The Bend III

So the bend turned out to be quite a learning experience for me.  I know it did not show in the standings but none the less I learned a lot about how quickly fish can make a move to the shallows given just a couple of days, actually several hours of favorable conditions.  The week started with a mid to deep bite with fish scattered all over the place and a cold front lingering around keeping them off balance.  Well all it took is about 18 hours of consistent warming trend and boom, they all and I mean all grouped up into the funneling spots adjacent to the spawning flats.  Over all the weights were down for the event and I think that speaks of how big this lake is and how conditions can vary greatly on 180000+ acres, simply some folks did not figure them out as well as expected and I being one of those lol.  In my specific test area the fish did what they were supposed to do on day two, across the lake or way up or down river, it was a slightly different situation.  

So to lick my wounds I have spent the last few days on Falcon.  What a way to re coop.  I am down here with a close friend of mine from CA, Scott Whelton and we are having fun to say the least.  What have we learned down here, keep an open mind, fish the entire water column, and be prepared to decorate a few huisache trees, hey thats Falcon.  Oh and don't bother to eat at El Paraiso, their 'world famous chicken fried steak' is NOT that world famous, it may just keep you off the water for a day if you get my drift.
