Lake Conroe Bass Fishing
Lake Conroe Bass Fishing
Where's a good spot on Lake Conroe for bass fishing this time of year with a fly rod? I'm going to be on a kayak for the first time this Saturday and wanted to try it out close to home. Anyone feel like showing a newby the ropes? It doesn't have to be Lake Conroe, I bring beer.

ShotMagnet - That would be great if you can make it. Let me know when you find out (send me a PM or something). Do you know Lake Conroe very well? I really don't but I read a post that the area north of 1375 is good for kayaks (not so many power boats).
Yanker - I would imagine that it takes about as much as it does to float me, which is alot. Are you in?

SLcooper, it has been a while, but there is a state park of some sorts northwest of the 1097 bridge. If you put in there there is a boat lane heading towards the main lake and a lot of exposed timber directly across from the launch/park area. The shore line on the other side of that cove isn't too far away.
That is where I landed my largest bass to date- 26" and FAT.
I couldn't find my scale in time to weigh her so a measurement was all I got before releasing her back where she belonged.
This area doesn't get too many pleasure boaters due to the stumps sticking up out of the water.
Just a thought.

Dave - Thanks for the tip, I'll probably try that area next time.
Yanker - I was asking if you would be out there. I fish Conroe when I get a chance, I live in Conroe so it's close. I've never been out on a boat before Saturday.
I put in at the Marina on FM 830 and fished in that area (including the 1097 bridge) for most of the day. I only caught one small bass but still had fun. I didn't see any other kayaks. What happened to the group that was supposed to be out there? Maybe they cancelled because of the weather. I didn't feel one drop of rain from 2-7 PM.
