Freshwater Outing announcements and discussions pertaining to the planning and preparation of outings. Look to the Freshwater Forum for trip reports etc.
6 people signed up, but we had 19 fishing the event.
Everybody caught fish, but the fishing was slow. “Puck” only caught 27.
Large-mouthed bass, red-ear sunfish, bluegill, and tilapia all came to hand. Some of the largest fish hit top-water flies, and even more hit sub-surface.
Weather is going to be much better than our April trip.

Left Katy at about 0900 and traveled up to my old stomping grounds. I wanted to see how the conditions were before the club outing.
Fishing the Sabine River, the generation canal @ Toledo Bend, October 2018
I had a few surprises, but was still able to catch fish.
From Richard E.
“Due to the impacts of the flood we regretfully decided to postpone Oktoberfisch until 2019. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by this tragedy!”

I have cancelled this trip. The river is very muddy, and the take out is quite difficult due to the steepness and mud. Report is fishing is not all that good.
Texas FlyFishers of Houston and The Contraband Fly Casters Club
Event: Fishing the Sabine River below the generation canal
When: October 27th, 2018
The way we used to track participants, with a sign-in sheet at club meetings, didn’t allow the participants to be notified of any changes to the event, (weather, high water, muddy water, bad tides, etc.) or coordinate what to bring (rain gear, food, camping supplies, etc.)
The Fredericksburg Fly Fishers will host the 2018 Oktoberfisch at the South Llano River RV Resort from Fri, Oct 19 thru Sun Oct 21. The three day weekend event will be filled with fly tying, demos, raffles, vendor booths, and of course fishing. Registration and more information can be found at: http://www.fredericksburgflyfishers.com.
