*****BOB HALL PIER - BTB, June 29th, SATURDAY, 2024*****

Hello to all my fellow kayaking friends. Just like last summer, 2023, I wanted to do something for this summer 2024 in regards to BTB kayak fishing for new people (of course intermediate and advanced kayakers are welcomed as well). Several years ago, I put together a BTB trip for anyone that wanted ...

Yarborough Pass Nov. 4th

About eight of us went to fish this area last weekend, some camped all weekend. The fishing was absolutely AMAZING!! Stud trout were caught. Anything from 21.5" to 26.5" trout were caught amongst eight of us. There were small keepers caught as well, 15" to 20", but the bite was n...

August 2023 Los Buzos, Panama (Central America) All Texas Group

My story starts on Saturday, August 5, 2023. My wife and our older son take me to the airport. We leave around 6:00 am. My flight doesn’t take off until 10:02 am and I live in Katy but I was taking into consideration any construction that maybe on the road as well as any possible accidents. Also, th...

Beach access 2 … beach marker 81 81..... I've never heard of anyone meeting at 81. Everyone has always met at 80. They are right next to each other so I guess it's no biggie. As long as you guys don't interfere with the people at the resort while going out or coming in, you should be good to go. I ...

Which one of these gaffs would be more suitable? IMG_3546.jpg I'm not going to buy a third. The longer one is designed for Barracuda and has barbs. The shorter one has a cover over the tip so I'd be less likely to stab myself. I used this for large Lingcod in Oregon. They both will obviously work. ...

I had a friend that is a very seasoned kayaker go out yesterday to the MP rigs. He only went to the first rig. At first when he first arrived at the beach he called to give me the rundown of the surf. He said it looked nothing more than 2 ft and the swells from shore looked nice. Once he made it bac...

Re: Jet ski trailer modification

I recommend unistrut in place of the wood. I have this on my trailer and I have had it since my trailer was brand new back in 2017 until now. I added it immediately when I bought the trailer. The unistrut has oxidized some but it's still in great shape. Call at your convenience if you have questions...

I guess the point I am trying to make is that I don't want people to start thinking that it's okay to go out in not so great conditions. Can people make it out in a kayak or better yet a Island, sure. Is it a good decision to do so, not so much. Some will make it through the surf and even out in the...

Gentlemen, as of now the surf is 3 - 4 ft with swells averaging at 4.4 ft every 6 secs. Also, winds are averaging at 18 mph with gusts as high as 26 mph. Anyone in a kayak will not have an enjoyable time (assuming you make it through the surf). Islands can make this but once again, not fun. I've be...
