A buddy of mine and I tested fished this property for Steve back in June. Its a fun lake with a ton of fish on a beautiful property. Most of the fish were on the dam side or the west side. The east side is pretty shallow and full of grass so its hard to get a trolling motor back there. 

Here is a summary of my report to Steve.

We got about 80-85 fish over the 5 hours we were there. 2:30 – 7:30. Weather was low 90s. 

90% of the fish were in the 1.5-2.5lb range. We had a couple over 2.5 with largest at 3.5 and only 3 or 4 dinks. They did give a healthy tug. 

We caught most on Frogs (even at 230 in the afternoon), texas rigged senkos (in the lanes between the grass) and  spinner baits (over the top of the grass).

Thanks for sharing with the group. There is lots and lots of grass so be prepared. But there is lots and lots of bass. We need to harvest, so please remove all bass and report back to the club all bass removed 14 inches and smaller.

Thanks

One edit…the east side is ok. Its the south side that is tough to get into.

Thank you for securing this property and the one by Burnet. Both are an hour  or less from home.

It was a long time coming. Our Austin/San Antonio members have had a much more limited selection over the years. More lakes coming by Spring. Thanks for hanging in there!

Our main goal for 2017 was to procure new lakes in the Houston, Austin and San Antonio area. We have 5 added this year. Have a lead on a couple more. They often take months and sometimes years to lease.

Thanks

Steve. Your efforts to not only get additional properties in these areas, but properties that provide excellent fishing opportunities is worth noting. 

Much appreciated,

Bill

Thanks Bill. Our membership as a whole does a great job with respecting the places we lease. It sure helps keeping the lease with such a good group of members.
