wild caught texas

[coryjac0b]

yes they are about 8" and 10". I have two pair that were caught off a spawning bed. this is the first time i have fished for them but before the big freeze kill off a couple years ago, i heard you could catch them non stop. These are some of the prettiest i've seen. Lots of blue. Coryjacob, I guess you are talking about the pond at the west end loop by the boat houses?

Yep.

what kind of bait/lure do you use to catch them?

i have been catching them on an earthworm under a cork. water is shallow and they are on beds so i just walk the bank until i see one.
