Arrivaca Lake, April 8, 2015

I was so happy to see the water levels back up and the State did a great job with the new dock.  The day was a bit cooler that I expected and I think the water was not quite right for full fledged action, but I still had fun catching 5 14-15 inch bass, fat and healthy.  All were taken on Crystal Buggers with a sink tip line.  The fish would immediately burrow into the hydrilla necessitating the need to winch them out and peel away the greenery.  All mine were taken in shallow water near the shore, but I did see some spin fishers taking them from the reeds.  The water was a bit greenish, algae bloom?  I don't think I will make it back before the fall unless I hear of the water rising and clearing.  It should be a great fall here!
