Colorado River Camp

Post by DNR »

Me and a friend are doing an overnighter the weekend of the 24th-25th.
Put-in at the FM973 bridge - camp on the Big Island - back to Garfield or Little Webberville Park.
About a 12 mile trip.
Mainly a fishing trip.

If anybody is interested, welcome to come along.

No, :oops: It should read "on down to Garfield".
The second day is only about 2 1/2 miles down river, so it won't be a long day Sun. But some real good fishing areas.
The shuttle is close and easy, won't be a prob.
Come on out.

Hey bclarkmsu - We'll make a plan.

Good deal, Hirschhunter, hope you can make it.
Only two of us so far, could use a few more.

I will let you know for sure tomorrow, but it is looking good. What time are you looking at launching Saturday and recovering Sunday?

If we launch around 8am or so it'll give us plenty of time for fishing. I expect the fishing to be good.
It's not too far from the island to the take out, I'd say take out around 1pm.

It'll be a fun trip.
I'll PM you my phone # later.

Hey Beve -
I think your right, this is the start of the good time of the year.
Not only bass but my favorite river fish to catch, big ol' Drums.

If you get a chance to get out there let me know.
