EQUAL PARTS COACHING & CATCHING — 85 FISH

WHO I FISHED WITH: On Thursday, January 4, I fished with first time guest, Mr. Bill D., a retiree who spent his working life in both the onshore and offshore oil industry.

 

Bill found me through a Google search on the Internet and booked a trip with me while he and his wife were staying in their travel trailer in the Waco area on a little getaway from their home outside of Houston.

 

Bill has his own 17-foot Express center console with basic sonar and trolling motor equipment aboard, and wanted to experience more about white bass fishing than simply pulling a slab up and down off the bottom.  He told me, “I’m just a retired engineer who is looking to improve his self-taught fishing methods.”.
Here’s how the fishing went…

Next available dates are Jan. 9-11 (AMs)

 

PHOTO CAPTION: Bill’s primary interest was in exploring tactics beyond just bouncing a slab up and down at “spots” that may have produced in the past.  I exposed him to four cool water tactics, and provided him with a practical, successful experience with three of them.

 

 

PHOTO CAPTION:  Just about every half-day trip is producing multiple largemouth bass with a least a few surpassing four pounds.  This morning, the first five fish we landed were largemouth!  This was Bill’s largest of the trip; it weighed 4.25 pounds on a certified scale.

WHERE WE FISHED: Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir

WHEN WE FISHED: Thursday, 04 Jan. 2023 (AM)

HOW WE FISHED: 

We had a dense fog all across Central Texas this morning, so I pushed us back 15 minutes and, with fog still in place as we began our trip, provided Bill with a thorough explanation of why I brought the tackle I brought. I brought  slabs for snap-jigging, I brought slabs for smoking, I brought jig heads with soft plastics for fishing horizontally, and I brought jig heads with soft,plastics rigged for deadstick fishing for suspended fish. So, however we found the fish presenting themselves, we were prepared with a presentation to approach that scenario with.

 

We found that while the fog persisted, the fish were very sluggish, therefore, we used snap-jigging to target these fish which were so close to the bottom, there was no target separation between them and the bottom as viewed on Garmin LiveScope.

 

As I observed Bill‘s technique, I found that he, like many folks, was essentially lifting and lowering his slab, instead of snapping it upwards, and allowing it to freefall to a sudden, jolting stop.  I have done a lot of experimentation with this and found that the latter is much, much more productive. Using Garmin LiveScope to help guide our efforts, I worked with Bill on the fine points of his jigging stroke, and he almost instantly began to improve his results.

 

With the fog still in place, but with the orb of the sun now visible through the thinning fog, fish began to get more active to the point where we saw that a slow-smoking tactic would begin to out-produce snap-jigging. We rode that slow-smoking horse as long as practical , using the thumper as a metronome and using Garmin LiveScope as our guide as to when to engage in the slow-smoking tactic, and how far up off the bottom to bring the lures with that tactic.

 

As we begin slow-smoking, we started off with white, 5/8 ounce Bladed Hazy Eye Slabs.  As the fog cleared and the sun brightened, we found fish deeper and changed over to a 3/4 oz. slab to get to bottom more quickly.

 

Right around 11 AM, we observed a noticeable slowdown in fish activity. Fish were still suspended, but nearly immobile. This allowed me to bring on the third tactic to introduce Bill to, which was dead sticking with a soft plastic  on a 3/8 oz. jighead tied so as to hang perfectly horizontal.

 

Once again, using LiveScope to focus on fish highest up in the water column, we continue adding fish, albeit at a slower pace, right up until they quit around noon.  If you’re a detail oriented person, note this detail:  Over 70% of the fish we caught on the deadsticking tactic were hooked on the stinger hook tied to the line tie of the jighead, NOT on the jig’s single hook.  That is statistically significant!

 

We wound up with 85 fish in the boat, including 4 freshwater drum, 7 largemouth bass, and 74 white bass.

IT WAS NOW OR NEVER — A FREE SKIFF TRIP FOR ARMY KIDS

WHO I FISHED WITH:  On Wednesday morning, January 3, I conducted the third SKIFF trip of the 2024 season. My young guest this morning was Lohann Ngounou. Lohann turns 10 in February and had never fished nor been aboard a boat before.

