Hit up Bastrop today with Tony 'JD'. Hit the water around 7 am and fished till around 3'ish. Started out cold and clear with winds out of the South. Then turned cloudy and still windy. We fished jigs all day around weed edges and boated around 20 or so fish between the two of us. I thought the day was going to be on fire after landing a 5 plus on my third cast. Was slow but all fish were fat and healthy. Biggest was just over 5 pounds.

Happy New Year!

I was out there from 10 to 2. Bass were schooling heavy at the entrance to the discharge, caught several on weightless senko.

Thanks! That lake is fun to fish for sure! I need to make the drive down there more often. The fish there are just crazy! I had this one come flying out of the air at least 3 feet high and then right back up again!

Great times!

I'm likely to head down there tomorrow as well if the weather holds up...sounds like a decent chance of storms.

Nice fish! Just one question. Has that GUNK still overtaken bastrop?? I fished Bastop in Oct. and vowed not to go back until some of that stuff died off. I sure hope so because I LOVE Bastrop!
