Alright guys, I'm headed down to Choke to poke around a bit. What is your advice on not ripping off my lower unit? I'll be putting in at Calliham. Thanks!

"What's some advice on getting around Choke" "Call Dannie Golden, I hear he's tearing em up!" How does that have anything to do what the OP asked The OP is going on his own time, with his own boat, fishing on his own, and wants some advice on running around Choke Canyon. I don't mean to be an [censored] or anything. That just annoys the hell out of me

Idle, is your answer.  My boat doesn’t like me anymore! You just gotta do it Stank style and let it roll coal.  Good thing all the fish are behind Huisache and there’s no brush back there. No worries about scratches or lower units. Hey Mr. Minner, can you share some wypts with me and what baits I should throw???

My secret weapon is flex tape, yes, flex tape is as essential as Tp down here..

 Flex Tape! Heck, we should do a commercial. I need to start using flex tape for my lure, about the only way I can get a bass to the boat. For all you guys that think “Chokes on fire”....well, good luck.

Like any other Texas lake with timber, you can just hit the hammer and hope for the best or idle and mark trails until you feel confident in your ability to run the lake.
You’ll have an amazing time I’m sure.
