Also part of a Scout trip, Bret and Luke did manage a single salmon (pink salmon) while kayaking through Blackstone Bay in Prince William Sound, Alaska.
Great trip, wished I’d had more time for fishing.
Brazos River on Kayaks
Bret and Donny back up the Brazos a few days after the last trip. zero striped bass this trip, and only days difference. luckily the white bass found this time were all good sized.
weird.
Roughnecks on the trip home seemed like a good idea again.
Brazos River on Kayaks
Bret and Zach on the Brazos. Several good striped bass, and countless tiny white bass.
Cold start to the day, warmed up well as the day went on.
Stopped at Roughnecks Pub in Rio Vista Texas on the way home.
Texoma On Kayaks
Only a single Striped Bass to show for our efforts, but a nice day, regardless.
It was opening day for the Texas Rangers, and we’ve made it a habit to have the day off. So, going fishing seems like a logical move.
We threw some lures around in the Red River for a bit on the way to go watch the game, and have a beer.
Nolan River on Kayaks
A surprisingly brisk morning greeted me as I hopped in the truck (hot coffee in hand) to pick up Donny. Luckily, he found a good place to leave his 4runner so I could meet him on the way.
Neither of us has launched here before, and this was one of the darkest roads I’ve been on in a long time.
Fish were caught, Several White Bass, 2 White Crappie, and a Lone Largemouth Bass.
All fish caught on Gay Blades (Cotton Cordell) and Roadrunners (Blakemore)
This is a beautiful part of Texas, with high cliffs, clear water, and really nice views.
Beers and food at Lone Star Cafe in Hillsboro, after.
Skunked on Mountain Creek (Mansfield, Texas)
Great morning on a local creek chasing white bass. Zero fish, but great paddle.
