Camping at Colorado Bend

Shot over to Colorado bend last weekend and did some much needed un-plugging and fishing with a good friend. If you havent been, its a really great park.

Looked like a great time

Wish I was there right NOW !!!

Camped there one weekend on a deer hunt. Very nice park. our place to hunt was the section that you can walk down to the waterfall. We spent more time looking around than we did deer hunting.

How was the fishing? Whites biting yet?

Few small males have moved up, next two or three weeks and they will be there

Wife and I drove down Wed. and Fri. of last week and just fished for the afternoon each day. We caught and released over 40 each day. We kept a few for the skillet each day. Lots of females already there. Nearly all the fish we kept were full of eggs.

What were you chunking

I need to pull my camping gear out now!

haven't been to Colorado Bend in a few years was always a good time. Baylor the first 2 pics looked great the last one not so much

It was eleven years ago that Buchanan was full. Been downhill ever since. The last three years there wasn't enough water in the river for the whites to make there run upstream. Its still down 6.94' today but sure is adding to our early spring fun. Stub we were trolling 1/8 oz roadrunner jigs in white or chartreuse. And caught fish upstream and downstream of the ramp. We fished downstream of the ramp more because of the number of yaks, canoes, tubers, and waders upstream in the shallows.

Looks like a good time but did y'all miss the trash can?

Always ice our fish and clean them at home. Ninety miles round trip.

Looks Beautiful. Thanks for the pictures. I see you camped back out of the wind.
