During the dog days of sum mer, fish become slow and inac tive during most of the daylight hours. But as the sun dips below the treetops, the recreationalists head for home and the fish come out to play. Anglers willing to set aside a Saturday night could find this as the most relaxing and productive method of fishing they have ever experienced.The wind tends to die down at night and there is usually only a handfull of boats on the entire lake. Crappie and catfish top the popularity chart among noctur nal anglers while bass fishermen can have great success probing the shallows with a plastic worm. Crappie congregate around cJummer is almost here. Temperatures rise, frustations soar and fishing slows down. Most anglers accept the fact that fishing slows down during the summer months. Good fish ermen change their stratagies to suit the fishing conditions. Often times, the night will offer better fishing activity than during the daylight hours. How often have you been on Lake Sommerville, and had a 17- foot Glastron zoom by pulling two people waging hydroslide wars? Instead of cursing the blister- any type of structure found in deep water during the blistering summer months. Sunken brush piles and trees that line creek channels in the main lake often attract large schools of these panfish delecacies. A good depth finder is impari- tive for locating these areas. If you do not own such equip ment, you might want to try sinking some brush of your own in about 20 feet of water. Christmas trees arranged in a square or rectangle work well for this purpose. Once you find a crappie hole that suits to your liking, you will need to begin setting up camp for the night. A Coleman lantern hung from a tree limb will pro vide enough light to operate un der. Be sure you have enough food and beverages to last through the night, to keep your companions quiet. Some sort of high intensity light, such as a Q-beam, can be helpful in finding your way home if you decide to pack up before sunrise. Stumps that were not there at dusk have a way of materializing when trying to navigate out of a back cove on your way home. Make sure to have a couple of minnow buckets filled before leaving the boat ramp because 24 hour bait stores are hard to come by. It would be a shame to run out of shiners at 2 a.m., when the fishing really starts to pick up. This brings up another point, if the action is slow for the first hour or so, wait it out. There are/ certain times when fish activity will pick up and slow down. Give the water a chance to cool a bit after sunset. Then, hope fully, the crappie will get a 1 more active. a 02 /e HIL 0280 ai SURF Admi fEXAS A&M berst University Bookstores THREE CONVENIENT LOCATIONS NORTHGATE PLAZA VILLAGE TEXAS HAUL OF FAME Your #1 Uvt* Country Night Spot!

Fishing Report GIBBON'S CREEK- Recent rains have scattered fish. Some bass are being taken on buzz-baits according to guide Dan Clark. But for the most part, action has been slow, causing most people to drive the extra miles to Fayette County. SOMERVILLE- Dan Clark also reports good white bass schooling on the lower end of the lake. Rat-L-Traps worked near the surface are the most productive around the dam and over flats. Diving birds and fisn breaking the surface will reveal the schools' location. LAKE CONROE- An 8 lb., 9 oz. bass took the money in the KILT tournament over the weekend. Lynn Phillips reports most fish are hitting Carolina-rigged, pumpkin-seed worms. Crappie are improving up Caney Creek and around boat stalls. Large yellow cats to 20 lbs. are coming from the Shiloh Shore Marina pier. Water is in good shape. FAYETTE COUNTY- Paul Place caught mainly slot fish Tuesday on Slug-O's and ringworms in 5 to 8 feet of water over grass beds. Dan Clark used Big Claw craw worms trying to catch big fish and was rewarded with five over the 21 inch slot limit. By Kevin McDaniel Major League Wrapup NL Standings East Division Team W L Pet.
