Spinnernbaits Worked Well This Round
Wind has been making it tough for us to go kayak fishing. Really would like to catch a few more Keeper White Bass for another Beer Batter Fish Fry. 20+ mph winds had us shift to bank fishing. This time fished Bethany. Was a tough go with no strikes on a crankbait or a spinnerbait with a plastic worm trailer. Removed the plastic worm, and started hooking up. Caught five Bass and lost two others. Fun stuff!

Just a Cloud... Struck Out This Round
Checked out Lake Lavon this morning by Little Ridge Park. Had a little rain but was just a cloud passing by. Wind was brutal though. Worse... struck out with no fish caught. Oh well, better luck next time!
Lake level remains low; saw several areas that we liked to fish in the past closed due to low water. So, maybe it won't be just a cloud passing by next time!

Note: Mentioned Ticky Creek Park Pond in the Podcasts; it is actually Ticky Creek Park on Lake Lavon.

Windy and Waves This Round
Headed to Ticky Creek Park for more kayak fishing. Boat ramp was closed but not an issue with the kayak. Launched from the beach without an issue. Windy though and water was rough. Had a tough time hooking up. Did get a Yellow Bass and a White Bass after getting a good workout in! Both went for Crappie Jigs.

Elk Hair Caddis This Time
Started out fishing a Grasshopper, then switched to a Foam Damsel Fly as well as a Tube Popper Fly and a Balsa Popper Fly. Had strikes but just were not hooking them. Went to an Elk Hair Caddis in Size 14 and started hooking up with Bass and Bluegill! Fun stuff, even had some good tunes in the background from the Summer Sounds Concert that the City hosts.

Yesterday's Catch for a Beer Batter Fish Fry!
Cleaned the White Bass that we caught kayak fishing yesterday. Took the extra step and removed the "red meat" from the fillets, and then cooked them using a Beer Batter Fish Fry recipe that we got from a kayak fishing magazine. Made some changes here and there to the original recipe for the batter and the tartar sauce. Had a tasty meal this evening! Check out today's video and the recipe video below!

Another Round... Foam Grasshopper Worked Well
Fished Bethany this evening. Started out fishing the Red and White Tube Fly that we used yesterday while kayak fishing. Had a strike and a miss, and then a hook up with a Bass. Then, after no takes for a while, switched to a White Foam Grasshopper in Size 12. Managed catching a couple more Bass, then lucked into a bed of Bluegill. Caught a number of them, then switched to a Green Foam Grasshopper in Size 10. Was able to catch a couple more Bass that went about 13", and then closed the round with one last Bluegill! Fun stuff!

Kayaking for White Bass this Round
Hit Lake Lavon at Little Ridge Park this morning. Took kayaks out this time and did some kayak trolling. Managed to catch a few White Bass. Only six were Keepers but still had a good time and a good workout!
Used a Red and White Tube Fishing Fly, a Red and Chartreuse Crappie Jig, and a Chartreuse Slab. Caught most on the Red and White Tube Fishing Fly!

Another Round with a Balsa Popper Fly
Another round with a Balsa Popper Fly this evening at Bethany Lakes. Caught six Bass, there was a Bass #7 but it came off the hook, and then out my hands when I picked up. It got away! Had a fun time, liking the jig hook on the popper fly!
