video of the Hoist from this morning LINK LINK

South Toledo Bend/ Between South Toledo Bend State Park and Cypress Bend = Yocum Bay



From Sunday afternoon to Tuesday midday;

73 keepers/bass caught on one crank bait (Rapala Shad Rap 5/Shad Color)

9 keepers/bass caught on wacky worm / watermelon seed color.... with nail in head of worm instead of traditional sinker.

23 Crappie (Sac Au Lait) 14 caught on Yo Yos/Shiner
The rest caught on crank bait above.


Lake level 169 Average water temp is 58 degrees and warming. Most bass have been male but females are moving in the coves and bays. We are catching bigger fish as the week has warmed. Sac au lait are very active at sunset and super active on yo-yos baited with shiners. Good luck guys. Heading home tomorrow. Will add more pics tomorrow. If you guys are heading this way.... It's been fun.

Wednesday - Friday morning 42 Sac au lait
8 large bass. 20 Sac Au Lait hovering around 2 lbs.

Going back... Will report back.

Just got off the phone with my dad. He's an accomplished Toledo Bend fisherman. Today was their second day. They scratched yesterday...threw everything, fished everywhere. The barometric pressure was high as a giraffes arse though. They caught their first fish today at 2:00. Wound up with 6 keepers. Top 5 was over 17 lbs. everything on a raybourne red rattletrap (fished fast). All in hurricane creek. Water temp went to 52 today.

Water should be warming up and the fish should be active. Wish I could go this weekend/week!

I haven't been in three weeks but we were catchin the shite out of them all through January on KVD 1.5 natural red craw. Make sure there's plenty of grass, and the fish should be in 3-8 foot of water.

Went yesterday, fished mid lake, water temps were high 40's on main lake in the am, mid to high 50's in the creeks after noon. We threw the boat at them, traps on grass flats, C rigs on main lake points, jerk baits, tx rigs, bama rigs, not one bite in 3 boats until 2pm. Rolled into a shallow cut with lots of grass, temp was 58.xx, started catching on baby bass flukes, and watermelon red/ pearl belly, weightless on a twist lock, worked very fast, like walking the dog. Ended up with 10 in one boat, 6 in mine, and 5 in the other. Decent day once the wind laid up and the sun came out. We knocked off around 4, no one we saw was fishing up shallow, everyone was fishing flats/ main lake points deep, and no one we talked to had caught anything.
