Eagle Mountain 4-9-11

Fish with repeat guest John, Roe, Kevin, and Graham. Everytime this group fishes with me they try and pick what time we will have our limits by. Last time we went out was at Grapevine with no wind...we never got our limits that day so the pressure was on today! Picked them up at 7:15 and they had their limits by 8:55. Just one of those good days. I tried to talk them into fishing some more, but John said he really hates releasing fish and was ready to go in. These guys are a hoot to fish with and they are really good fishermen. They had me running all over the boat taking fish off. Every third fish seemed to be a keeper today, either toads or dinks. Fish were caught 12-18ft deep on Ol'Ugly Slabs/flies and Flies-By-Night flies. Color did not seem to matter today. The birds came over to play for a few minutes about halfway through the trip, but they didn't last long nor did we follow them. Only had 2 other boats sharing the fish today because of the wind, Frank and his nephew Mikey, and Trashguy with his wife. After I dropped John and his crew off I went back to do a little playing of myself. Frank put his boat on the trailer and he and Mikey joined me. We went and did some souting to get an idea of all the areas holding fish now. Caught fish in another area of the lake from 20-24ft and another wind blown bank at 12-16ft. It was good to see David and his clients out having a good time today.
