Merry Christmas!!!!

The last couple of weeks the weather has been unpredictable with some nice days and some windy and wet days.December 2011 is one of the wettest month in years we almost got as mush rain as the whole year put together,its raining today with temperatures in the mid 40's and wind out of the north.
the fishing continues to be excellent not many numbers but quality fish every day fish from four to 11 pounds also the gizzard shad are moving in to spawn and also the thread fin chad in around big flats close to creek channels with some kind of pit gravel,i have been catching fish in four to 12 feet and also in deep water crawling a live magic chad or mag fluke with heavy weight and slow crawl,jigs with a lake fork flipper or a peca craw as trailer in twenty to thirty foot of water are working great just feel for the junk and slow it down to a stop and count technique. river fishing has been good but there is a lot of stumps to look out for and also submerged fence lines with four inch steel pipe that go out to the river some are before Oscars and the other at white House Creek.    
Lake level is at 277.79 and the water temp is at 58 and up to 60 late in the day when the sun shines.monster Bass will start to gorge on mega Telipia and we are starting to find them floating some times you can save them if you find them in time.
We want to wish every one a Merry Christmas and happy Holidays from me and my Family....
