It amazes me at the lack of respect on hubbard, by what seems to be high school age kids along with elders in the wake board and pleasure boating community. last night we fished around the 30 bridge in a boat show, at one edge of the bridge. and instead of going around boats were rolling right between us!!! i'm talking about within feet of boats on both sides. i actually heard one female asking " what are all these boats just sitting here for". Are you kidding me? there was a whole bridge for them to go under and around us, yet they kept cutting right between us. Hubbard is the closest to my house so i get to spend more time on it, but it looks like between friday and sunday i'm gunna have to hit towak which isn't a bad thing by any means, just a tad further to drive.
Sorry guys, just had to vent a little.
Oh, and by the way- not everyone on the lake wants to listen to your music blarring! lmao

Was out Saturday early and about 10:00am I made the mistake of saying I was surprised at the lack of pleasure boats and jet fleas. Not long after that it was a zoo. You look around you and see wide open water yet they will come within feet for what seems to me to be no reason. It is a public lake and most of the public is only worried about themselves, not anyone else.

I've been fishing this lake for a long, long time and every June the fish show up at that corner of the bridge. So do the inconsiderate people. In all those years I've yet to see a boat get ticketed for going full bore through the no-wake zone under the bridge. The other day they were doing it over and over to my buddy and I. Next time I see the TPW officer I'm going to ask him to set up over there. He could write tickets all day long. Last year a huge boat came by me and I was the only one there fishing. So they are coming at me fast and then stopped. I glanced up and three girls on the back of the boat pulled their swim tops up. I kept fishing and the guy yells at me, "Your kidding me. Three beautiful women and you don't even stop fishing." I yelled back, "I'm a minister...." I'm not but have had a ministry for 30-years. I wish I would have had a camera to take a picture. The look of embarrassment on their faces was priceless!

I woulda done the Weiner thing............

Young'uns and Dads or maybe even Granddads "monies"....
Now are these ladies gonna be their future wives and childrens mama's...or were they making a hip hop video ???


As far as my own
I have called GW Operation 800 line once,gave very detailed info and cant say it made any difference. I and a few others tuned in a pair of violators (to long a story) and the guys show up this year doing the very same thing with same illegal stuff and equipment they had in the first place...
What you gonna do other than handle it your self which all ways leads to more trouble???

BTW - You are right on Frank. I don't think 97% of boaters Know what No Wake means. I see boat hauling arse under both 30 bridges all the time!

I have always wondered the same thing a whole bridge to go under and they come right through the middle of all the boats fishing. You think the we could label the columns for a section just for the party boaters to go under. Just a idea.

With 100 degrees temp, the peak summer high temperature along with high temper reports are coming in like clock work. LOL

Lake Ray Hubbard.........you gotta luv it.

Slide over to Cooper during the week and avoid the crowds! Twak is not too shabEEE either!

Its Summer and RH is always crowded! That's how RH Fishing GO on the weekends!

Was there sat night and it wad the most boats I have seen there in 3 months of being under that bridge. Fishing wad slow wife lost a HUGE hybrid.. she had a few choice words after that.. Sry if any one wad there and herd it.. it was het first and she was mad she lost it.. I said I wad Sry to everyone there. Anyways, we took 2 huge waives over the front from about flying through the no wake... dang ski boats. Next time, all us fishermen should go crowd the skiers tick them off and throw slabs at them...

We can't do that either. Always fun to think about though. Good luck fishing boys, be safe out there. Keep ur eyes open out there, and drink lots of water. We don't need anyone injured or dehydrated out there..

Tight Lines boys and girls.....

I was under the I30 bridge Sat. night and heard a female yell a few choice words....must have been your group. I counted about 20 boats when we left. Bite was very slow. I think I will stick to daytime fishing!

My rule is off the lake by noon. I have not evening fished on Hubbard in the summer in years.

Morning and evening ONLY on Hubbard on weekends-- or fish on a weekday---that's the way it is in the big city.
