Sam Rayburn Bass Fishing Report 4 22 19 Big Bass Splash

Спорт

This is the last Sam Rayburn Bass fishing report we will get up before the Big Bass Splash, formerly known as the McDonald's Big Bass. Got to spend a little time on the water Saturday with River Lee of the SFA FIshing team and then with my brother in law Charles "Ed" Geary trying to catch a few crappie. The bass fishing was hot and heavy early on chatterbaits and then a Carolina rig, then we caught several a little later in the morning on frogs. Crappie fishing, at least out deep, is still pretty spotty, we probably should have tried to fish over the grass but in the area we were in there's not a ton of good grass right now. See everyone this weekend for the Big Bass Tournament!
Guys MAKE SURE your:

    Nice report. For 30 years I've been a Shimano guy, (respectivley). I recently shifted to Lew's .. I just added a third Lew's reel to my arsenal..... Its a BB1 Pro in 6.4:1 for crank baiting.. Ken, you and Tylersreelfishing sold me on it. LOL ! I shopped online and at Academy...the best price on a new one was at Amazon. @ $157 It casts like a dream and out performs other reels when throwing a 1/4 oz crankbait into the wind.

    It’s Tournament MB Speed Spool LFS, model of that one is TS1SMB which is 5.6:1 gear ratio, probably better idea to get TS1HMB which is faster, 6:8:1. Also couldn’t remember the price point on that rod, it’s only $79!!! Model MHCRR

    Ken, We are coming up to Rayburn, again the week of 4/29/2019 I have a question about the inflatable life jacket, and getting a ticket. Can you confirm the inflatable life jacket for me . I do wear the inflatable just do not want to get a stupid ticket. We are on vacation so no tourney fishing just fun fishing . Thank you in advance for the help and love the videos
