Okay guys--who fishes Texas side--I am going to buy me some out of state licenses and try it out. Have not fished there in many years. I hear you can fish in the channel off Rocky Point. I have fished 991 bridge or the old trash pile road as it was once called, not to far from Kelly Landing.
Any hints from you guys.:)
You might have to start posting on the Texas forum.
I can do that also until I get my answers---Actually it does not matter--Crappie fisherman are suppose to be buddies everywhere
Go to lake o the pines in jefferson texas within the next two months you should limit out easy
Caddo, Lake of the pines, Toledo Bend are all good this time of the year. Catch the weather right and you should do well.
End of this month until the end of February the White Bass will be in the Sabine river. The White Bass fishing should be interesting this year with the low water. Good fishing!
My Grand Pa used to take me fishing on all of those lakes when I was coming up. We used to go to Caddo on Christmas breaks and catch chain pickerels. Sure wished I would have paid more attention to how he filleted them and removed the bones.Quote:

This was my first encounter with the white bass in schools like that.
My grandpa loved gar fish---I had a guy to show me how to cook them and they were great---Need medium size Gar not large ones--maybe 2-3 feet. Anyone ever eat Gar. If interested I can post the way I saw it fixed--Gar are a plenty in the lakes and rivers.
Hey Jim what up ole buddy??

Go to Douglasville turn north on hwy.8 cross the upper end of lake
there is a ramp on right .go up the river and fish the tops.Have been
good ,haven't been in about 3 weeks. you will need a gps as there are
many things that look the same at the ramp,easy to get turned around.
Good luck .
