Lake Russell

Nobody really bothers to post any details nowadays, so i thought i would post how our trip to Russell went this past saturday. First, it was VERY crowded! I found out later that a long line tournament was being held that i wasnt aware of. We only caught 15 between the two of us. However, they were some good ones!! These two broke the 2lb mark.15.5" each. All our fish were LL, with 1/16 roadrunner heads and 8lb line at .9-1.0 mph. Best colors were pink and john deere. We fished 8-20' with water temps ranging from 53 early to 56.8 in the afternoon. Not many creeks that you can LL at Russell that im aware of. We hit Pickens, Allen and Coldwater throughout the day. All of them were PACKED! Especially Allen creek. I think I will go to the Hill this saturday. Its been at least 3 years since ive fished down there. Should be getting prime.
