Thanks to all who fished our event. Lots of fish at the weigh in. I think everyone caught a few. Congrats to the winners. This was an individual tournament with a 3-Fish limit. Whitney is doing well. Contact us if interested in joining the Burleson Bass Club. We fish a club tournament in two weeks.
I don’t know what the payouts were, but these folks deserved every penny for getting out there in the winds…. No the lake wasn’t calm as shown in the lead in picture.
My name is Joe and me and my wife just moved out here last august… I have been fishing walling bend park for most of this time and I really appreciate the info and reports you guys get by braving the elements just to do something that few of us hold dear these days. I am still sort of an amature fisherman, although I have been fishing since I was old enough to walk!!! =) But I’m learning so much… and so quick as this is the first time In my life have lived so close to the lake. However I am having a hard time with selecting my colors, soft, plastic. DD, frog, Swim, Jerk. Rattle, spinner, surface, ect… =/ and what to use under what conditions. It can be very over whelming when you’re trying to remember all of the techniques and, what works best under each category for each combination of conditions. I love it so much I can’t get enough of it. Can’t wait till the water temp is warm enough to take my yak out!!! I would appreciate a few pointers as I know every lake has it’s own personality. I am reading your fishing reports religiously! So keep em’ coming!!! I know I can’t be the only one reading them… you should think about a facebook page and promote it… I’m sure that would land a lot more viewers. Anyways… thank you again for the reports… they DON’T go unnoticed!
Joe,
Thanks for the kind words…
We had a post some time back about the lures we use and where and when we fish them… you might want to go back through the old posts and find that one….
We are old and don’t change our ways much… we keep it simple… much like the definition of insanity, we do the same thing over and over again, expecting different results each time… and on Whitney, we get different results most of the time.
Good luck and good fishing… Walling Bend is a good area… have caught some good fish down there and some of the best stringers we have caught on the lake.
