I read the story on the link, awesome read! Years ago I fished out there from a boat slip at that marina and had a blast also. I like the dock on Eagle mountain lake also, the one by the dam. How do you make the holes in the nuts? Cordless drill with a small bit?

Thanks all, had a blast. It was my first time back in Dallas since 2016. Enjoyed some good times both with extended family and fishing with Bob.
