March 3 – update from Russ Johnson at the lodge:

Alan Sharp from Pampa, TX caught three fish over 10 lbs. Most boats catching 80 fish per day, excellent day on the water at Lake Baccarac Lodge!

The fish are concentrated in the back of the coves; using watermelon lizards and white spinnerbaits is producing the best numbers, while the big fish are coming on suspending swimbaits. We look forward to having you down at the lodge!

March 3 – from Terry: Wow! What an incredible big fish day with Greg Riggle catching two fish over 11 lbs.!

Gustavo Alameda and his friend Paco came all of the way from Spain to fish Baccarac and they say that this is the best fishing trip of their lives. Since arriving last Friday, they have caught six fish over 10 lbs.

James Bradley’s group out of Texas also caught two fish over 12 lbs. I’m sure James, who was not able to come with them, will be mad he could not make the trip!

Lures: White spinnerbatits, 1 oz. are will the hot lure. Many boats are catching 80 fish a day.

March 2: The Mike Wilson, whose group fished Feb. 27 – March 1, reports: “We had another great trip. Not as many fish as last year, but not bad. We had 4 fish over 10 and 4 over 9 lbs. We also had boats that caught up to 80 fish a day. The food and service were fist class. Hot weather and cold margaritas just go together. We can’t wait until next year. Thanks for everything.”

The weather is HOT! Close to 100 degrees but a cool front is expected to move in in the the next day or so.

We have seats on several charters out of El Paso this month that we need to fill. Call the office if you are interested for dates.
