Crappie bite is heating up offshore with quality catches around the lake. Bluegill are starting to show up in the shallow flats and around boathouses. Remember to Stay Afloat. This week is National Safe Boating Week. While on the water, what life jacket do you wear Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3? For more information check out Texas Parks and Wildlife online and search for “Boating Safety Tips.” Remember, it is always better to play it safe by telling a loved one or friend the area you will be fishing, how many people are in your party and the expected return time. Good luck and keep casting forward! Report from Master Captain Steve “Scooby” Stubbe, Mudfish Adventures LLC, Orvis Endorsed Fly Fishing Guide, and Mudfish Custom Rod Shop.
