Problem solved: hammock in boat
It is a $450 fine if you are caught camping anywhere near the shore of 110,000 acre Sam Rayburn Reservoir. That means 750 miles of shoreline, most of it national forest that I use to primitive camp is now off limits to us to use overnight. The Corp of Engineers will gladly allow you to use one of their campsites for about $20 a night though.
I am not a rich man, and $20 a night is money that I formerly did not have to spend to camp on Big Sam.
It is still not illegal to night fish on Rayburn, and I can find no prohibition against nodding off while waiting for a tug on the end of your line at night.
So…BOOYAH!!! Corp Dudes:

Reverse when the bite slows and take a nap. Anchor up with spread front and rear anchors over a brush pile all night if necessary. No need to run miles across the lake in the morning.
