Fished Murray this past weekend, and it was a grind. Two on the boat

Saw a couple break surface throughout the morning, and decided to switch from dropshot, to jerkbait, and on the first cast, I landed a dink.

Tried bedfishing, and they were definitely there within the reeds, but definitely ...

Thanks for the report! I'll be out there tomorrow.

Arrived at 4am with RickM and we were super excited to experience the "new" lake, and indeed it definitely feels different with the water levels so high. Parking was great and the haul down with a battery and trolling motor was much easier since the dock was so close.

The boat ride to Hauser was ...

Good luck, and let us know how it goes! Tight lines.

I was at SV yesterday at 10a with no problems with rentals. No wait and plenty of boats.

I was told by Chris (one of the workers there) that it would be more crowded than usual this weekend due to the holiday. I imagine there would still be plenty of boats available BUT there will be a lot of water ...

Anyone fish Murray lately? I saw it's been weird and the water level has been in flux the last few weeks. If you did go, how was it? I'm highly contemplating Murray tomorrow.

My buddy and I were thinking the same thing, but don't see any future dates on Ticketmaster like normal.

Usually I hit up Hodges in the mornings, but today I had a couple hours to spare, and so I decided to head out at 2:30pm – and boy was it HOT, and WINDY. :twisted: I totally forgot the wind picks up big time in the afternoon. And it's probably why I only saw a couple kayaks and a float tube in the ...

I typically get bigger bass out of Miramar by power-shotting into the tullies. 15 pound test with a 3/4oz. weight, dropshot style with a 6" Roboworm (Margherita Mutilator). I've gotten some beautiful 2-4 pounders that come back dark because they just live in there eating things all day lol.

Up dark and early on Saturday morning and left the dock at 4:30a with my son (13) and my buddy Rick. We decided to jet all the way to the end of Hauser (20 minute total runtime), which is where we finished strong last month. Covering the gaps between the submerged trees and bushes with poppers and ...

Very slow start to the day, we just had a couple bass and a bluegill on the boat by 9am.

Was at the end of Hauser when the breakers showed up around that time. There are 5 boats (and one kayak, I think that was you 619bassin ) - and we were all sharing the sporadic surges of bass that came up to ...

Missed out on any day, huge bummer. I did find the dates were in the URL of the listing though, in case that helps anyone.
