A week of buff/carp in Dallas

Back from an epic fishing trip in Dallas. Plan was to do it myself and land my first buff, hopefully in the 20 lbs range. Mission more than accomplished, read more details about my adventure at:

Thank you Finley (txmultispecies) for all your tips, and "Buffalo" Bob (Kaboboom) for inviting me out to fish your unique setup with you

I read the story on the link, awesome read! Years ago I fished out there from a boat slip at that marina and had a blast also. I like the dock on Eagle mountain lake also, the one by the dam. How do you make the holes in the nuts? Cordless drill with a small bit?

Awesome stuff Phil! Congrats again on landing several nice size Buffalo, was really happy to see you accomplish your mission down here.

Boilie drill, by hand. Too sensitive/soft for electric drill.

Thanka again. Have to say, if someone were to replicate that setup on Fork, they would have some serious fun.

Great read on your story. Glad you had a good time in Texas.

Nice buffs and great report. I’m glad you had such a good trip to Texas.

Great write up!! I enjoyed the read!!

.... Hmmmm using People Grade Peanuts n Almonds......might try that.

Nice fish! Good job.

Beautiful fish! Nice memories
Tnx for sharing, man!

I've caught many a fish on nuts - they're one of my go-tos when the bite is tough!

Thanks all, had a blast. It was my first time back in Dallas since 2016. Enjoyed some good times both with extended family and fishing with Bob.

Nice fish. You do catch some big ones.

Totally Agree!

Excellent write up and lovely fish!
