Roosevelt Lake

Friday, May 17, 2013

The Roostertales Bass Club fished Saturday May 11 on Roosevelt Lake. There were 20 boats in the tournament. Fifteen boats returned limits. The three biggest bass were 7.17, 6.73, and 4.38 #. The three biggest bags were 15.5, 14,22, and 12.95 #. Water temperatures were around 70 degrees, and fish appeared to be mostly post spawn although there were some bass on beds. In various areas of the lake- both main lake and major creeks- bass were chasing shad along the shorelines. Various patterns worked including topwater, crankbait, jerkbait, senko, spinnerbait, frogs, and worms including dropshot. Although the dropshot bite was solid through the day, the fish were reportedly relatively small compared to the reaction bait fish.

Our next tournament is on June 29 at Bartlett Lake from 6 pm to 2 am. This is our annual Roostertales OPEN tournament. You can sign up on the site under the Memorial Open tab or at the lake prior to the tournament.

Roosevelt Lake

Monday, May 21, 2012

The Roostertales Bass Club had their monthly one-day tournament on Saturday, May 19 at Roosevelt Lake. Water temperatures were in the low to mid-70s. It was a beautiful day with light wind. All teams weighed a limit. Most teams were culling through the day with many fish in the 13-inch range caught. It appears some fish are starting to move deeper with fish caught from shoreline to 20-feet. Techniques widely varied, including topwater, senko, fluke, dropshot, crankbait, and jig. The winning bag was slightly over 12#, with the next two bags over 9#. The largest single bass was a largemouth around 4#. The Club’s next tournament is our first evening/night tournament on Bartlett Lake on Saturday, June 9. If you have interest in fishing our club, our next meeting is Monday, June 4 at 7 pm at the BassPro shop meeting room on the second floor.

We fished at San Carlos lake this weekend May 14, 2011. The lake was down over where we seen it last year but still good size.  Fishing ending up being pretty tough with no one bringing 5 fish to the scales but we saw some really good size fish come in.

Marshall and Budinger won the tournament with 16.47 lbs supported by a 7 lbs and 5 lbs fish.  They said they got them mostly on jigs.

Second place was secured by Bothun and Smith with 1 fish weighing in at 7.96 lbs

Third places was won by Brooks and Williams with 3 fish weighing in at 7.47 lbs

Our next tournament is our open at Bartlett Lake.  Come out and fish with us on June 11th, 2011 from 6pm till 6am Sunday
