It rained in the morning but when we got there it cleared and got hot & sunny. With four poles in the water with power bait we just got tans in the sun. As the afternoon wore on the clouds rolled back in. One small trout caught in fairly shallow water.
A lot of small white knats were hatching along with dragonfly larvae and I realized why the weren't interested in our bait. I tried fly fishing and caught a couple of small bluegill in close. All fish were released (too small). The rain came back and we packed it in. Better luck next time.
Went out with the family. Nice weather nice park, first time there. We had alot of bites and my 5 yr old landed about a 2.5lb catfish on stink bait. Overall we had a good time
Hi fishermans i come from mexico but i love to fish in this lake a have had little luck with bass fishing but i know there are some lunkers there. I have little complain; in the time that i have been fishing here i notice that some people dont care about catch and release and they take all kinds of fish, i dont know with what purpose, because they take little pieces i dont think they are going to eat them, but what about the limits and sizes. I hope somebody takes care on this for the future of fishing of our sons. PD excuse my english.
have a good fishin day ......... bye
