This fish was 10.2 pounds! It didn't even
have a belly! Come spring time it would have been 12 pounds
or better! This was one of 15 fish I caught in this spot. This
spot had a 5' top, dropping to 13' and the fish were stacked in the
13' hole. The Lowrance sonar light up like a Christmas tree! I followed
the 13' drop and it lead out into the main channel. It was a dream
spot if there ever was one. I could call the shot with every cast, nothing
under 8 pounds came out! All these fish were caught on 20# Berkley Sensation
line, 3/16 sinker - pegged, 4/0 Owner Hook and an 8" Dezyner Bait Snake,
color S23A, one of my special colors.

This is the boat I guided and fished during my visit.
I have personally blessed this boat with the name "Lucky Red".
It only catches BIG fish! This is the boat to ask for when you visit
El Salto!

The stump in this picture is sitting right on the
5' to 13' drop. This was the spot of a lot of action. The lake
has risen 6 feet since my visit. As the weather starts to cool down the water
temperature will drop as well (the water temperature during my visit was 80 degrees!). Fishing will become REALLY good during
the November and December time frame. The baits that will be very
effective will be the reaction baits such as large jerk baits, deep diving
crank plugs, topwater baits like the Splash-It II in the Bluegill color,
Woodchoppers, spinnerbaits such as Nickols Pulsator Tandem Willowleafs,
Chearteuse blades with White-chartreuse skirts, and 8" or better worms
in reds. Gary Yamamoto's 7" Senko in smoked sparkle will also work well.

This is my friend Tim Galloway. Tim was the one who
took these pictures with his digital camera and made this display
possible. I would like to personally thank Tim for all his contributions
and wonderfull help. Tim is going to be one of the guides at El Salto.
He is an excellent fisherman, and dedicated hard worker. He is someone
that you would definitely want to spend a day in the boat with. In
addition to Tim there are two other American guides that will be working
for the service. Pat Donoho, a great fisherman and great guide, and
Bob Porter, a great fisherman and guide, and the number one man for the
service. He will see to it that your stay will be enjoyable, all your
needs be satisified, and will do everything he can to ensure you catch
big fish. These guys and the many local Mexican guides are what makes trips
to El Salto memorable and worthwhile.

Here is the hotel you will stay at during your El
Salto visit. It is a clean and comfortable hotel. The resturant is clean
and the food is excellent and the service is great. You will not go
hungry during your stay. The gentleman I have my arm around is JR and
he is the owner of the resturant and hotel. He is a very nice and congenial
individual and will do everything in his power to make your stay comfortable
and memorable.
