Ever dream of a 30-pound limit of bucketmouths? Yeah, we all have _ and then we woke up. But what if there was a real lake where the possibility of a 30-plus-pound limit of fish wasn't just a dream, but a distinct possibility. We know, you're thinking there isn't such a place, and even if there was, only guides and pros can catch them like that.
Well, what if we told you it's not a dream, and it's not just a lake where the guides and the pros can do it. It's western Texas' Lake Amistad. And the best thing about Amistad is the pigs are at the trough all year long.
Texans have known all along how good this fish factory is, but the rest of the world had little clue until the Stren Series and Bassmaster Elite Series ventured there in the spring of 2006. Now the lake is getting its share of acclaim around the U.S., but many anglers think "it's only a spring bite".
How wrong they are. Here are some examples from veteran Amistad guides Travis Darley and Ray Hanselman. (http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/catpage-HOTZONETEX.html)
