Comments: 04/10/2012 Andy Fowler reported : The first day of fishing was slow to horrible, with myself and my partner catching zero fish. We threw everything in the tackle box and never got a bite! Our guide Jesus consistently told us to fish on the bottom and I thought we were. Day two started out rather slow as well until we realized, with the help of Jesus, what we were doing wrong. We started bouncing a rattle trap similar to bouncing a jig, along the bottom. What a game changer! The remainder of the second day and all of the third day, we caught no less than six fish over 10 lbs. an unbelievable fourteen over 9, three bass over 8 and six bass over 7, all using the same technique, a one ounce rattle trap, letting it lay on the bottom and bouncing it off the bottom. It was my first trip to Lake Baccarac but it certainly won't be my last.
