One of the folks on Texas Fly Report pointed us to a small lake here in North Texas. Man oh man, she's a beauty! Lined with cattails, filled with lily pads and elodea. The topwater action is fantastic. But those of you who fish in Texas (and I suspect that it might be the case elsewhere as well) know that once the sun pops up the topwater shuts down...hard. Time to go home or practice casting til you're bored with it.

Sub surface is the way to go after that. I know that one can use a sink tip or sink line to fish deep but I am worried about all the vegetation; this place is loaded with it!

Have any of you good folk any tips on hassle-free, or relatively hassle-free techniques for sub surface fishing in heavy weeds?

Any for the record, anyone in North Texas who wants to know where this place is, email me and I'll gladly give the location. Just don't want any random lurking litters to find it and waste it.
