They find bodies in houston and dallas everyday too Just another reason I live in Longview and fish Lake o the Pines. Worst story to come from Pines was a guy who hung a donkey from a tree. I like my freedoms and my distance from the border and the big cities!

Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youดre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Last I heard people try to come from their side to our side. Maybe he didn't swim so good. Just saying.
On second thought, the violence at Falcon is out of control, dont go there without a bullet proof vest and an M-60 mounted to your leaning post. (that would look cool)
Better yet, stay home.

With the law enforcement presence on Falcon, I feel safer than in Dallas. A body in the Salado could very well be a netter. Like anywhere, keep your eyes open.

You are in a a different country when you are on the mexico side, we have all seen what is going on there as well, Its good when a fellow fisherman post because they are looking out. I will say this though, The wind may play a lot more of a role if the front stay on course vs fishing on the side of a 3rd world country this weekend. Fishing the damn or getting to the damn, Salinas or anywhere may be something a bit more dangerous.
I am blessed to have a opportunity to live a childhood dream as a professional wrestler

With that north wind a howling like it's predicted, there will be hords of bodies stacked up on the shoreline of the dam this weekend. God rest that person's soul.......thanks for the info.

I hope the media gets ahold of this and blows it way outta proportion. I remember the good old days when people were getting shot down there and we had the lake to ourselves. Sigh.

The week I was there.....a guy staying a few doors down also found a body floating. They called 911 and went on their way.

Yes people die everyday. People get shot in Dallas all the time. There is also a reason why I don't take Sunday drives through the projects. It increases the risk I might be involved in an accident.
I for one appreciate the post and warning. I am fully capable of making a sound decision once I have all the information. The news doesn't report half of it.
There is increased risk of danger while fishing Falcon or going to Mexico on a fishing trip. Doesn't mean you shouldn't or can't go. Or doesn't mean you are going to get murdered 100% of the time. If you don't acknowledge the increased risk then you are an idiot.
