WOW!!! What a difference one day on Lake Conroe can make!
Today, the lake settled down and made fishing much more enjoyable than yesterday—especially for my first-time Livescope customers.
I had the pleasure of having a father, his son, who is visiting from California and his son-in-law on the boat. We started out with a catch-and-release catfish trip, and after putting up double digits, they were ready to switch things up and try some crappie fishing with Livescope.They were determined to get the hang of it and learn how to make those crappie chase a jig—and the fish cooperated!

Since
they were being released, the crappie didn’t seem to mind playing along. 😂 They ended up catching and releasing double digits there as well.
After that, it was all about relaxing, kicking back, and enjoying some quality time together on the boat. Water temp was mid 70’s. We fished 15 to 25fow. The crappie were not interested in the minnows as much as they were the chart/white and pink/black jigs.

Another good day on the water with some crappie action—first and second time LiveScope users and they were well on their way to a double limit.
Had to cut it short due to their schedule and some bad weather moving in, but they got the hang of it quickly. Fished 14–23 FOW with water temps right around 70 degrees. Pink and black jig & chartreuse and black jig from TMT Fishing and Hand Tied Jigs along with monkey milk mayfly from Bobby Garland got the job done.

Got out on Lake Conroe for a few hours today and the crappie bite was on fire 🔥
It was one of those beautiful days on the lake — light breeze, warming temps, and fish ready to eat. I put double digits back in the water to catch another day. Fished 10–18 feet with water temps sitting at 58–60 degrees.
Almost anything green was getting bit, but lemon-lime plastics really stood out. Chartreuse/black and pink/black jigs from TMT Fishing and Hand Tied Jigs were in the mix too, and I put the Fiction Shad from 6th Sense to work as

Today’s second time repeat LiveScope customer had to put in the work, but it paid off with 20 solid keepers in the box. 💪🎣
Bounced around to about a dozen spots to make it happen, with 5–6 throwbacks along the way. Fish were caught in 12–33 FOW, with the stronger bite coming in the deeper water (20–33’).
Water temps held steady around 55–57°. Those crappie were tucked tight to the brush and lying right on the bottom.
Lemon Lime plastics produced some bites, but the majority came on chartreuse & white and pink & black jigs from TMT Fishing and

Catfish are doing good and the hybrids are okay; hybrids slowed down a little bit but they should come back in a couple weeks.

    Captain Kirk is the man. If you want to catch monsters and learn anything you want to know about these dinosaurs, there’s nowhere else to look. Have been fishing with Captain Kirk twice now and has been non-stop action both times.

    We had a great time going out with Richard. The weather was not in favor of fishing. There was absolutely No wind. The lake was like glass. And the fish don’t bite when it’s like that. But that didn’t stop Richard from trying to get us on some hybrids. We finally resolved to catching catfish which we love. I highly recommend Richard. Great personality and very knowledgeable. He taught us some stuff we can use going forward. Thanks Richard for a wonderful outing.

    My husband and 14-year-old son went out lake fishing with Ray and they had such a fantastic experience! My son especially had been really looking forward to the trip and Ray definitely didn’t disappoint. He worked so hard to make sure they had the best experience and most importantly, got them catching fish! They caught some great catfish and were both really pleased with what they managed to catch. Ray was incredibly kind, patient and helpful throughout, and really made the trip enjoyable for them both. They also loved getting to use all the amazing fishing equipment Ray had available, which made the experience even more special. They came back absolutely buzzing and haven’t stopped talking about it! A brilliant experience from start to finish and a real highlight of our holiday. We would definitely recommend Ray to anyone looking for a great fishing trip. Thank you so much, Ray!

    Ray was great! Very accommodating of all our requests & went above & beyond to make sure we were satisfied & offered several times to keep us fishing until we were ready to come in. Put us on fish & made sure to teach us how to improve. Boat, equipment and electronics all first class. Highly recommend.

    Super fun trip. We booked knowing fully well that it was cold, not fishing season, etc. and still managed to catch a good amount of large catfish. Captain DJ was a great time, professional, and even let us stay out on the water a little longer than we had booked in case we were able to catch some extra fish… Thank you DJ for showing my friends and I a great time!!!
