Ray Roberts....who knew???

Posted by ken on July 27, 2014

I'd been on RR twice before, the day it opened, which if I recall correctly was January 1st and it was really cold. And then I took some friends over for some sand bass fishing a couple summers ago. Now that some larger tournaments are showing regularly I decided Sunday to go look it over...


Weekend on Fork with a Moonpie

Posted by ken on July 13, 2014

Fork sat.jpgSpent the weekend on Fork with Steve "Moonpie" Evans, overall really tough on us. No matter how hard we tried we could not get any fish to rise to a bait on a consistent basis. There were, believe it or not in July, some spinnerbait fish to be caught, but overall we had our best success catching suspended fish. I think the BassChamps results reflected that Fork was tough on us all this weekend as it only took 4.94 on a 3 fish tournament with 189 teams to cash a check. From the results it looked like 10 fish over were caught, which does seem a fair number for 350 fisherman, but less than sixty 3 fish limits caught. And by the way, congrats to two guys, don't know them, Jesse and Jeremy Flake, from North Zulch Tx, for weighing 3 keepers that weighed a grand total of 1.46 lbs... unfortunately there are no photos on the website of that stringer.

I don't get to the lake every weekend and since I wasn't on Rayburn weekend before the 4th I got an update from my buddy Bryan O'Conner from Cypress who was ok with me sharing it here. Thanks Bryan!


Finally Old Guy Buttons

Posted by ken on July 1, 2014

I have always hated that I couldn't trim my motor up and down or deploy my Power Poles with my foot (hand's are kinda busy up here). Finally the JL Marine folks fixed the problem with new buttons where I can deploy the Power Poles even with rain boots on. Top that off they have old guy readable arrows on them, ordering mine today!power_pole.gif
