2/10/24 Paint Creek Ramp @ EV Spence Reservoir: Saturday started with 54 degrees, a little rain and overcast skies but turned into a perfect day on the water. Cleared off by 9 am and sunny the rest of the day. All the anglers saw bait fish milling around on the surface and some large fish turned on their side. These are clear signs a Golden Algae bloom is in the beginning stages.
It was a tough day for everyone but someone always finds the fish. Five of the twelve teams weighed fish.
First place honors went the Team of Chase Lawson and Jody Morris with a five fish limit of 19.22 lbs and a healthy kicker 5.69 lbs that took the big bass pot. They took home $1220 for their efforts. Congratulations Chase and Jody.
The second place team of Chris Cobos and Julian Machuca also had a five fish limit of healthy bass. Their total weight was 17.03 lbs with a 4.42 lb kicker fish. An awesome stringer and caught on a pattern you wouldn’t expect for February.
Thanks to all the Teams for fishing the Northwest Region trail of the Texas BASS Nation Team Division. We look forward to growing with you in the future. Its not too late to qualify for the Team State Championship in September 2024. Fish three qualifying events and you’re in!! Here is the NW Region schedule.
