Fishing in August !!!!

August heat continues and Falcon Lake  is starting to look like it always does lots of brush and humps in about the right depth for some great fall fishing! Can't wait don't get me wrong I love the hot weather but it's unbearable when the wind is not above 20 mph and the fish also feel the oxygen change in the water and they do get lazy and conserve energy the big ones are not as active as the 12 to 16 in  bass and the high pressure keeps them looked down but it changed yesterday with rains in the area and in the mountains of Old Mexico we had a great day with fish up to eight pounds.

fished with Dan and brother David for the last four days and the fishing kept improving each day we had to work hard for most bites and ended each day with about 20 to 25 bass but yesterday we had over 50 and they both broke there personal best,all on mag flukes and 10 in worms in 10 to 17 feet of water,the Lake continues to drop and it's at 283.15 and we need some rain,amistad lake got about 5 in of rain yesterday and I hope it was down stream of there dam so we can have some run off they seem to Hog the water when we have droughts and our pool will be lower by next year, if we don't gain a few feet before next year we been through one back in the 90's and it was no fun we had two great spawns and the lake is full of small fish and they need the cover to make it. Catfishing continues to be great with heavy stringers coughs on shrimp and cut bait live worms are catching huge Blue gills and small jigs are catching some big crappies in and around flooded brush and under bridge so if you want to catch any of this give me a call and Falcon Lake will always will be your favorite summer fishing lake....
