Falcon Lake – Big Bass Assault


Robert Amaya and I fished Falcon Lake in South Texas.  This amazing lake is located in Zapata, Texas and it is the boarder between Texas and Mexico and it has structure like no other place on the planet.  In fact, people come her from all across the Untied States to set their sights on these amazing Sow Bass. 











We shot the show in HD and Andy Hickman of FN Daily News was on board with us.   If you haven’t been to his awesome site that covers fishing reports all across the U.S. you need to visit them today at www.fishnetdailynews.com.










The weather was pleasant but the 3 days of BlueBird skies make us fish with high pressure which can slow down the bite.  None-the-less, we covered water and smoked some awesome fish.  I am talking 13 bass of caliber and even one Channel Catfish.  The rod bending action was rock solid. 
 Our biggest fish was an 8.2 lb fat pre-spawn Sow Bass with a fat stomach.  We had rod bending action from the get go and Robert coached me all along the way to put me in the strike zone and slow me down when I would move the plastic too quickly.








                                                                     Anglers note:
The real trick in this type of bass fishing was to really know how these fish feed.  They inhale their bait and do NOT swim off with it.  If they feel you pull on the bait at all, they will spit the bait and you may not even know that you had a bite.
Robert showed me the alley ways to cast to and how to stay in contact with the bait and move it slowly a couple of feet and then let it sit and wait for the tap that represents the fish inhaling the bait.
 We used 5 inch plastic baits tipped with sent and color.  We rigged Carolina style and moved the bait up and over structure and let the plastic draw in the strikes.


Special thanks to Robert Amaya for an awesome fishing trip.  He said that the best Bass fishing is from May to July.   It will be hot summer weather but it will also be Smoking Rod Bending Action,…………… you can count on that.
Contact Robert at 956-765-1442 or visit him on the web at www.RobertsFishntackle.com and he can put you on some amazing fish too. 

Thanks for your time today and…………….I’ll see you…..….,in the outdoors.
