can someone tell me were the camp spots below the dam are? i see a camp/pinic area on the brazos river site. i've looked at maps but have'nt had any luck. going to the river one of the last two weekends in march, want to head out friday afternoon and get on the river first thing saturday mourning. this is only my second trip to the river so im still learnig alot about this area

this area seems to be fished out. with all the rain i would recomend t-wok,lewisvile,lavon,cooper(ssl),texoklahoma,etc ,etc, etc.

There is a camping spot up under the dam ,beyond the hatchery. It is not directly on the river,to put in a canoe etc you would have to go back to the hwy 16 crossing

hey eddie thanks for the reply. how do you get there from the hwy 16 bridge?

hang a right before the bridge

Thanks to the so called "guides"

its not fished out. I thought you were joking just to keep people away. I catch fish there every time I go. The fishing does get better down there once it warms up though. And its hard to fish out an area that you cant get to unless you have a kayak or canoe. Not many people can get to the good fishing spots. Thats one of the great things about that part of the brazos. Its very remote with no trash. I love it.

And I usually throw all my fish back. I rarely eat them.

i was joking.
what made you think i wasnt?

Wow!

We kind of like our "so called Guides" here.

I'm just saying---

who is this wcl, and what is his problem?
i've never heard of anyone having any trouble with the guides or any other person on the river. shane and others provide great info and awesome pics for everyone to enjoy.

All I will say is this ,stay off and quit mooching of the fringe of private property just because some "guide"told you it was o.k. and by the way have some respect for the actual land owners,I assure you we have been here longer than 1989.Most of you guys and gals are gold ,but you always have your 10% that want to push the limits of respect and ruin the harmony that usually exist.

Why you defending Garland bend?Is that like a sweet place to fish?

There, I fixed it.

"...stay off the river and quit mooching public property just because some "so called rancher" told you it was o.k. and by the way have some respect for the rest of the river owners and stop taking our water so you can have pretty grass, clean cars, and Jeeee-hosafat stop chasing the grand-yungun's with the water hose! I assure you we have been here longer than 1989. Most of you guys and gals are gold, but you always have your 10% that want to push the limits of respect and ruin the harmony that usually exists."

The 10% factor fits every walk of life including boaters and landowners and I can guarantee you that at least 10% of the fish pee and poop in the river also.
