Sometimes I wonder why I keep coming back to this lake? 8-15 years ago it was something to behold for bass anglers....before DFW decided to "treat" the lily pads for absolutely no reason whatsoever! N...

Decided to swing by Clear on my way home from Grandy and see if it was actually CLEAR?! To my astonishment it was!! Couldn't launch fast enough! Pads are just coming in and that usually means cruising...

Took a run to Clear today but was greeted by the dreaded green algae! This stuff was thick too! Temps were right at 55* so it makes sense unfortunately. I tried fishing on top with frogs, Rapalas and ...

Small sample size for this report as my batteries finally gave up the ghost about 90 minutes in, however, in that 90 minutes I boated 8 bass the biggest going about 3lbs or a little over? Didn't weigh...

Launched around 6am behind one other boat. I was very optimistic with the clouds and rainy yet calm conditions and the current moon phase. I launched on the gravel side and topwater fished my way out ...

Unexpectedly had the day off so I ran up to Clear. Was raining when I launched and I started the day throwing a swimming frog. After 30 minutes of not so much as spooking a bass I switched to a 3/8th ...

Started at about 5 PM on the West side of the lake and headed around the South end. Tossed a bit of everything, concentrating mostly in the pads and shoreline. NADA--not even one hit. Quit at near dar...

Left the house on a chilly 32* morning. Made it up to Clear and was happy to see no sign of the algae that's gripping Big Lake right now. Wasn't happy to see the whitecaps, especially given the chilly...

Figured I'd get out before this heat wave hits. I decided I'd try things I don't normally to to try and become more versatile. I focused on fishing deep for most of the time, it was different but I'd ...

In fairness I only had about 3-4 hours this morning. I went hoping the lake would be poppin' as I didn't have time to really get into dissecting the bite. I caught the first fish about an hour in an...
