3/24 Quick update on fishing and the lake

3/24/2019

The good news at Clear Lake is that the lake is dropping and some big fish are being caught.   The bite went from everyone struggling to put a fish in the boat to some very solid limits and days out on the water.  Starting with last weekends 133 boat tournament which was on the 16th and 17th,   several big fish are being landed and lots of fish in the 3 to 7 pound range.  The average weight per fish caught in that two day tournament was over 3lbs.   I know personally of the following,  one 14.70 lber, three over 10lbs,  four over 9lbs, four over 8lbs and numerous fish in the three to seven pound range that have been caught since and during that tournament.   The 14.70 was caught and on video by one of our local fisherman,   one of the nines was caught by my customers and another of my customers caught a 8 1/2 during this past week.    By far the most popular technique has been the “”A””rig,  then its practically everything you can imagine.   Although lots of people think they have to throw the big baits to catch a big fish here,  my customers nine lber was caught on a four inch drop shot worm and the 8 1/2 lber was caught on a Ned rig.     The fishing should only get better and the news is out about the bigger fish being caught,  it’s been a pretty busy lake even during the week.   The up coming WON Clear Lake Event, 10th, 11th and 12th of April is already seeing a lot of pre fishing going on.   There should be some fantastic weights coming in for that one.  We are heading into some more inclement weather, rain is predicted for this next week, but I don’t expect it to back the bite off that much.   The lake is still in “monitor stage”” and will remain in monitor stage until it drops below the eight foot level.   It is at 8.59 feet as of today, (3/24),  it will drop about an inch a day if we don’t get to much rain this next week.  As long as it is above eight feet, the five MPH speed limit a quarter mile offshore will remain in effect and I stress to the boaters, please follow the rules.   As of today, 3/24,  all boat ramps are open except the ramp at Redbud Park in Clearlake.
