Re: Be Careful In POC... PICS

Re: Be Careful In POC... PICS
I will say that one has to have some pretty damning video for TPWD to get interested in actually filing charges. That said - I feel its worth a phone call to report, especially if you can get the TX number, because if this guy is doing this habitually, or if another fly by goes bad, your report will...

50 - 60 mph in a yak, Redfish Bay, during a strong norther , In June some 15 years ago ! I wasn't in the kayak for very long.

Re: Shallow reds video (review and a question)
One needs to put in a lot of time on the water to become confident about your ability to find, see and sight cast fish. The biggest mistakes I see anglers making are : -- Going too fast. You have to go slow and look carefully, as with stealth hunting any game. Look for small signs and focus your att...

Re: Lower Laguna Madre
I have not done that trip myself - but I know 2 guys who have each paddled the length of Padre and Mustang Islands. For both, it turned into an ordeal. The flats on the east side of LLM are quite skinny and tide sensitive - you can get into a lot of water where you have to move a long ways west to h...
