Hey Anglers,
Name's Eric, I have a Youtube channel called "Boston Bassin." I love fishing, but have no one to fish with since I just moved here from Boston. I currently live in Plano, and I've been having a difficult time finding places to fish for largemouth bass. I understand it is a totally different ball game down here in Texas, but would seriously appreciate some guidance.

You are literally surrounded by good bass water. Hook up the boat, and pick a direction.
Just hang on when you get a bump....Texas bass are a little bigger than those largemouth you've been catching up there. You'll miss the smallmouth bite though. They are nowhere near the same here.
If ya just wanna go fish a small tourney as a partner deal, I usually fish 3-4 tourneys a week. Hit me up.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

Right but you can join a bass club and fish as a non boater in bassnation events and most clubs i know encourage boating members to take nonboaters. Its different for sure, but you get to fish some really good lakes.

Welcome to the forum Eric. I watched some of your videos. Very cool. I don't know if you have to work next monday or tuesday, but I have a back seat open af Fork if you want. All it will cost you is fuel over to the lake and back in your vehicle. That was cool what you did for that girl I think is was video 3 I believe. I have life jacket and food for you. You would just need your poles and tackle. Let me know?

Also post here asking about club info and you'll get alot of good info. Ping me if you head this way and we may wet a line.

Hey H20Dawg,
Unfortunately the only days I can really fish are Saturday and Sunday. I work Monday-Friday from 9-6. If you are ever available on the weekend, I will definitely join you. It has been my dream to fish at Lake Fork. Again, I truly appreciate you kind offer.
-Eric

Most people on this forum are retired and most retired dont fish on weekends unless its a tourney.
Find some clubs around you go to their meetings, join, be a non boater and get on some fish.
