The SRA will start clearing the North South Boat Lane from Cypress Point North to San Patricio then to South to Pleasure Point. Let's hope this works.

Anyone know of a paved launch near housen? As I understand it, white oak has gravel and I just don't think my 1/2 ton 82 gmc has enough weight on the back tires to pull a 20 ft. triton out of the water there.

The launch at White Oak isnt bad. I have a 97 Dodge 1500 2wd that has no problems pulling out my 20 ft. Nitro there.

I may give it a try this coming weekend. I don't think I have another choice if I wanna fish that area. I'll have a chain with me.......just in case. ;)

I launched there last week and my tires were on the concrete no problem pulling boat out. Caught fish along the grass edges texas rigs.

Saw an article in the paper today.

SRA bought a stump cutting barge and is going to dredge all of thier launches. Should start next month.

Thanks Jim and Bullet. I did find it yesterday. Long drive from leesville but, that is the area I wanted to fish. I unlatched the back of the boat and backed in the water to see how much of a drop off it was. Tires on the trailer went off of the rocks down into the mud. I barely made it out spinning the tires cause I dont have any weight in the back end of my truck so I did not feel comfortable launching there.

I went over to the indian mounds to find it blocked off with equipment. They had it dug out and the water dammed off. Don't know if they are gonna pour concrete there or what. Maybe it will be ready by this weekend?

I drive a clean Black 82 GMC 1/2 ton with a triton white/blue TR-20.

Hey guys its good to be back!! my computer crapped out shortly after moving to the lake. I also wanted everyone to know that at Paradise Point, the marina I live at, has put in a new deep water launch!!! and this is no gravel or bags of concrete launch it is a completely new ramp. You can launch probably down to 145 God forbid it gets that low though. Here is a link of Stephen Johnston being the first to christen the new ramp at the ribbon cutting. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=220062191397210&set=o.131971273533984&type=3&theater. Paradise Point is a full service marina with restaurant, motel, and cabins. The fishing is unbelievable right now!

Has anyone heard from Catt lately? I tried to call his cell, only to find out it's no longer a working number.

Posted

Catt has been gone for a while around here. It sure is quiet without him. Hope all is well.

T-Bend is one of my favorite lakes, the wife and I try to get down there a couple of times a year at least. Second favorite is Rayburn. We haven't been to either in a year and a half; last time out at Rayburn we barely got launched and that was when it was several feet higher than it is now. This dang drought is a bummer!

I wish you East Texas guys the best, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. We've had some rain the last few weeks in the North Texas area, hope some of it makes it down your way.

Made a trip up last weekend. 11 sacalait Friday afternoon and a limit Saturday morning.

Newell's ramp is open.

Has anyone heard about the pros vs joes tournament out of fin and feather next October? I was just wondering if anyone planned to fish it

I got worried about Catt and tried to call his cell. Got the message that the number was no longer in service. That worried me even more, so I called his wife at work. Catt is fine. His computer crashed and he has yet to get around to replacing it. If he HAS replaced it, it would appear that he is no longer interested in participating in these forums. He will be greatly missed.

Launched my pontoon boat at Newells last week. Caught 36 nice Crappie shiners and jigs.

Looks like the lake is up a foot in the last 2 weeks, anybody been to the public ramp by the dam,,tx side?

that ramp never closed, i was using it when the lake was at 159.5...

Guys,

I was fishing the Chicken Coup Saturday caught 50 nice Crappie.

Had to help pull Two fisherman out of the lake. A grandfather and his 13 year old grandson were fishing the boy fell in the grandfather fell in trying to help the kid. Three boats got to them quick.

They had no boating ladder on the bass boat . If others boats had not been near they would have drowned.

The kid could barely move and he had been in the water maybe 10 minutes.

A ladder on your bass boat could save your life.
