Fishing Reports

spinnerbaits, pop’rs, 5 inch senkos

Happy New Year! Four clients returning to the US from the lodge – Gil Wright, Denis Bootenhoff, Shane Ryal and his son – all caught their personal best! The numbers are still low but the ones caught are big!

Gil Wright 13.6, Dennis Booterhoff 11.13 ..The bigger fish are in 25 ft water laying underneath the shad, You can run the banks right now wth Watermelon lizzards and catch the smaller fish in good numbers…..Chino, Sixto and Narlin have all been on the water last several days

Russ Johnson report from he Lodge ” We have had 3 days of improving catch rates. The 5 inch senkos seem to be the ones producing much better than the 7 inch. We have starting picking up the bigger fish in more shallow water mixed with the bank runners. I caught a nice 11.3 on a senko late afternoon and Narlin caught 2 fish over 11 on 5 inch senkos” The water temp is now below 67 degrees ( I have no idea if that matters )

Jan 6th report –half day fishing 5 inch senkos, 1/2 oz spinnerbaits, 4 inck swimbaits, and Rico Poprs.. Numbers are picking up providing you stay after it hard. We are finding alot more fish on the bank now and a few bigger fish mixed in with those smaller fish Overall slow big we did land 4 over 10 on topwater late yesterday fishing off the points near the rehab area.. Our guide Pedro seems to be on the best bite

Jan 7th the morning The best 1/2 day report in sometime. John MC while fishing with guide Jesus caught 15 fiish with a 10.5 and 10.1 being the biggest two ..along with a couple of fish over 9 pounds.. 4 inch shad knockers caught the bigger fish and the smaller fish caught on Rebel POPRS

Another JAn 7th report – Brian Carla just called in a a good report. Taking 7 inch pearl flukes and dipping the tail in Chartuse scent Brian caught 9 fish over 7 pounds within the first hour after lunch and the pattern held the rest of the afternoon. His morning session was slow for size and numbers but the afternoon was much improved .

Brian noted that fishing on Baccarac is world class and he could never go back to any other lake!!!

Jan 8th morning report /// Early morning topwater seem to be good with Leo Osborn hanging a real monster and losing before it reach the boat…5 inch swimbaits produced about 15 more fish for Leo in the back of the coves casting into the schooling bass…
