Report:Henderson 6/2.....6-5-1........

6 Bream....5 sacs...and the biggest gar I have ever caught.....2 boats close by stopped fishing and watched for 10 minutes till I landed it....got my boat fixed up yesterday at the trailer repair shop.....new carpet on new wood runners....new cranking up strap....R & R winch.....new bolts & bushings on springs....welded license plate on.(folks keep trying to steal it at the ramp)....greased bearings....replaced 2 mini lights.....

Only kept 3 nice sacs (shiners shallow).....took some crickets to make sure I got to feel a tug on the line today....threw bream back....muddy water moving in.....daylight to 11....sorry, no pics.....

Seeing a little action with the water rising has got to be a positive sign.

Nice report how dig was that gar?

Nice report Bruce.

Yep.....how big was the gar ?

around 10 pounds or more....I didn't weigh it, just wanted it out of my boat.....wouldn't fit into my rubber net unless I grabbed it sideways and let it form a circle and even then the tail was hanging out....I accidently left my phone in the truck so no pic.....

It's starting to look a little better.. Nice catch

Thanks for the report Bruce.....ranger go getter was right...Eh?about the shallow bite.

I never fish deep. Fished yesterday afternoon. About to leave to go fish tournament but all my fish are being caught about 2 ft deep and less.

Just curious Derek, you do the same at Toledo Bend this time of year? That is, if you go there. Great advice about Henderson though.

Wow he was big

Great job Bruce and mighty nice of Derek to share that info!! That's the C.c spirit.

Hey, Mr. Bruce, I would take 6 bream and 5 sacs any day of the week. Congratulations! And we will forgive you about the pics.

No with Toledo bend. There is to many brush piles and its a lot deeper than Henderson.

pic coming.......time for zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......
