I woke up at 6am intent on hookin' up the old boat and heading north to he Hickory Creek ramp at Lake Lewisville. I needed to test-run some things I had done to the 'ole Merc. Didn't make it out the door till about 9:30. I know I know lazy but hey, it was my day off.
Hit the water at about 10:00am. Skies were clear, the temp was in the low 50's with a north wind blowing about 10mph. I didn't expect to get much fishing done and I was right. I spent most of the time making little tweeks here and there trying to get the Merc to settle down. Man I need a new boat.
The fishing I did get done wasn't successful. I mainly chunked a Rapala ShadRap and a new bait I got from a maker in Abilene. Hag's Tornado F4. Loved the action of this 4" ring fry like stickworm. VERY SLOW sink and traps air bubbles for even more action. I look forward to fishing this bait other than wacky rigged.
Good luck at the Tournament!
