got my introduction to Texas gators when I woke up on a picnic table at the calliham unit, got in late and I opted for the table vs. a non reclining truck seat.

woke up with 2-3 gators not too far away.


choke was amazing back then, 79-81, caught a lot of 5+ back then.
fork is tied with choke imo, always a challenge and spring/fall are my favorite times.


Choke Canyon was impounded in 1982.




I wrote the same thing, posted it and then deleted it. I was kinda curious if anyone else would say anything about it being a bit off.

Most fun day was either on Belton chasing schooling white bass all over the lake, or Houston County simply fishing schooling bass out in the middle of the lake. The Houston County day was the first time I hung two bass on one lure (rattle trap)

Don't get me wrong, I'll all for going after big fish. But I'll tell you, chasing schools running on top of the water is just as fun IMO smile

Kurth 1999-2010, falcon pre 2012 and it's not even close for numbers of big fish anywhere else. But....my favorite place is the devil's river by kayak or canoe in the fall. Been doing it over 15 years. 4-5lb larges and small mouth on topwater in skinny water is a blast

Hard to beat Fayette for fun. I can count on one hand how many times I did not catch at least 25 bass in a day of fishing.

I have been wanting to do that devils river deal a long time, its on my bucket list. Never fished on a Kayak, so that might be a problem. I was born and raised on a bass boat and one day I wont have any Tournament championships in fall. In my life I missed Falcons prime and crossed 100 times over it deer hunting in Mexico. Conroe's prime was fun won a bass-n bucks with over 32 Lbs and 28 lbs got last check. Amistad was my favorite because it was different to me at the time never seen water that clear ever. Amistad still holds my PB and I caught it Jarret same day you caught that 13 something on NAC lol. Sam Rayburn and Toledo are probably other peoples favorite and they are fun but when you fish those 24-7 like we do something different is just down right fun. Its the exploring new venues and scenery that make Amistad and Devils river something special and truly GODS beautiful creation.

I forgot Texoma, Richland, Cedar Creek and Livingston also have a special Place in my heart because of the cash check ratios in bass tournaments.

Thats my answer. My best friend from college is a game warden and was stationed there. Twice a year I would take a week off and go fishing with him. Fish Amistad 3 or 4 days and a day of trolling for sand bass on the Pecos.

Choke Canyon was impounded in 1982.


The Calliham Unit con­tains 1,100 acres in McMullen County. It opened on Aug. 21, 1987.


Can’t believe they put the picnic tables out nearly a decade before the park was opened

We're taking 2026/27 right? How is the future of bass fishing? Also, did this post piss people off in the future for lake naming after you time traveled?
