Justin and his friend Optimus Hung Schwieters.....

Sorry ladies.....he's taken.  Great day to be alive and kicking once again.  Justin and Optimus (and no I ain't talking Prime) went out today and at times were unstoppable.  Me?....well um eh.  I caught 3, but 4 if you want to count my catfish.  lol, but that's a good thing. I like to see my clients catch the heck out of em and they certainly did that especially considering how tough its been of late.  Did we catch any Walruses?  Nah and to be honest I don't think we had a single Walrus hit, but we sure did have the 3-6 lb fish cornered.  We caught fish on nearly every technique today.  We fished in 20 ft of water on a road bed up to 2 foot in timber, from t-rigs to deep diving cranks with everything in between.  We also ran the lake and then some.  Very fun day to say the least and I hope to someday have the opportunity to take these fellas out again.


I planned on posting a detailed report, but I have been REALLY busting my butt on and off the water of late.  I also wanted to time it with the grand opening of my new website.  Is it done? well closer than the last blog entry. lol.  I could of rushed it, but I have a great web developer working on it and he has done a fantastic job.  He can't fish a lick, but he tries hard.  Don't quit your day job Danny!



Total fish: 35
Best 5: about 28 lbs
Kicker: we didnt have one.....had several near 6 (5.11 was the only one weighed, but had several the same size)

One more trip left in August.......

.....then its on to September.  I will be posting a detailed report over the next few days to let people know what to expect at this time here on Falcon.  Kiddos start back to school tomorrow and are very excited to start the year.  Football season is right around the corner and have my folks heading to town a week from today.  My dad's 10-1 PB will come under fire.  My new website that I keep talking about is done and will go live within the next day or two.  I am pumped to say the least.

The ball n chain......

..... And no I'm not talking about the wife. Lol. I'm talking about the ball n chain from www.paydirtcustomjigs.com.   This has been blistering hot of late. The falcon fluke on the back is as good as it gets. We are also using zoom mardi gras mag flukes. 3/4 oz or 1oz depending on depth and wind. Dennis caught the big fish of the day on the 1oz with a falcon fluke in the ugly color. Yes that's the name of the color..... Ole ugly. We ran out of ball n chains today and that really hurt us. The fellas I took out today are hardcore dusk til dawn experienced Falcon regulars who have fished with some falcon icons such as Charlie Haralson. We did not tear em up by any stretch..... Well I didn't. Lol. At one point I thought my first ever falcon skunking was heading my way, but that didn't happen luckily. Dennis and Donnie are loaded back up with ball n chains and will give em hell again over the weekend without me.

Total fish: 14
Best 5: about 25 lbs
Kicker: 8 lbs

Cancelation.....again

Well Steve didn't answer the bell today after partying all night with Billy from TLCbaits.com.  This month has been tough with cancelations and no shows.  Comes with the territory I guess.  So I went out today around 11 for about 4 hrs and scanned and mapped some more.  Today was by far my best day scouting.  I found some great stuff that I am very excited about.  I fished for maybe a total of 30 minutes and did pretty well.  No giants but several fish between 3-5 lbs. Another words, a lot of fun.  I have Dennis and his buddy tomorrow.  I am going to mix in at least one new spot tomorrow.  Should be fun.

late start....early finish.

Took Steve and Ryan out today and they wanted to sleep in after catching the 10 lber yesterday and only fish a half day today.  The plan was to get out at 10 and fish til 2.  Well we got out at 11 and fished til 1.  lol  Fish were biting, but they were worn out and burnt and partied hard the night before to celebrate the DD club.  Steve bought some steaks and came over for BBQ as apposed to fishing.  Not a bad deal. I have them again tomorrow, but they were hanging with Billy from TLCbaits.com tonight last I had heard.....might be another late morning effort coming.

Another day another PB.....

Today was a short day. Victor and Travis only had a few hours to fish today before they had to leave. Travis made short work of his old PB by catching a beauty of a bass that tipped his bogo grips to 8 and a quarter. I have Steve the next two days, yes that Steve. Lol. He's back already. I gave him a few spots to hold him over until we fished together. Well a 9-3 and 10-2 later I think he's off to a good start to this trip... Lol.

Hardhat....

Wow.....tough day.


Total Fish: 10
Best five about 19 lbs
Kicker: 8 lbs (me unfortunately)


I have these guys again tomorrow.  Its been on again off again here of late......let's hope for on tomorrow.
