Big lake meat haul !!!!
 

Had an awesome trip out to big lake yesterday (10-12-09). Winds were 5-10 coming out of the East yesterday causing a 1-2' chop. First stop produced 4 nice trout. Then it was like a frigging light switch that turned on the birds when the wind died down to nothing. Water slick calm and water cleared up to about 8-12" vis. We chased birds from about 7:30 til lunch time. I know I might be a "potlicker" but at least I caught fish !!!! Had a 3-man limit of trout (45) by lunch time. It was goofing off and running from storms after that. I caught my 15 trout with the Bomber Badonk-A-Donks, which seemed to be catching all the nicer size trout. Also caught a few to help my dad and my friend finish off their limits All trout ranged from 13" with the biggest one going 20 & 3/4" (mine). Ended the day with 83 fish total. 45 specks 1---26"red (mine) 2--black drums 2 croakers and 33 white trout....ohh and one huge AZZ sting ray... that thing was 30+ # on 12 # test.. a 20+ minute fight... all in all a good day !!!

thats what i'm talking about.. A nice good trout smashing

nice going Jordan!

I love catching specks on a shrimp under a cork too!!!! lol

wow way to represent team moobs!

Good catch Jordan.

I was also out on Big Lake yesterday during the afternoon but I was going after some shrimp. Shrimping was a little slow, but the shrimp were nice size [15 to 35 count]. It took a little over 3 hours to get 25 lbs. and this did not leave any time to fish.

At 3 PM when I was headed down south......the water was almost calm and several big storms in the area. I tallked to a guy at Hebers that said they had done fairly well and that there were lots of birds working. As I road south, I did not see any flocks of birds working and when I was headed back to the launch, it was getting dark and I did not see any birds.

The water was pouring out of the wier very hard when I left.

yeah, we attempted to get through the weirs but failed. The roll bar above my center console was about 2" too high.... My buddy has a broken finger to attest to that statement as he got his hand caught between the roll bar and the bottom of the weir...

good job nice catch wish i could have been there

Nice job Jordan.
I got the text yesterday on my way home from work.
