JULY 6TH FISHING REPORT

Bob reports that overall fishing at the barge continues to be solid. The fisherman from Garland who comes down once a week tore them up again with a nice stringer of 9 crappies this morning. Bob also reports the catfish and and Bream are also steady.

PRESSURE IS A GOOD THING

The key to LakeStore Marina's delicious fried catfish lays is the fryer. It's a Henny Penny pressurized steam fryer, the same one that Brookshires uses to fry their chicken. The Hennys cost a pretty penny but the end result is worth it. The advantages of pressure frying are clear: controlled low pressure allows faster cooking at lower temperatures. This not only saves energy, but helps seal in the food’s moisture and natural juices for a healthier, better-tasting product.

CRAPPIE ARE HITTING AGAIN

Bob reports that the Crappie are back and hitting strong at the Barge. They have been very consistent over the last two days hitting both jigs and minnows. Bass and Catfish have been solid as well. The rain may slow the bite down a bit, but they usually turn back on after the rain subsides.
