Richland Chambers Fishing Reports











2010 February 08 - FISHING REPORT

Rain, Cold, More Rain and Cold!!!! That's been the recent Weather Forecast for much of the New Year. However, like the Farmers and others that make their living in the Outdoors and off the land, I'm not complaining! We'll enter the Spring of 2010 with an absolutely FULL Lake instead of having to count on the Spring Rains to fill er' up. A couple of years ago we had a similar weather pattern and it just kept on raining thru early Summer. You know what......The fish were already wet so it didn't seem to matter to them how much rain we got. They just kept on biting!

There's really not much to report on this past week as the Weather did keep us off the Lake most of the time, so........Let's talk a little about what is going to happen in the next 30 days!

First, the White Bass and Hybrid Stripers will “turn on” sometime in the very near future. It was late February last year when we began loading the boat with really BIG fish. The Highway 309 Flats will be the place to begin your fishing. Look for the Gulls and Pelicans dipping and diving for baitfish and drop a slab below them. Usually you'll find the fish have pushed the baitfish onto a hump, ridge of channel and are feeding aggressively. Once the feeding activity begins in late Winter, we're off and running all Spring! This is the absolute best time of year to catch a double digit Hybrid Striper!

Second, the Crappie will begin to make their move to the shallower water in preparation for their annual spawn. Check out the many Coves, Creeks and shallow water bank areas that have timber, grass or boat docks in proximity to deeper water. Small minnows or jigs under a slip cork are deadly in March and April, and will provide lots of fun and good table fare!

Third, the FUN begins for Fishing Guides on RC! In our case, our boats go from being on the water once a week to six days a week. Many days, we'll conduct a Morning and Afternoon trip as the bite is good all day long! About half our trips are with Kids or Grandkids of our Customers. There's nothing more FUN than to see a Kiddo catch his/her first fish and see a smile that goes from ear to ear! Springtime, Fishing and Kids....It doesn't get much better than this!

If you're planning your Spring Break, just want to get out of the House due to Cabin Fever, or want to fill the freezer with fish filets, give us a call at 903-389-4117. Check us out on our website at www.gonefishin.biz . We fish everyday except Sunday and would love to show you a GREAT TIME on Richland Chambers!

Good Luck and Good Fishin'!

2010 January 30 - FISHING REPORT

As of this writing in late January, Richland Chambers is about a foot above normal pool level, the water temperature is in the high 40's degree range and the fishing has been good considering it's still officially Winter! The last few trips have produced some nice catches of quality size White Bass. I have heard of a few catches of large Hybrid Stripers, but we've not been able to find any that were of legal size. However, based on the number of 17” Hybrids we caught last Fall, the future looks good for the Hybrid population, and this Spring should be Great!

We've been catching most of our fish in water depths that are a bit surprising! We've caught fish as deep as 50' with the majority coming in the 35'-45' range. We're using a 1 oz. Silver Glitter Minnow Slab ( www.rsrlures.com ) and tying a small jig about two foot above the Slab. About half the fish are coming on the jig! Check out the Windsock Point as it's been as productive an area as any place on the lake for us. The reason the fish have been in this area and as deep as they are is the tremendous amount of baitfish that's congregated along the deep dropoffs on the Windsock Point.

For those of you who like to catch and eat Catfish, you'll find plenty of them in the same areas as we're finding the White Bass. Some really large Blue Cats are caught every year in the Winter & early Spring months on Richland Chambers. If you can fish on a nice breezy (not Windy) day and drift over the Main Lake Humps and Points in the 35'-45' water range, you'll usually find some cooperative fish. Small perch, shad or shrimp will get you a bite!

Spring is near and the fishing on RC will be AWESOME!!! If you're planning a Spring Break, just want to get rid of the Wintertime Cabin Fever, or want to get the Friends and Family on the Lake, give us a call at 903-389-4117. We fish Morning and Afternoon Trips in the Spring and fish everyday except Sunday!

Good Luck and Good Fishin'!
