Barrett Lake Fishing
Got me a ticket to fish Barrett Lake for Sunday May 27, so at 1:30am, off we went to get there before the 5am gate opening time. A few Red Bulls later, we were on the lake.
The lake is almost at full pool and is very different from years past, when it was around -75 feet below full. We figured out that the larger fish were in deeper water and started to target them instead of opting for the fly-lined senko route for many smaller fish. Got a nice one fairly early on (and never take a photo with friends standing behing you) http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0043.JPG Eric was up next, hooked to a nicer grade model, on 6lb Power Pro http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0044.JPG http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0045.JPG Glamour Shot http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0046.JPG A steady pick on 3-4lb fish continued throughout the day http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0048.JPG We fished until about 6:45pm with the last 2 hours being very productive on crankbaits, jigs and spinnerbaits for the typical 1-2lb Barret Lake bass. The bass and lake are looking really healthy!! 2 more Red Bulls before the return drive and home by 10:30pm! Another nice day on the lake http://www.senortuna.com/pics/data/500/IMGP0053.JPG |

Cool Ed,
Thanks for the report. Is the lake really tube friendly? and where can I get one of them cool looking hats? Perry |
Re: Barrett Lake Fishing
Perry, you talkin' about my sweaty old hat :D :D or the SWBA hat Eric (EB) is wearing?
Don't make fun of EB, that boy has more bass knowledge than just about anyone I know ;) I hate those hats, reminds me of the ones we wore playing baseball in highschool! If you really want one, let me know and I'll hook you up. Ed |
Re: Barrett Lake Fishing
No funnin' intended. I was talking about the SWBA hat Eric is wearing. I like hats that have that type of mesh on them as most of the skull caps nowadays sit too tight on the noggin' :o
