Went to my old faithful this week. Little Alabama. Caught 3 bass on Monday, 1 today. My wife tagged along today and we did catch a decent amount of bream, but most were too small. I usually take a week off in April every year around my birthday and make several trips there. Almost always catch a limit or at least close to it. Not this week.


You did better than I did. I think the water was a few feet lower at this time last year.

Went run the boat at the bell city drain ditch. Fished for about 90 mins. Caught one choupique. Ran about 20 miles though. Itd been 6 or so months since the motor has gotten any work. Ran great.

Does anyone know how long the drawdown in Henderson is supposed to last? I need to go take my kayak to them pits while it’s down. Like fish in a barrel right there.

A couple of weeks ago I took my son fishing. He was begging me to go. But his motivation was he wanted to make a YouTube video with me. That kid has an obsession with “youtubers”.

But hey, whatever gets him into fishing. So I took him to Little Alabama and set him up with a wacky worm. We caught enough for dinner. After about an hour and a half he just wanted to eat snacks and watch me fish. It’s a start.

We were supposed to head out there that same weekend, but some things came up.

On another note, I saw on Facebook someone caught a +3lber at good ole 2 O'clock Bayou

I saw that. Pretty sure he didn't have a scale and guessed the weight. It looked a little skinny. Still a decent fish.

ETA: That's another place I haven't been all year.

I don’t know but it seems like October/November they usually start raising it again? About a month ago it was falling hard and I happened to get lucky with the timing. It since came back up and dropped even lower.

I was fishing there almost every weekend at one point. Moved last year and have only been twice this year. Got skunked both times but the scenery was nice.

So I finally got over to Two O'clock this morning. I was worried that with the cool front, full moon, and clear skies that it would turn out to be just a leisurely paddle. But I actually found a few fish. Every single one was caught super shallow in the boscoyos.




Enough for dinner.

Hell of a trip. did you paddle all the way to close lake? I doubt I'll be getting to fish there until spring with hunting season being in.

I actually caught most of them just past the train tracks. Never even made it to Cowan Bay. The closer I got to Cowan, the nastier the water got. The water was beautiful closer to the train tracks.
