Amazing is all anyone can say. Last year we saw so many juvenile 1 pound fish early in the year everyone was hoping for things to come. Well, things to come are here. The number "willing" of 2-4 pound fish in the lake right now is nearly
unbelievable. Better yet, the big girls have not been shy either, and it should only get better in the coming month or so.
Putting the closing moves on July this weekend has been some of the best fishing anglers have seen in years, anywhere in the state. This harkens back to the crankbait bite we experienced in 08'/09' on the Delta. Yes, it is that good.
I'm pretty certain this is a bite we will be talking about for some summers to come, better yet it's a bite it doesn't take an expert to experience. Safe to say one can actually get bit on just about anything they want to throw. Deep crank, shallow crank, chatterbait, spinnerbait, senko, drop-shot, carolina rig, swimbait, buzz bait, etc etc etc.
My understanding is 25 lbs did not get a check today, which isn't all that unusual, except, IT's SUMMERTIME!
Anyone who hasn't been up and experienced this yet, you may want to re-consider. Call any of the tackle shops and I'm sure they'd be more than happy to send you in the right direction!