 Lohann‘s father, Stephane Ngounou is what is known in the military as a “geographical bachelor“. This means that he, for the sake of family stability, has left his family in one place, while stationed at another. In this case, Sergeant Ngounou’s family is in the Orlando, Florida, area  for continuity’s sake in schooling, jobs, healthcare, etc., while he is here at Fort Cavazos. He knew upon receiving orders to Fort Cavazos that it would not be long after his arrival that he would be headed overseas on a deployment.  Sergeant Ngounou, originally from Cameroon, came to the U.S. in 2019 and has served for three years as a mechanic in the U.S. Army.
ABOUT SKIFF:  SKIFF trips have been provided to military families at no charge since May of 2009.  SKIFF is funded by donations from Austin Fly Fishers, The McBride Foundation, & Austin Subaru.  S.K.I.F.F. provides children of military personnel separated from their families by duty commitments with the opportunity to fish.  SKIFF trips are also provided to Gold Star families who have lost their service member.  In mid-2019, SKIFF began providing trips to kids of bona fide disabled veterans.  I conduct these 3.5 hour adventures on Belton Lake and Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir year ’round.  Call or text 254.368.7411.

WHERE WE FISHED: Lake Belton

WHEN WE FISHED: Wednesday, 03 Jan. 2023 (AM)

HOW WE FISHED: 

We had a raw, cold, damp, north wind with gray cloud cover, preventing any kind of a warm-up this morning.  Under normal circumstances, I would have recommended postponing this trip, however, Lohann was only in Texas for a short window while on holiday break, and I had no other open dates to offer before his scheduled return to Florida, so, we pressed on.
Unfortunately, although they attempted to follow my clothing recommendations, both father and son arrived underdressed without gloves, hood, or neck wrap, and only light clothing, albeit layered.
Anyone reading this who has done likewise will recall that you can only get so cold before that cold  completely commands your attention. Before wrapping up the trip early due to cold, both fellows were shivering pretty hard as they held up the fish Lohann landed as a memento of this father and son time spent together.
On top of all of this, the fishing was pretty difficult . Although birds did materialize, they only stayed active for minutes at a time chasing fast moving schools of hybrid as they turned on and turned off just about as quickly.
Lohann landed a mix of white bass, largemouth, bass, freshwater, drum, and hybrid stripers, with an unusually heavy stringer when it came to hybrid stripers. 6 of the 17 fish Lohann landed were legal sized hybrid.
With his pair of loaner gloves on, I had Lohann using the three-quarter ounce slab just so he could feel it strike the bottom, and so it could pull line off the spinning reel spool, even when his gloved fingers  added some resistance over top of the reel’s spool.
I found that observing the bird behavior closely allowed me to get in front of the direction of the fast moving hybrid stripers. I would simply leapfrog with these flock of birds, allow Lohann to fish for the hybrid as they passed under and around the boat , and until they had completely moved upwind of us, then I moved the boat upwind of the birds once again, and so on, until the birds finally dissipated.
This is one of those trips that I am sure neither father nor son will ever forget; it wasn’t too much fun living through the cold, but it will be much more fun to talk about in years to come!!  Adversity builds character.

WE THREADED THE WEATHER NEEDLE — 105 FISH

WHO I FISHED WITH:  On Tuesday morning, January 2, I conducted the second SKIFF trip of the 2024 season, welcoming aboard Miss Aaliyah Smith, age 10, and her friend, Nevaeh Ponce, age 6.

Aaliyah‘s uncle and father figure, US Army Staff Sergeant (E6) Danny Roybal recently left active duty where he served as a cavalry scout, and joined the Texas National Guard.  He is bound for the El Paso/Juarez area to help secure our nation’s southern border there.
Nevaeh’s dad, U.S. Army Staff Sergeant (E6) Leo Escadero, is an infantryman currently on active duty at Fort Cavazos, and is away from home participating in field training exercises prior to deploying to Eastern Europe later this year.
The two men served together both a Schofield Barracks in Hawaii, and now here at Ft. Cavazos.

