Fresh Lake Lewisville Fishing Reports

We have been catching good numbers of blue cats and channel cats on all of our trips. We dealt with some unpredictable weather this week, but it didn't slow us down.

When you are on them, you are on them.

I had a four hour trip this morning, and I needed a change of scenery, so I moved about 50 feet to the southwest. My guests were having a little difficulty to start out the trip with getting the feel of the bite and hook set. After about 15 minutes, they started to get the hang of it. We ended up with 21 fish in the cooler within the first hour, and that was enough for them. We finished out the trip catching and releasing. The Guide's Choice Punch Bait kept them biting, and Bobo's Thumper held them under the boat for the whole trip. We stayed in the same location and didn't move. I have a day off tomorrow and then back at it again on Thursday and Friday.

Today was my first day back on the lake after a week of vacation. I had a group of six and these guys and girls had me busier than a cat burying a turd on a frozen pond. By the time we got the second line in the water, we had fish coming over the rails. It took me about an hour to finally get a rod in everyone's hand. Tomorrow is JoJo's 4th birthday and by the end of the trip, he was my lead deckhand. He really enjoyed putting that Guide's Choice Punch Bait on the hook. We ended up keeping 26 eater size fish and probably threw back twice as many, if not more.

My morning trip was a catch and release trip, and my guests kept me busy for the first hour of the trip. If I wasn't putting some more Guide's Choice Punch Bait on the hook, I was unhooking and releasing a fish. After that, the kids got hot, so I took them to my favorite swimming spot to cool off. We went back to fishing for the last hour of the 3 hour trip, and the fish were right where we left them. I also had a 2 hour afternoon trip, and we went right back to the same spot. The fish were still there, and my guests only wanted to keep a few, so we were catching and releasing the majority of the trip.

On Sunday, I had a 2 hour Intro to Fishing trip, and we were targeting larger Blue Cats. We didn't run into any monsters but did find some nice eater size fish.
