Our season opener on caddo is less than a month away. Just a reminder it will be $40 a team for the first tourny which includes $10 membership. Every other tourny will be 30 which includes $5 big bass pot. We will post the take off time from the Earl G launch when it gets a little closer. Thanks again John
We will allow trailering, but you can only leave at launch time
I'm ready to go, just need a little pre-fishing time! I am sure John will have the Lake broken down by then.
If it goes as planned I will be out there Tuesday and Thursday and shooting for Monday the week before. But it's all liable to change by Saturday. Gonna have to bring my A game to beat Wayne since he has home field advantage!!!
This may seem like a crazy question but what slot will we be going by the Texas or Louisiana.....I do not fish Caddo but i thought the Texas and La sides have different slot limits.
Going with the Texas slot limit 14-18
Right, whatever is most inclusive... 14-18. Better safe than sorry in covering all our bases. Don't want anyone to get a ticket.
Ever since that $265 ticket i got for that 17 1/2'' fish I caught, I like to play it safe now... LOL... Even though you Launch from La..... You still have to obide by the Tx laws if you are in Tx. (words from game warder).... Lesson Learned.
Is there anything special I need to do to start fishing in this tourny, or Do Me and my partner just show up, pay the fee, and fish?
Just let us know on here and show up. We would be glade to have y'all join us. At the top of this board if a schedule and the few rules we have. 25 dollar entry 5 dollar big bass and 10 dollar yearly membership. We will post the time for take off when it gets a little closer and that's it. Hope to see u there. Thanks John
Thanks John! I def will be there with my partner! Good luck to you all!
I coming and I will have a high school angler with me pre-fishing for the SAF State Championship....I hope you guys will share all your secrets at the weigh-in. ~roflmao

Went to Caddo yesterday...water temps 43 degrees. I fished in Jeems for about 3 hours without a bite...talked to another guy with the same results. :surrender:
And I bet the water was real muddy too. Always makes for tuff fishing.

water was still clear
I'll be out there Saturday. Stop by the blue ProCraft for a cup of coffee!!
Ill be out there for sure to see if I can find some hungry fish! May need that cup of coffee, and a few more hot hands as well!!!!!!
I should be able to get away and come help that afternoon. Can't wait to see some heavy sacks.
A group of us are meeting at the What-a-burger on North Market at 6:30. In getting ready to put my boat in the water for the first time in a few months, I ran down a list of issues: Checked tire pressure (filled to 50lbs as recommended by Goodyear for Marathon tires), restrung my reels, checked all of my storage boxes, got the batteries on charge, checked all of the switches, pumps, etc, checked the trolling motor, made sure I have enough life jackets for the number of people, and made sure I have all of my electronics. I recommend that anyone going during this cold water pack an extra set of clothes just in case. I also have a small propane heater, again just in case someone decides to go swimming.
Anyone else heading to caddo in the morning is more than welcome to meet us at whataburger
Can't wait to get on the water! If you can't meet at Whataburger, we are launching from Shady Acres. Look for 2-3 big dudes in a blue procraft, and come say hi
Hey Lawguy we will be out there tomorrow also just not real early. If you see a SX170 with LSU on it stop and say hi. I may steal a cup of that coffee from you also.
Give us a call when u get out there (318)489-8724
Hope you had better luck than I did......I think I will be donating next weekend.
THe way i see it, after today i can only do the same or get better next Saturday....Team R.D.P (Raise Da Pot) will be donating again .... lo I WILL WEIGH ALL KEEPERS THIS TIME THOUGH!!!!!!!!!!! ~b~
I wish I coulda met you guys at wataburger....but I look forward to hangin wit ya next week at the tournament. My partner will be a friend of mine who helped me change out my fuel filter and fuel lines (clogged) and we took out everything in the back of my boat including my 35 gallon fuel tank. It was way more work than we expected, but i did get to completely clean the bottom of my boat that I haven't seen in over 6 years.
We ran it today and it worked fine. He deserves a tournament trip on me. ~c~
I ended up catching one over and one slot. It was tough only had two bites for two fish. Lawguy caught a under ad talked to only one other guy who caught two. With the warming weather this week the fish should turn on for Saturday looking forward to seeing everyone there.
Wish I would of seen this post earlier, I would of def went to Whataburger! Instead I got some sandwiches at Elsies! Anyways, I hope that Yall had better luck than we did! Tried every bait, every color, in every depth and didnt get a bite the whole day!!!! So I went night fishing for catfish on Red River and Didnt catch much either! Depressing!!! You guys have any luck?
I caught 2 and lawguy 1 that was it for the group.
