Report: Black Lake 2/1/2016

Got to do a little fishing today. Momma wanted to try her Cane Pole out. Josh told me to throw it in the Lake and tell her it blew out of the boat. She got to catch fish on that "thang". Beautiful day and she took some pics. Kept 35, had 15 we threw back. Fishing in 13 feet of water, fishing 12 feet deep, using Popsicle, Bayou Booger, Chartreuse Sparkle, and Blue Storm.

Looks like you'll had a great day on the water. Nice looking fish also.. Thanks for the pictures and report..

Good catch, love the pictures. I miss fishing Black Lake, just so far to drive now that we moved.

Thanks for the report. Was that water muddy?

Pretty mess of fish and glad to see a cane pole still catches

Awesome pictures! Thanks for the post!

Maybe a little muddy. It's about 2 feet high and falling fast.

Nothing like family time on the water! And the fish are a wonderful bonus! Makes a healthy relationship!

Beautiful looking fish.Love the fact caught with cane poles also.Thanks for the report.

Nice catch Brother Maxwell, you add any extra weight to your rig fishing those 1/16ths?

Jimmy, I use 1,2, sometimes 3 of these. They are 1/4 ounce each. It depends on the current or how fast I am trolling. And they are re-usable. I buy only 1/32 and 1/16 jig heads and use 1/16 the most. I used 1 yesterday and place it 3-6 inches above the jig. Hey, works for me. LOL!!!

Great post Brother Warren.

Nice box of fish, Brother Maxwell. Congratulations! Was that Black lake over at Campti? Looks like the water is at the top of the boat ramp. Was there a lot of current? My wife wants to know if you are up to cooking enough briskets to feed 100 ladies towards the last of April? Love me some brisket from Brother Maxwell.

That is Black Lake at Campti. Water is about 2 feet high according to a friend who lives there but its falling fast. That was at Dickson's Landing off of Cooley Loop. There was a little current, it was not bad at all. As for the Briskets, bring'em on. Just let me know the date.

The close ups of the sinkers remind me of pac-man

What a beautiful place to fish. And beautiful fish to catch. Love those Cypress trees.

Great trip and pictures. Nothing wrong with a cane pole; I remember when that was all I had; was all Dad ever had.

Grew up using cane poles and still like to use them.