WHERE WE FISHED: Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir

WHEN WE FISHED: Tuesday, 02 Jan. 2023 (AM)

HOW WE FISHED: 

We really threaded the eye of the needle today weatherwise. We began the morning with chilly conditions, but avoided the calm, clear, post-frontal scenario that hit us in the overnight hours.  We got to fish with some scattered clouds, slowly warming temperatures, and an easterly wind, which, only hours later would usher in a cool rain event of about seven hours in duration.  This storm system would drop about an inch and a half of rain area wide.
Our fishing took place in the relatively balmy temperatures and easterly winds in advance of that rain, and the fish really responded well to it.
Aaliyah had limited prior fishing experience from a previous trip with me when her dad was away at a school toward the end of his time on active duty, and Neveah had no prior experience. Despite that, the girls landed a total of 105 fish with a majority of those fish coming in the last 90 minutes as the easterly winds peaked.
With my two young, inexperienced anglers aboard, I kept it as simple as possible and focused only on using the slow smoking tactic with Bladed Hazy Eye Slabs (5/8 oz. & 3/4 oz. in white) complemented by Garmin LiveScope. Whenever the fish slowed down, instead of transitioning to snap-jigging as I would have experienced anglers do, I simply moved the boat, and tried to find fresh fish and get an initial, aggressive reaction to the novelty of our lures appearing amongst them.
One interesting observation over the past several trips on Stillhouse… I’ve noted that the deeper the water I fish in, the higher the fish are to rise up off bottom and suspend above it. I’m going to continue to observe this and see if there appears to be a trend here.

STARTING OFF THE NEW YEAR RIGHT – 124 FISH @ STILLHOUSE

WHO I FISHED WITH:  On Monday morning, January 1, I conducted the 2024 season’s first SKIFF Trip just for military kids.

My young guest today was Bentlee Carlucci (age 8).  Bentlee’s father, U.S. Army (retired) Sergeant Anthony Carlucci is a bona fide 100% disabled veteran who medically retired and now serves other veterans through his employment at the Veterans’ Administration (VA) hospital in Temple, TX.  SGT Carlucci served for 8 years in the 14T military occupational specialty, working on the Patriot Missile system.  Anthony joined his son on today’s trip.

Bentlee’s father found out about this fishing opportunity on the Fort Cavazos Area Facebook Page, courtesy of Mrs. Denise Igo.

PHOTO CAPTION:  I’ve fished Stillhouse for over three decades, and have never seen as many largemouth bass mixed in with my white bass catch as I am seeing this year.  I have had better quality fish show up as bycatch, but nothing like the numbers I am seeing this year.  Young Bentlee Carlucci latched onto this 4.25-pounder with a Bladed Hazy Eye Slab.

 

PHOTO CAPTION:  SGT (retired) Anthony Carlucci is a disabled veteran now serving disabled veterans through his work at our local VA hospital.  He and his son, Bentlee, landed 124 fish in 4 hours as a cold front pushed into Central Texas.

 

PHOTO CAPTION: A 1/2-pound to 1.5-pound white bass is one thing, and Bentlee got accustomed to hauling plenty of those in, but, when a submarine-like freshwater drum bit, it took him a bit more time to subdue it!

WHERE WE FISHED: Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir

WHEN WE FISHED: Monday, 01 Jan. 2023 (AM)

HOW WE FISHED: 

I was very encouraged by the weather forecast this morning because although I knew it was going to be cold, that cold was being brought in by the passage of a cold front, which meant the incoming winds would be from the north and west and would be increasing.

That scenario played out perfectly between roughly 9:30 and exactly 11:33 AM, during which time the northwest winds steadily rose to ~14mph with higher gusts.  During this time, the fish really turned on well.  In our first two hours on the water (7:30 to 9:30), Bentlee and his dad landed exactly 21 fish.

As the wind picked up, they landed an additional 103 fish in the last two-hour block.  If that doesn’t underscore the impact a cold front’s arrival has on fishing, I don’t know what does!!

We relied on just one tactic today in an effort to keep it simple and keep fish coming over the side of the boat for my young client.

We simply employed 5/8 oz. and 3/4 oz. Bladed Hazy Eye Slabs using a slow-smoking tactic used in conjunction with Garmin LiveScope and a thumper.

Now, if I’d had more experienced folks aboard, we would have used a snap-jigging tactic after the fish slowed down and no longer expressed interest in slow-smoking, but that technique was overly technical for an 8-year-old, so, whenever the fish slowed down, I just moved us to a new group of fish, and that panned out well.

When all was said and done, the Carlucci’s put together a 124-fish catch, consisting primarily of white bass, with 4 largemouth bass and three freshwater drum mixed in for good measure.
