Yep, I don't normally fish weekends but I went today since the sun was finally shining and it was interesting to watch (from a distance). It's really interesting around the boat ramps.


To whom much is given, much is required.

I watched two boats yelling at each other and honking earlier near my house that hit. Fortunately they were barely moving... Just gets crazy out there.

if my neighborhood didn't have a private launch my boat would probably never get wet, stupid boaters are like snakes, warm weather brings them out in droves. lifted trucks slammed full of drunks dragging wake boats, coming to jam up a ramp near you!!!

How in the wide world of sports can two boats run into one another? And then stand there yelling and honking? It is a good law that keeps me unarmed on the water.

Old and intolerant am I.

People think boats are like cars you turn the wheel and it goes in that direction. They don't realize that boats turn from the back not the front! The spin into each other all the time. I love to sit and watch the activity at the ramps!

Some state parks do not allow firearms, so if you put in there, you would have been unarmed when entering.

State parks by law cannot ban firearms. Corps parks can.

Interesting. I know Tawakoni State Park has a ban on all firearms.

Guns
Q: May I carry my gun into a state park when I am traveling?
A: Our rules state that you may not show/display or fire your gun in a state park. If you have a valid Concealed Handgun License, you may carry your handgun in many state parks. But even with a CHL, handguns are not allowed in parks that are leased from the federal government. Check with the park before you go. Refer to Texas State Park Regulations for specific regulations - 59.134(d).

Tawakoni State Park is leased from Sabine River Authority and is an agency of the state. It cannot ban CHL.

MOST parks, city/county/State/ are posted with "NO FIREARMS" signs ... like most grocery stores, liquer stores/restaurants/Convenience stores/Walgreens have the "unlicensed carry prohibited signs" ... those don't apply to licensees carrying the type of handgun licensed to carry .... however, a CHL doesn't mean you may carry a rifle/shotgun/long gun into a no firearms posted park..

Corps waters ban weapons. That's crazy and a over reach.

That would be the law that states only LEO's are permitted to carry a firearm on a Corps Of Engineers Lake. This law is being challenged and is presently tied up in court. IMO it should be removed, but I'd check into it a bit more before loading the ole .44 mag in the boat on a Corps lake. Also worth noting, if in a fishing tournament having a gun on a corps lake would mean a DQ.
