Toledo Bend Chicken Coop
We tried launching at Newell's, which is just around the corner from the Coop. When we arrived just before sunrise, we were greeted with the longest line of trucks and boats I have ever seen! I pulled out my phone and mapped how far we were from the launch....1.5 miles!! We left and drove all the way back to the camp and launched there and idled across the lake in the fog. People we talked to while fishing said it took them 2 hours or more in line to launch! The action wasn't crazy fast, but it was steady enough to keep us interested the whole time. We managed a limit by 11 each day. The quality was mixed, with some small ones along with some true slab perch. On the last day, we had some real excitement. We were finishing out our limit when we heard a loud 'SPLOOSH!', an angler about 50 yards away had fallen into the water! We immediately started to untie to assist, as his fishing partner bumped his boat on stump after stump in a frantic effort to reach his fallen partner, who was by now clinging to a large standing piece of timber. As I am untying, I hear another loud 'SPLOOSH!'. I turned to see that the other angler had fallen into the frigid water trying to retrieve his friend! By this time there were several boats who were fishing closer, that had already untied and made their way over to assist. Both men were pulled to safety, given towels and helped to dry off. A couple of guys on the pontoon boats actually gave the cold, wet anglers the shirts off their backs! One of the guys in the pontoon boat is a client of mine and I just wanted to say Kudos to him for his lightning fast reactions and his selfless actions when giving aid to anglers desperately in need! |

As far as depth, we fished anywhere from 23 to 30 feet 24-25' seem to be most productive. Sent from my iPhone 4s using Tapatalk |

A big beach towel can be a life saver in that situation |
