Comments: Jeff Pope's group returning from a fantastic adventure at Lake Huites Lodge, fishing six days. Even with back-to-back cold fronts, Jeff reports catching between 80 and 120 bass per day. Areas toward the dam are holding the bigger bass. Although Jeff's group struggled to get any real trophies, they did manage and reported several bass 6 to 7 lbs. Mike Knight's big group had the advantage at the lodge this week - they were lucky enough to corral Manuel Salazar as their guide and reported several fish over 8 lbs. with unbelievable numbers caught during the day. Five inch swimbaits and five inch Senkos produced the best. Bass continue to be moving up for the spawn and the catch rates for topwater will only increase for the next two to three weeks.
