So here we are at the normal spot and as I land another 7 pound bass on my 3wt. I hear something make a noise behind me. My fishing buddy spence has an interesting look on his face and half his rod is lying next to me. I look at the water and see a 7 foot gator coming at us. Aparently the fresh water land shark either wanted the fly or my fishing buddy and my buddy broke his rod trying to catch or run from the fresh water land shark.



Or maybe just maybe this is a slight exageration in a bad incident that ended with a broken 5wt and a new 6wt TFO. Im jealous now I have too get my TFO profesional 3wt setup. I like the rod bud now my buddy will have to learn to cast with a real fly rod.

p.s. the broken rod was a 50 dollar dicks combo, incase anyone was thinking about getting one.

I fish Leon creek on Lackland quite a bit. Lots of bass and bream in there. Also good sized carp, catfish and some huge tilapia. No fly rod fishing, but ultralight and occassionally light bass rods. I also used to fish Salado creek on Fort Sam Houston back in 94 when I was a kid. Lots of fish in there too. Gotta love the little creeks.

Antywhere that can produce 6 reds 2 nice cats and a good carp in one slow evening is a good time. If you can sit in lawn chairs and drink till you cant fish anymore well maybe then its heaven on earth. lol

sounds like my kind of fishing, I have been known to catch a 10# buzz while fishing, lol. Im heading to a friends ranch to shoot some doves and fish some stock ponds tomorrow, but I will definitely get in contact with you guys. I have been wanting to go out to the lakes around here for a while but I didnt know where to start
