Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Probally gonna campout at my usual spot at Coon Creek down past Whitney Dam. Will be targeting some blues and anything else I can get to bite a hook.It looks like its gonna be pretty cold but dry. Open invite if anyone wants to come along. Will be leaving out early Sat and returning Sun early afternoon.

That sounds like a good trip and I might join you normally. However, I have obligations to do an early Christmas with grandkids before I fly out on Christmas vacation next week. Please ask again and I will try to make it.
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Its a trip I do often. Short paddle down river and back up the next day with lots of good fishing!

Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Are they letting water out? I know nothing about this area, but looking a google maps seems like you would be pulling the yak a bunch. Send me some details on the trip, sounds fun.
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
They have been releasing daily but it is getting less and less. Not to much dragging. Infact the past several times I have been down there(every weekend trip for me) it seemed they were keeping the level a little higher. Always great fishing and the burn ban is now lifted!
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Sounds like fun!! But, I don't have a tent, waders, cold weather gear for the water, or enough experience. I'm working on it. If I could wear shorts and fish with mullet or live shrimp I would be OK Let me know when you go on a shorter (warmer) trip
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Sounds like you need to make a trip to Academy,put on your big boy panties, and come on!
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Its the wallet that's the problem.......
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
The fishing turned out ok. Ended up with 3 nice channels,2 blues,lots of bass, and a big longnose gar. The weather was really decent all day. Very little wind and warmer then I thought it would be. Did however manage to find a leak or two in my waders. Also so nice to finally be able to brew up a pot of coffee on a nice warm campfire again.
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Sounds like a profitable trip and that is a fine looking campsite!!!
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
I do think i will be enjoying those profits later today.

Looks very nice. If I can ever get my funds in order I would love to go. (Maybe santa will hook me up)
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Was that in the kayak or canoe?
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Kayak. I can haul much more then that in my canoe!
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
I was wondering if its a drive to camp or did you transport everything by yak. I agree it was a very nice camp.
Re: Camping on the Brazos Sat 12-10
Its a short paddle down river to camp Troutless.
