Man there are going to be a 'swarm' of folks out on the lakes, was wondering how many of ya'll were going to go fishing in all that? I'm retired so, not for me but I know and remember working for a living, many have to use what time off they have, crowds or not. Just curious.. God Bless

Hey man, completely understand. You do what you have to when you have to, make a living but there are probably going to be a 'ton of folks' out at the lakes. Good luck pardner. Hope you catch your new PB!!! God Bless Going to Coleto this weekend only time I have...yep gonna be busy..

Will probably get out on the water on Monday, but will be on the water at daylight and off by 10am. Shouldn't be too bad during that time.

I only wish we had enough water in our lakes out here to have to make the decision as whether to go or not.
At least my boat and truck are paid for, woo hoo!

I really want to but around here, there aren't many lakes with open ramps so there will be a lot of traffic on all the available lakes. I'll be staying home.

Man, I hate to hear that! It doesn't look good for us here west of Fort Worth and further. The predictions are for a DRY year. Man I hope they are wrong. God Bless I only wish we had enough water in our lakes out here to have to make the decision as whether to go or not.

I'll venture out on Fork during the long weekend. Perhaps after the sun goes down.

We make a trip to a different lake each year. As long as you don't go to a population center (Lake Conroe, Travis when it has water in it etc) it really isn't that bad.

My format for holiday fishing, on the water at daylight, off by 10am. Then get a few of your favorite beverage and a lawn chair and go sit by the boat ramp and watch all the "twice a year" boaters launch and load. It is the best comedy act of the year and its FREE!
