That was 2 trips to 2 different lakes. The hogs were in 20-25 FOW. The smaller ones varied, we caught them drifting humps and points. All on cut or whole shad.

A few Texas Blue Cats
Last 2 weeks have been good in Texas. The Blues are starting to feed heavy. The big boys went back in the water to catch again, the ones on the table are ready for fish fry.

So far I have had very good luck using UV treated materials for my jigs. I try to put at least a little something UV on each one even if its just a few strands of UV flash in the tail.
