honestly this is what i carry right now, add topwaters when it warms up.

I appreciate that. I used to wade some back before Rita, in 03 - 05, but not alot 5 or 6 times each year. We caught fish then, on Corky Devils, Catch 2000 and topwaters.

More times than not now I am not looking for meat and would love to get more into wade fishing. I have a Boga, wade belt, net and other stuff. Going to get another pair of waders.

One big question I have is did the storms, Rita and Ike, change the lake bottom a lot? In othere words, would the places I used to wade still have decent bottoms or may be soft as sh** now?

Hope to have my new boat soon and would love to take anyone wading that is interested. As a matter of fact, I have access to a boat now even if I don't have the new boat soon. Have a 4 day weekend coming up and plan on being on the water somewhere.

Also, do you have to see bait in an area or just know the area will hold fish before bailing out?

Thanks to all of you for your help and input.
