Cant wait, leaving in a few weeks and got my crawfish cages ready! Bringing the Turkey Fryer for a big boil hopefully!

Thanks for the Tips Jim!

I'll be up the week before you.
Don't worry. I'll leave you some.

So Sad...only one day left...I'll be driving down 395 on Monday...

Fishing has been slow for a lot of folks since DFW isn't stocking as usual...
I've been pretty lucky to connect on 1 or 2 quality fish each day...
The 1/32 Black Gold and Yellow White Hook Up Baits have been killing it...my fly fishing buddy has been doing well on the brown Wooley Bugger and weighted line...
Rush Creek opened today and I only got slow fishing reports...

The Crawdad crawl was good...not great but Good...we had plenty for a big boil with 6 traps on a two night soak with bacon, chicken, and cat food...

I'll be at Silver Lake the two nights before I go home . Hope to have a good haul for a boil when I get home.

That one crayfish looked like it was 9 inches long, just scaling it from the 12 inch diameter trap.

Those are some great looking fish! I can't wait for my turn. I usually go up in mid summer when the fishing is slower. Guess I should schedule an early run next year. I hate the drive home
