If you are heading down to choke and want a little power plant fishing then you should hit up Calaveras or Braunig lake south side san antonio. Its state park, but there is not much action on the shore its on open water where the magic happens you can catch cats, bass, and some reds =) good luck wherever you go.

fw or sw?

... well college is here and i recently moved to U.T.S.A. *go roadrunners* so finally im on the right forum haha had to let the saltwater go *saddest thing ever* moving onto freshwater. I know there is calaveras lake and braunig lake but yeah im totally new here i went out and bought some new lures couple spro frogs, every kind of rage tail, rattle traps, some rapalas, lighter action rods then my sturdy stick. So, starting new on these lake and surrounding lakes, rivers, any help will be greatly appreciated.

I do actually =) when me and my freinds hit the water early enough ill pull out the lures never got a flounder though =/ dont seem to be very many this season havent caught one yet =/. Reds and trout however i catch a lot on beetle spins and gulp shrimp. Dead shrimp and cut bait is my choice though =)

thats a bull red =)

No problem your not alone my brother in law called it the same thing had hes been fishing the good part of 30 years in these waters lol

Thats pretty crazy never had anythign like that happen =/ you call the company or something or was it a fish you caught?

awesome thanks a lot =)

Thanks! =D so whats up with these fish? anything special?

I looked up rockfish and dogfish and non of the pictures look like what i caught. They all look tooo much like fish (weird?) what we caught looks more like a angler and has small eyes not big and round like the rockfish

So my friend was fishing with me today and he hooked up with this weird fish thing that ive only seen dead on the shore once. Its about 4 feet of saltwater inshore wading were not in the gulf just like a inlet kind of. Looks a lot like a ling cod or monkfish but im pretty sure those arent it. its brown no scales wide mouth that can swollow good sized fish and has a set of teeth that are a little back in the mouth before the gills after the lips. any idea?

well i just got back from a trip of fishing and i was catching decent not much trout just drum and few reds. Half way through i remembered about trout eating more suspended and thinking about it i realized its true catching trout always on the top leader never the bottom so i cut the bottom of a float off and slid it onto the top leader (slot? hook holder? idk you understand i hope) well i then crimped it in place and gave it a shot and my numbers of trout and red shot up! no joke i used my dad brother in law and uncle as a independent variable in this experiment and they were just not catching trout when i was reeling them in! Got going good since the bottom rig was catching drum and the suspending hook was catching trout pulled in 4 doubles (1 with a trout and drum, 3 with red and drum) all keepers good day of fishing great find =) just a tip try it lemme know how it goes!

Definitely. LMFAO!! XD

...so in the past couple of years ive been saltwater fishing ive seen the same old set up of leaders. Slightly modified but same. Mono filament, braid, steel, cable, single hooked, double hooked, all with the extra clip for a weight. So my question is, are their any other types of leaders or set ups that you all use for saltwater fishing and im talking about hook up some shrimp throw it out and grill up some fajitas until you see the rod holder tilt and the tip of the rod kiss the water.
