Fished last Tuesday, it was an extremely tough day on the water. Everywhere where I had caught fish a a few days prior had been sprayed by the FWC. To make matters even more difficult was the fact that it's been a full moon for a few days. Started the morning fishing a Spro Poppin' Frog 60 in Black and Yellow on a Denali 7' 4" AttaX Heavy Fast Casting Rod with a Quantum Smoke S3 8.1:1 Casting Reel paired with K9 60 pound "8" Strand Dyneema Super Braid. Eventually switched to a Spro Poppin' Frog 60 in Red Ear once the sun was over the trees. I also threw an Untamed Tackle 3/8 oz. Punisher Swim Jig in Pepper Shad with a Zoom Super Speed Craw in Pearl as a trailer on Denali AttaX 7' 4" Heavy Fast with a Quantum Smoke S3 8.1:1 gear ratio Casting Reel paired with 60 pound "9" Strand Dyneema Super Braid. Only had a few gar and mud fish blow up on the frog so I moved out to some patches of lillipads that were offshore. Flipped the pads with a VMC Tokyo Rig with a 5/0 VMC Straight Shank Flipping Hook paired with a Missile Baits D Bomb in Bruiser Flash with a 1/2 oz. WOO! Tungsten Never Chip Flipping Weight. My setup for the Tokyo Rig was a Denali AttaX 7' 4" Heavy Fast with a Quantum Smoke S3 8.1:1 gear ratio Casting Reel paired with 60 pound K9 Fishing "8" Strand Dyneema Super Braid with a 20 pound Sunline Assassin Fluorocarbon leader. Fishing was brutally tough. Hopefully after a few days the fishing will improve after the FWC sprayed so much of the lake.
