Welcome to the Board! IMHO, this is the best site of it's kind on the Net.
To answer your question, it's pretty active, although not as active as the Saltwater Board.
We fish the river down below Whitney out of the canoes and kayaks quite a bit. In fact, it's my favorite section of the Brazos. I'll give you a holler next time we head down.

I live in NE Tarrant county. I have a canoe but want to sell it and get something else. Not sure what yet. I visit this site quite a bit but don't post much. This new format is great, so I will probably post more. Tight lines.

Howdy Boar... I'm in Gatesville, but I do up to Whitney and Aquilla sometimes. Aquilla is a nice kayak lake....but so is Whitney sometimes. Have fun.

I rode my motorcycle all over that Lake before it was finished
My family spent a lot of time together exploring the Proposed Lake area

Sure have caught a lot of fish out of there

Great Lake to fish, if the Jet skiers would stay away from it

We have watched boats run aground on the humps in the lake coming out of Dairy Hill

We like to use Culp when we go
I like to get over by the Island

Have you lived there long??

My husband's largest "boated" bass is 7.9 out of there
I lost one of his while I was trying to net it (I think he has finally forgiving me)
Anyway I figure the one I lost was around 10

My biggest is only 5.2 out of there

I sure have caught some nice sandies & crappie

Don't catch them all

Howdy Boar,
sorry I am so late in posting to you.
I like the area below Whitney Dam also. I have not had the chance to fish Aquila. I do all my fishing from a kayak with a Fly Rod. well if I have the kids with me I might take my canoe. Still fly fish.
