Well it's a wrap on fishing RB this weekend...
A post I made few minutes ago in thread "Tomorrow". I made this trip before Barnett was completed......The water at Eagle was up to the road at Shell Beach..(if it is still there)......good luck.....Quote:

like my dad used to tell me......"son, you can't catch a fish less your hooks in the water"............hope you kill'em....
I will be out tomorrow with the wife also......it's that getting up at 3:30 that is a killer....
good luck

Shiners, I used to fish those tree tops too, back in the '70's. You're right on about the number and size of those bream. My job, back at the camp at night, was making the cole slaw. Wasn't old enough to make the hushpuppies or cook the fish.Quote:

The trip I was talking about was in 1959. Say, my sisters husband (RIP) had a camp at Eagle for a long time.....name was Bill Landrum.....know him?..........he retired from telephone company.....Quote:
