^^This is critical!! Keep your eyes and ears open.If you see or even hear somebody coming for Gods sake move over to the bank of the river.This is very important at the bends in the river.

My advice is go south from that launch , you will get twice the bites. Seriously.....not just trying to keep you out of my wink river but the fishing up there has been way off since that big rain and the Lavon release.

Please don't run on plane in the river. wink

Just run wide open and trim it up. Plenty of water over all the stumps. You should be fine........ thumb

For those that know the River really well, no problem. If your a noob going up there, it's dangerous for yourself and others. Underwater hazards plus blind turns = bad news. Just a friendly suggestion to the guy describing himself as new to the River. cheers

Run it like you did into Glade! bolt


LOL - I totally deserve any shiat I get for that day!

So I came out of motocross racing thinking I was a badarse...the day I pulled my motor up the ramp was a huge learning experience!

No offense taken...I still laugh about it really...and I am much more careful!



Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

I wish I had seen this before I left at 6:30 this am...the fishing in the river sucked....going to go back out later and go ssouth...any help is appreciated.

I am a Fork homer and know very little about Ray Hubbard.

My daughters navy boy is home from deployment and I am trying to put him on some fish....he loved seeing the river this am...just not a lot of fish caught.

Motocrosser = good boat driver? learn something new everyday

Meaning he pays attention to surroundings while wfo. Motocrosser = good at everything else with a motor
