Mitch and I will be fishing there when they open the gate 7:30ish. If anyone wants to join us, that's where will be!

Good luck out there, let us know how you do.

You guys otta stop by coyote bait, we got some new stuff in and i'll be working 6am-12.

I know Coyote turned to chocolate milk :9

Has the pass storms dirty the water any at Calero?

I looked at Calero on Tues and the water has a green shade to it, not too bad, I was expecting brown. Chesbro on the otherhand is a bowl of choclate milk.

Jeff,it was tuff as nails out there today!x( I didn't get a single bite.I saw mitch get 1 about 4#s dead sitcking a spinner bait.(he backlashed and when he got the tangle out the fish was on).Joe went with me in the boat and he got one also about 4#s on a JUMBO shiner.
The water looks good but it was still real cold.I thik we need some good old sunshine and this place will bust loose!:-) You can almost get into the creek in bailey.Clint & I are going to shadow cliffs tomorrow,I think it will be alot better than calero.
Good luck if ya go.I would try deep water stuff at around 20-30'.Spoons,dropshoting,and JUMBO shiners.

Yeah, got my first fish of '05 there last week, fishing from the bank -- just a little drop-shotted 2-lb'er, nothin' to write home about, but at least it didn't take me 5 or 6 trips into the year to get my first fish, like it did last year!!! The ponds give me a chance to brush up on my flippin' skills, too!

Thanks for the heads-up!

p.s. yeah, I've done that dead-sticked spinnerbait routine a time or two myself -- ain't that somethin'? Don't know if I'd want to keep doing it all day long, but it gives you a clue about 'giving them something they don't see all the time,' eh? Or at least the value of slowing things down sometimes! I guess, as long as you keep gettin' your line wet, *anything* can happen!

I didn't get any, but it was good to get the Four Winns out again -- she fired right up, rarin' to go (whew)! Anyway, I didn't get any bites, but some other guys said they got a couple. One was on a jig, the other on a split-shot green weenie, anywhere between 10-20 feet deep (they weren't exactly sure), over by the rock wall. Others I talked to said they were blanked, as well. Beautiful day on the water, regardless.

I left a BnT card with a tuber in a u-boat out there. He may be stopping by here on the website. 'Clayton,' I think his name was? He said he had heard of our club. I think he said his brother fished one of our Opens at Clear Lake.

He said he wasn't fishing so much today, as he was playing with his new toy: a new AquaVu underwater camera. He didn't see any bass, but he did catch a view of some crappie or bluegill. Too bad -- I've caught a glimpse of some nice Calero bass with my Atlantis cam on occasion, here & there around the lake. One problem with the cameras, though: you end up cutting into your *fishing* time, plying the depths with the lens. It is kinda cool seeing what's down there, though -- and *really* cool when you see some nice fish cruising by!

Hey -- the EAGLE is back! Last fall when I saw him (her?), he was still all brown, but now he has the stark white head & tail. I saw him fly into a treetop in Oak Cove, & from there he just surveyed the whole inlet, for at least an hour & a half. I drove right beneath him in the boat, just checking him out. Man, those birds are so awesome to see in the wild. Nothin' beats it! Sure wish I coulda caught one & tossed it up on the shore to see if he'd EAT it! Now, *that* would've been impressive!


Maybe next time!
