Fished with Bubba Smith and Byron Turner today the day started slow but it picked up and when the front blew in the fish turned on the weather was hot and no wind but it got up to 25 out of the north,had one over 10 pound a 9 pounder and some heavy 5's.

Jerry Gold was in the store and he did real good had one over 11 and a couple of 10's and he had a great day!!! Jerry use to fish with my Dad and he will always remember when they fished and so do I and it's good to remember some of the good old fishing trips.

If you would like to fish Falcon give me a call,the next months are going to be out of control and we are going to hook some big ones!!!

February 16- The weather is finally warm. We were getting tired of the brrr cold so now we are ready for some good fishing. Water is starting to get warm 61 degrees morning and up to 65 degrees by the afternoon. The day temp is about 80 degrees and the water level is at 299.62 ft. Hopefully we can keep the great weather a little longer. Fish are starting to move shallow. Spinnerbaits are working in about 2 to 8 ft of water so are the common plastics like brush hogs, lizard and worms. Fishing was tough the last few days with the cold weather but the folks from Bass Champs still found the big ones taking over 40 lbs to win the contest. The biggest weighing over 12 lbs. It is going to start soon so make plans to come down to Zapata. We will upload some good photos in the next couple of days so stay tuned!!!

February 10th 2011
February has had about 4 good fishing days, with the cold fronts and high pressures it just messes with the fish and fisherman high winds and cold temperatures I am glad we are in for some hot days.
The fish are ready and this weekend it's going to bust wide open,we hope this is the last of the monster fronts and the water gets back to the 60's and the fish start on there spawn.
Basschamps will be fishing on the 12th and they are going to have a great tourny ther is going to be a lot of big fish hooked and it may take 40 pound or better to win,I am going to be on the water as well with some customers and I can't wait,just cleaned the tank and it's ready for some Hawgs,
Fished with Chris and Kent on the 7th and 8th and the weather just did not help the wind out of the north one day and then out of the south the next about 15 to 30 m.p.h and then on the 9th it was brutal and cold with the wind up to 40 m.p.h we landed some good fish but they did not come easy.
The next two weeks it's going to be a lot better as long as Mother Nature and the weather worms up,it wont be long till we are wearing shorts and saying only in South Texas.....
