Funny you say that, I grew up in Orange Texas, 90 miles South where I live now on Toledo Bend. Back when Rayburn and Toledo Bend opened myself and a few friends started coming up here every weekend. Then we read an article about night fishing for bass and we wanted to give that a try. Well we came up here every weekend for 10 years except for hunting season/winter. We would come up one afternoon and start fishing and would only stop to eat breakfast, maybe. Then late that afternoon would drive back home and it's amazing we didn't ever have a wreck, lol!
We even would drive all the way around to the North side or Rayburn to put in at spots we wanted to fish. That drive was even longer that the 90 miles to where I am now.

So even though we had all the saltwater near us, we would drive that 90 mile because it was so good here!
