the grass.

We ran up toward the head of the creek and hit the wood stumps and beaver huts that I usually have some luck on, but got nothing other than 1 bite that took the tail off my keitech paddletail. Water up here was 68.

I decided to look for cleaner water and headed toward the big pond, but the water was the same, 2" visibility. We ran to the back edge to try some wood but didn't see any activity. It was about Noon and then headed back in. No fish, but it was still a great day to be out with my dad. Also since it was pretty slow, I decided to record some iTracks with the Ultrex, neat feature which I hope to use a lot.
