Lake Palestine Fishing June 14th 2010

Had a fishing trip with the Mc Gaughey family on Lake Palestine on Monday the 14th of June.  With all of the rain we've been having, the lake level was really high.  When the water rises that fast it stirs everything up and brings food for the fish..... which makes fishing slow! We didn't get a single bite with the rods, but we did catch some catfish on jug lines, and that made the day!

Sam Raburn Stripers and Bass schooling

We went on a fishing trip from June 1st thru June 4th at Sam Rayburn.  It's an annual fishing trip made for the week after school lets out.  We stay at a marina with cabins on the lake which makes it nice not having to launch or load the boat but once.  The bass and stripers are very aggressive with the water warming up.  They school up to the surface during the hottest part of the day to feed and will hit about anything that you cast out there.  It rained in and around the Lake Sam Rayburn area while we were there, which was a nice change, because we sure haven't seen it in the Lake Nacogdoches and Lake Palestine areas.
