Bream Fishing at Lake Jackson- 4/7

Post by bman »

Ran home after work and changed into my fishing clothes.
Dad had the boat hooked up and ready and we were in the water at 6:30.
Picked up a box of crickets from the bait shop at Sunset - Can't quite say "Oyster Island Bait and Tackle" :wink:

We got to our first spot about 7pm and started catching fish.
Fished the grass lines and caught them on crickets- They were in 6-8 feet of water but only about 4 feet down the water column.
There is something really nice about watching a cork slide under the water :D

Came home with a dozen nice bream in the box.

Amen to that :thumbup: :beer:

Seriously awesome bluegill, Bman, but do you really eat them unscaled and uncooked? :wink: :lol:
