HoCo gone Country




HoCo goes Country
Published on September 20, 2016


It has been really fun to see this new group of kids in High School want a "different" experience in lieu of the traditional homecoming festivities. We have hosted over 20 school groups in the last 24 months here at Mustang Ranch. They all have expressed a strong desire to escape the fast paced city, pressures of renting Limos, buying Mums that are as tall as their dates, expensive dinners no one is comfortable at and with. These kids are enjoying fishing, kayaking and playing horseshoes / washers here with their dates and friends. And in the evening cooking out on grills, then smores over a nice fire and cat fishing late into the night. The best part is they are not on any "schedule". They have no stress and do not have to be anywhere at anytime. We call that "country time" here at the ranch. Where kids can really be kids as we were and disconnect from the big city. The best part is they are experiencing a different side of "living" that most city folks have forgotten. These kids might very well be the generation that makes it "cool" again to be in the great outdoors.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 7)

GOOD. Water Stained; 73 degrees; 0.73 feet below pool. Good early morning bass bite around shad spawn areas and with topwater frogs over grass. Midday to mid afternoon work flukes and yum dingers around grass good1-3 feet. New wave of spawners pulling up this week. Carolina rigs fair in 5-10 feet of water on secondary points. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Black bass are post spawn and the top water bite is on! Frog patterns are working in the shallow vegetation. The crappie are moving shallow, small clousers are producing well. Large bream have moved shallow, wooly buggers are producing good fish. Channel catfish are cruising 2-4 feet biting clousers. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. Crappie fishing is settling into the post spawn and summer patterns we should see for the next few months. We are seeing incredible numbers of small black crappie right now loading up on brush piles, lay downs, bridges and docks. The larger black crappie are a little hard to find but you can find some nice groups of them or pick a few out of the smaller fish. The bigger white crappie are beginning to load on the summer pattern trees. We have a tremendous amount of fry covering up a lot of those trees and making it very hard to see those bigger white crappie on forward facing sonar or for them to see your bait. You can find fish in 10-30 feet of water and some may only be 2 feet under the surface or right on the bottom. Minnows and any colored jigs are both producing extremely well. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
