We went Monday, fished from Waterfront to B.B. Comer, had a very good day in my opinion. Caught 9 on a frog, big fish was 5-11, best five was approximately 22 pounds. Hard to find "sloppy" mats, but that's where the fish are when you do find it. It probably changes from day to day, but the fish were WAAAYY back in the mats Monday, not on the edges. Funny story (well, NOT funny)... Possibly the biggest fish we had blow up, blew up 3 times in a row and never got the frog. This joker's tail looked as big as both of your hands together (I'm guessing a 7+ pound fish). Dadgum blow hole was big around as a 5-gal bucket. We made several more casts and that fish just quit reacting. So I picked up my sissy wand with a wacky rigged finesse worm and threw it that hole, when I flipped the bail and lifted the rod it nearly pulled the rod out of my hands...well about 3 seconds of screaming drag was all it took, joker made a fool of me!

You had the right idea. Next time try to throw it in there on 50lb braid Texas rigged with a 1/4 tungsten and HD flipping hook. I do this exact same thing. Especially if I catch one fast. Kinda like flipping beavers. There's likely a few more in there.

Do y'all punch with braid? With the water being so clear it looks like a rope. I use 20 florocarbon. 65 lb spiderwire stealth. The fish live in a jungle that rope could be chartreuse and the would still bite it! Hit it with a Sharpe if you want it blacked out

They aren't looking at the line. They are watching dinner flipping around and planning their attack.

I'll be on the G in the morning, think I'm gonna put in at Alreds and hit the mats from there to the dam. Went today. If you have a choice to put in, go up to goosepond and go past second bridge. It was pretty active this morning for us. Went up to mud after that and got a few to roll over but no takers

Big G whipped my arse this morning. The wind was whipping and it kind of wrecked my game plan. Spent the morning mostly frogging in Alreds, hiding from the wind. Had one bite on Ultravibe Speed Worm. Missed it. Maybe I'll do better next time.
