I fished the third and final stop of the Team Trail Outdoors TX tournament season with my tournament partner Iain on the lake on 06/15/24 and also fished the lake for the official practice day the day before. In practice, we only caught two fish, but they were a 6.1 and a 3 pounder, with the 6 being caught on a main lake point on a 10 inch worm and the 3 being caught throwing a wacky rig in the marina. During the tournament, we caught 1 of our 2.5 pound keepers on the same main lake point we caught the 6 on the day before, but instead of dragging the big worm I caught it scoping with a damiki rig in 22 feet of water. After that, we picked up another keeper in a marina on the south end of the lake, and then ran as far north as we could up into the river and caught the rest of our limit and culled three times fishing a wacky rig and a chatterbait up super shallow (1-3 feet of water) on a rip rap road culvert. We ended the tournament in 23rd place out of 188 teams with 14.10 pounds (limit pictured with the report) and snagged the last spot inside the money! We also slid up to 5th place out of over 150 teams in the AOY race for the year! The water temperatures on the lake that day ranged from 82 degrees on the south end to 88 degrees up in the river, and water clarity ranged from 3-10 feet of visibility on the south end and half a foot to 1.5 feet of visibility on the north end. It was a bright and sunny day, with morning temperatures starting in the mid 70's and warming up to the mid 90's by day's end, and a steady southeast wind at about 15 mph throughout the day! I hope this report helps you on your next trip out to the lake, tight lines!

Finding clean water is key right now! Look towards the backs of the creek channels to find areas where clean water is flowing into the lake. There will be a small school of fish hanging in the mud line. Fish these areas with a finesse setup (weightless senko wacky-rigged). As the sun rises, the bigger fish will cruise the deeper reed beds. Look for reeds that end in 3-5 fow. (Wind-blown reed beds will be best.) Pick these apart for the larger bites.
