Without Faith it is impossible to please God. Faith is acting opon God's Word.


Well hello everybody Bass fishing has been tough this last week with Bass only up to about 3 lbs. being caught. Alot of schooling action from smaller Bass on shad which makes for some great action but the Bigger Bass have been laying low.

Lake levels have dropped about 2 feet in the last 2 weeks making the overall Lake about 6 feet low. Bass have been hitting poppers and the Frog bite has been very poor lately but you know fishing the next day the Bigger Bass could go on the feed and begin to get under those smaller Bass deeper in the creek channels making for some awesome summer action.

Boathouses are holding some Bass and creature type baits in your many different watermelons have been catching. The Sweet beaver and baby brush hog have been working for us.

Wacky worms in watermelons and bubblegum type colors have been working best lately and small crankbaits in black back with chrome bodies. Had one trip this week on Richland Chambers Lake and caught many white Bass on Little george's in chrome and one Hybrid Striper up to about 7 lbs.

If you want to book in a trip just call me or e-mail me. Call 903-478-2633 or 903-724-1203.
