I posted a report in the Photo Section on my trip with Shane Davies to the Devils River via the Lake Amistad route. Click here to read the report.

Agree with Dean (District Paddle) about those two clear water pics--unbelievable. It's even more amazing in person.

Great write up Danno.  The pleasure was mine, amigo. Thanks for booking the trip. No doubt, this is the premier kayak fishing adventure in Texas. The catches and photos speak for themselves.  Congrats on your trophy smallies!!!

Thanks everyone!
I am a photography enthusiast so I brought my camera with me on this trip in hopes to get shots like these! B_rod is correct though, you have to see it in person. No photograph I could take would do it justice.
We were catching bass on just about everything. I think if I would have asked nicely enough, they would have jumped in the yak for me lol.
Not many "rapids" per se on this trip Dave. The Ouachita had three times as many shallow areas than we encountered on this trip
