I was up at Toledo Bend for the 4 Th. It was way too hot for me to fish but my son in law did night fishing Friday night and Saturday night. He fished deep water trying to catch a big one. He caught a 9 or 10 pounder and missed two more big ones but he does not know how big. He was fishing with his nephew who is about 12 or 13 years old. Needless to say the boy was excited. That was on Friday night. Saturday he and his brother and the same boy went back. This time no luck. No strikes or anything.

We tried worms up and down the bank everywhere, and threw almost everything we could find around boat houses... Couldn't get a single thing to bite... The only luck we did have was around 9:30-10 in the morning and we ran into some schooling bass in a cove but they would take it and then let it go... Very unfortunate, the first time I've ever been up and there and not caught atleast something...

I have had some success in the hot summer flipping jigs w/pork trailer SLOWWWWWWW in thick mat hydrilla near a creek channel.As for color my favorite is and has been black/blue but others will work 1/2-3/4 oz.Bass experts claim past 10' all colors look dark  in the bass's eyes,but you gotta almost hit them in the head at times and the bite will be very soft so a sensitive heavy rod w/backbone will help-20 lb/line minimum w/good abrasive qualities.Good luck and happy fishing.

I just recently moved my trailer from Toledo.  I was near mill creek on the south end of the lake. If I were going this month, here is what I would try.

Early AM:  Fish points in 4-8 ft of water. Topwater and spinners. By 10:00am, move to 10-12ft Texas rig or wacky, slow it down. I would also try deep crank baits with a slow retrieve. The bass should be going fairly shallow in the early mornings to feed and then moving to deep water. when fishing shallow, make sure there is deep water fairly close to the shallow your fishing. If none of that worked, go near Texas island and find the beach. Anchor in about 6 ft of water, get a beer, jump in and relax. Hopefully its a full moon so you can night fish with top waters!

Many years ago when I actually bass fished, I would do the early morning (like just as the sun is peaking over the horizon) and had good success on topwaters. Many times just tossing out the lure and letting it sit there for a minute or so before twitching it. By about 9:00AM, it was time to move off of the water and wait for the evening fishing.

      Bridgeland vs Tomball

      By Separation Scientist · Posted

      Tomball takes wild 2nd game 8-6. Both teams had 3 E's. Tomball gave up a late lead but first game pitching star Sampson nailed a 3 run homer to push Tomball to victory.

      My understanding is that the falsification of records was the crime that he was convicted of… but for it to have been a felony act, it had to have occurred in the furtherance of another criminal act. The prosecution had to first prove that the criminal act of falsifying documents had occurred. IF the jury believed that records were falsified, they were given three possible criminal acts… any one of the three would allow a felony conviction. The instructions stated that for any of the 34 charges, all twelve of the jurors had to agree that records were falsified, but they also had to believe that the records were falsified in the furtherance of at least one other, different crime. Six jurors could believe that Trump was falsifying records to avoid paying taxes… the other six could believe that it was skirt around election laws. The jurors didn’t have to agree on which of the three alleged criminal acts Trump was trying to further by falsifying records, just so long as they agreed that a) the falsification occurred and that it b) occurred to help him cover up another crime (for which he wasn’t charged and never proven to have committed or to have even occurred, for that matter).     Complete pile of crap as a prosecution, in my opinion.     But, we shouldn’t cry if our nominee is the kind of man who bangs porn stars while his wife is at home with the kid, then tries to buy her silence, then breaks the law in regards to falsifying documents to hide the evidence of the coverup.    If you’re wondering why falsifying those records might be illegal, it’s this. Money paid to your attorney for services performed can be deducted from one’s taxes as a legal expense. If the money is paid to a person to settle a personal claim, then the amount would be taxable-the falsification would have been done to avoid taxation. On the other hand, if campaign funds were spent to pay hush money and the records were falsified to hide the violation of campaign laws, then the felony occurred.    The bottom line is this…. They didn’t have enough evidence to indict trump on any of those three things that allegedly happened… but they DID have evidence that the financial records were falsified, so they point at these other acts which can’t be proven to bump the charges on falsification to a felony.    And the reason Trump didn’t take the stand is that he can’t go on the record about whether or not he had sex with Daniels… I’m certain that they can prove it and hang him up on perjury too.    The most delicious irony is this… Trump gave his supporters too much credit for their integrity. He thought they’d turn on him if they found out what he’d done, when in reality they wouldn’t have given a care… Trump’s whole falsifying records and quest for secrecy wasn’t even needed… his followers don’t have moral objections to his sinful acts.
