Quillback Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 A great day to be out, seems like we get one of these about every two weeks or so. I had low expectations as far as fish catching, but it turned out to be a decent day to catch fish. My main fish catcher was a 2.8 Keitech on a 1/4 oz head. Fished it real slow on the bottom, slow like dragging a football jig. Most of the bites were deep, in the 20-30 foot range. Moved around a bit, but when I found fish there were usually a few in that spot. Found a good bunch back in a creek and another good bunch on a main lake point with trees. I caught 5 or so on the Ned rig, but the test on the Keitech. 21 bass, 6 were keepers and a bonus 6 lb. walleye. WT 42-45. A few boats out there, but it wasn't crowded by anymeans.

BilletHead Posted February 14, 2023 Posted February 14, 2023 Good day for you Jeff and spot on about the weather. @curtisce called me last evening and wanted to know if I wanted to go to Spring River in Oklahoma. We found some White Bass and crappie in the deeper part of the river near the lake. Water was glasslike most of the day. The black vultures greeted us at the launch.

Dang vultures, I've seen some reports of them eating the black plastic seals around car windows, but so far the ones around here don't seem to be doing it (yet).

Fayette County Lake in Texas, has a terrible problem with the vultures eating everything on trucks at the launches and parking lots. It is mostly due to the Mexi's and their cast nets and then cleaning all their Tilapia at the launches. BilletHead 1
