Fishing Report:
The past week has been a blast catching a lot of fish from topwater to sight fishing. In several areas the hydrilla is in great shape and its holding lots of the fun size. In a few areas it’s crystal clear. If it’s dead calm you can see fish crusing. Pitching a small worm a few feet in front will catch 'em. I’ve found a few areas with suspended whites but they haven’t been easy to catch like usual.

On a recent repeat 3 day trip with Mike from Illinois we caught fish non stop sun up to sun down. The scattered storms had us running but each day was a success. The bite was from topwater to 20ft. Spooks and PopRs were a blast as were the several on Tx rigged plastics. The hydrilla is growing and in great shape. Topwater will continue to be a blast all Summer and Fall.

Took my son out for his birthday on a guided fishing trip at O.H. Ivie Reservoir, and we had an awesome time. Stan was great from start to finish. He was knowledgeable, easy to be around, and made the whole trip fun. We caught several bass and made some great memories. My son loves to fish, and this was the perfect birthday trip. Can’t wait to go out again soon. Highly recommend Stan!
Stan is a great guy and worked hard to put us on fish. They just didn't want to cooperate today. I did have one really good fish on but it came undone and we caught some nice whites and I learned a little about live scope sonar. I would definitely recommend Stan and would go again if I have the chance.
We had a great experience booking through Captain Experiences for a day on Lake O. H. Ivie with our guide, Stan. Even though the fish weren't biting much today, Stan worked incredibly hard to put us on them and kept us moving to different spots across the lake to give us the best chance possible. His effort and positive attitude made the day enjoyable for both me and my son regardless of the catch count. It’s clear Stan knows these waters well and truly cares about his guests having a good time.
Will definitely be going back.
