John Eldred here: 2021 is rapidly approaching, and I am beginning the planning cycle for our 2021 Outings. I have posted potential outings for Jan - June 2021 under the "Calendar and Outings" banner. At this point all of the trips are tentative, and I am looking for Trip Leaders. If you have an interest to lead one of these trips, or an idea for a different trip, please contact me on my mobile phone: nine 0 seven - three 0 one - three five nine five (John Eldred) All ideas, comments, etc are welcome.
Inspired by Robert McConnell's "Fly Fishing the Sam" presentation to the TFF Club on Oct 27, I made a day trip today to the East Fork of the San Jacinto River. Great day trip....besides the great hike and scenery, I managed to draw out a couple fish.
Fish were caught. People had fun. Absolutely beautiful weather. 24 anglers came out. Most caught fish, even though catching was slow. There were 6 campers the night before, and from what I hear, the weather at night was also perfect for camping. Next event here will be in April, 2021.
Texas FlyFishers will once again make a trip to Damon 7 Lakes in 2020 Cooler weather and biting fish are something we look forward to every year.
We were on the water and fishing by 7:30. Using 5wt and a 6wt we immediately started casting top water patterns hoping for the big bite. The lake is fed by three major creeks and offers fishing for crappie, perch, catfish, and bass. It is known for producing largemouth bass in excess of 10 pounds and large redear sunfish too.
Lake Raven day trip, Sept 26. Details to be worked. Fishing can be really good; it can also be very slow. Best time is early in the morning. The campground and lake are very nice...it will be a good paddle.
