11-30-08 fish report Reel um N Guide Service Owner Lynn Atkinson Water Temp. 58 Water Clarity 2-3 feet 11/30/08 Sam Rayburn is at 157.09 ft the water temperature has been around 58 degrees. The water has been murky in places because of the wind. This week has been on and off. The best day was just beautiful with lots of sunshine that warmed things up nicely. By the afternoon we got on a pattern that was hot. After that we started jumping around picking up fish here and there and had a blast till dark. Saturday we were out again. The morning started off hot with 6 fish coming in at the first spot. Then it just died. We moved around there and couldn’t get any more fish to bite. The second spot we picked up 3 fish; one was a beauty; but it was tough so we moved on. Then next couple of places we got a few short bumps but no takers. Not giving up, we started changing baits and finely found one they would hit. With a few more fish to add to our catch we called it a day and enjoyed a beautiful sunset as we rode into the marina. I know the report is late but we’ve been working on a new data base to update the old fishing reports. There are 3 years of reports that will be available in the next few days with pictures of the week. This is a lot of info for the hard core angler to use to help get an idea of what the fish may be doing at any given time. There will be little tips and tidbits on fishing Sam Rayburn there also. The City of Warsaw is out of the water on the south side. I have had a lot of folks asking where it is. This may help you in finding it. If you’re running up the lake and you go under the 147 bridge to the long cut up the Angelina River it is just before you get to the timber line. The old Rail Road ran beside the town and unloaded rail cars there. The Crappie have been moving around a lot with some up the river and some over the brush piles. We did get out and catch a few off the New Pontoon boat that we have at Jackson Hill Marina. We are booking trips for the springs so don’t wait to long. Round up your friends and get your trip booked. We can handle up to 10 anglers on the pontoon. If you haven’t heard about The Bass Class on the water check it out on the website and give me a call. Come on down and learn some nifty little tricks that will put some fish in the boat. Just to let everyone know that BASS STRIKE TACKLE has moved into their NEW STORE downtown Zavalla at the intersection of 63 and 147 so stop by and take a look at their new place.
