That guy behind you leaning against the boat looks like a younger RC. He lives not far from me and he has showed me a few things on Cypress Springs that is for sure.

And you said getting lucky. satire, I used to hold my own in tourney fishing. You said since the grass was gone, the grass was eradicated completely by 2012. That was one of the better days as far as numbers of keepers. We caught so many 2-3 pounders we could not keep count. Killed them up on the west end in the pad fields on a hollow belly swimbait and frog. Then we hit brush piles and tire reefs. Are there even pads on the upper end of the lake anymore?

I will say yes it has good fish in it. I have caught up to 23lb tourney sacks out of it. Springtime is a fun time to fish it and not too hard to find some fish to bite.
Dougy J, I live 3 miles from cypress springs and have fished it for 30 years. If you can come over and catch 23 lbs I'll buy you lunch, beer and gas money. PM me. That lake was ruined from bass fishing years ago. Here ya go, it was Ray Hubbard Bass Club Oct 2012 sorry only pic I could find I remember Tommy Climer used to be quite a stick out that way back in the day. Fished and played flag football with Vince Burt way back in the day. A little blast from The past on that list for me.

The first individual T I ever fished was on Cypress and it took well over 20 to win. That was over two decades ago though. The cove the guy won it from was full of timber which has since been cleared and they built houses in there.
The main issue with Cypress is once it warms up the pleasure boats and jet skis keep that lake stirred up. The retaining wall around the lake just sends the wakes right back out so you got some pretty nasty and sometimes big non directional chop everywhere. Makes bass boat riding not much fun and it is hard to fish main lake stuff with that going on.

Eugene That is Rick. He is my stepdad. He taught me a LOT about jig fishing.
