Anyone been out yet? The weather is warming up and it should start getting good soon. We should make plans to meet somewhere.

Comment by Magnolia Rick on January 15, 2010 at 8:48am: Neil
I really don't know much about the southside of Houston. I live 40 miles north in Magnolia. I do know that the Woodlands lake are open to fishing

Comment by Charles Singleton on January 4, 2010 at 11:00am: I'd say to wait 'til the temp gets up above 60F. 'Gills, IIRC, don't hit the beds until it's 63F or so, and I think that would give the little ones the best chance of survival.

Ditto, but they shut up after going with or eating the results.

My stomach usually doesn't give the scales enough time to join in on the action though.

Jared Thrasher commented on Jared Thrasher's photo '8 redear 3 gills'

They are a very different fish I'll say that. The best I have figured so far is that they like the bottom and live bait, not to say that they wont strike an artificial, it takes some real skill though from what I can gather and I really admire those…

Zach Pierce commented on Zach Pierce's photo '2 small hybrid bluegill'

I was kind of worried about that, but I have seen some variations of Hybrids look this way, or at least that is what was posted on the internet. We always called these black pearch. To be honest I do not think the Green Sunfish have the yellow bel…

I am still trying to figure out how to fish for Redear. I have not had much luck with them. The seem to be pretty smart. Do you have tricks you would like to share on catching these guys? Did you happen to get the weight of any of these fish?

John C Watson replied to John C Watson's discussion 'texas blue cichlid'

They fight just like a big bluegill. I am told you can eat them but haven't tried yet. The ones we caught today went to a friend who has a pet shop. I wouldn't mind trying them though. They are local to south Texas and I would imagine that they eat…

Jared Thrasher commented on Jared Thrasher's photo '8 redear 3 gills'

Bank access has improved since they began stocking trout back in the late 90's. As of now State regs require a trout license to fish it during the season ($10). If you plan to launch a boat you will need a permit. Not sure about other options as far…

About the only time you can fish Pawhuska from the bank is when they drop the lake for trout season. There is no cost to fish it.

Zach Pierce commented on Jared Thrasher's photo '8 redear 3 gills'

I know, I will have to try it out this fall when the temps drop a bit. Can you fish it from the bank at all, and is there a cost to fish it?

I have yet to fish lake Pawhuska, is it a nice lake? Did they stock everything in it?

So how do they fight and can you eat them?
