I am starting this thread for the trip swapping idea that was started in the Open Freshwater Discussion Area. I'll go first.

My home lake is Grapevine. I have a 1994 Procraft V180 (18 1/2') Fish & Ski with a 115HP Mercury I keep in a slip at Twin Coves Marina. I fish for Large Mouth Bass and Sand Bass out of the boat and crappie out of the slips. I live in Flower Mound, TX., am 49 years old, have a wife & 3 daughters but we are empty nesters.

I would swap for a trip on any lake, or bay, except Grapevine or Lewisville Lake. I am really interested in:

Lake Fork (Never been)
Fort Phantom Hill (Been to the fort but not on the lake.)
Any lake in the Austin area. (I have a daughter that lives there so lodging is cheap.)
Any lake in the Oklahoma City area. (Same)

If anyone is interested in a swap please email me. The email address is available on the email icon above.

If anyone wants to hit Choke Canyon or Falcon Lake give me a shout. No wife or kids, so any weekend is pretty much open for me. I fish for LMB and have a Skeeter zx185c with a proV 150.

This sounds great. Excelent Post ksutton:

My home lake is Joe Pool. Joe Pool may not be one of the lakes on your "must fish" list, but for me this is just as much about fishing with other anglers as it is about other lakes. I primarally would like to fish lakes around the metroplex.
I have a 17' DC Nitro with a 120, and can always manage a few fish on JP. The numbers on JP can be really good some days. I primarally fish for Blacks, but have been known to get on the sandies from time to time too.

I will certainly take part in this. Would love to meet more people from TFF. If you want to fish Granbury, or Eagle Mountain or possibly any other DFW lakes then let me know. Can always catch a few on Granbury or EM.

All 3 of you will be getting an email from me before the weekend is over. I'm at work now and am getting a little busy.

Kevin

looks like a good thread...

This has been one of the most useful threads on the forum. I've had some great fishing trips that I wouldn't have been on otherwise. Being a monetarily challenged college student, it's the best alternative to a guide you can imagine. No offense to guides, but I can much more easily justify some gas money and lunch or breakfast as opposed to the usual $200+ for a guided trip.
Kevin is a great guy with a great rig and I had a really great time fishing with him. I'd recommend him to anyone that wants to have a fun trip on Grapevine.

Wish I had a boat to switch trips with people on. However, here is how it usually works for me. A lot of people come out to fish Alan Henry and I spend about 80 days a year on the lake. Though I only do it on weekends (and on rare occasions a weeknight or weekday) that I have no prior trips scheduled or tournaments, I have been known to sort of guide people on the lake. Though its LMB only, if you are looking for someone to show you the lake, some prevalant techniques, some typical patterns, and some good structure your welcome to email me.

I should get out and meet more TFF folks, too. I have a white 2003 Triton V186 Magnum 18 1/2 foot aluminum boat with a Mercury 115.

I am a long time bass club and team circuit bass angler (only bass club these days), but lately I've been spending as much time crappie fishing as bass fishing. I seem to be slipping in my old age; this year I will duplicate my worst club finish: 3rd place.

I live 3 miles from the Loyd Park ramp on Joe Pool, but even though I've caught some nice crappie there in recent weeks, I am certainly no expert on Joe Pool.

The only lakes in this part of the state I don't know at all are Grapevine, Ray Hubbard, and Lavon. I'd also like to better learn Eagle Mountain, Granbury, Bridgeport, and Ray Roberts.

I have probably had the best tournament success on Texoma, Whitney, Proctor, Palestine, Limestone, and Lewisville (yes, I know, a strange combination). I seem to have mastered the art of finishing one place out of the money on those lakes. From late March to early May, I'm usually on Fork, sight fishing. I don't fish Fork the rest of the year.

I can't get off work during the week, but most any weekend morning when the temperature is above freezing, I will either be out fishing or riding my bicycle.

I'll be at today's crappie seminar at Sherman, and the one next month, too. I'm still a crappie beginner, but I'm learning.

Nick, I need to sign up for an EM lesson; I've been snakebit on that lake for too long.

Spinner, I'd love to get out and fish the Pool with ya sometime. If you ever want some company or give me a shout and we'll see if we can sync the schedules up.

Great thread. I fish Fork and Texoma a great deal. Run a Champion 203 dcx. Texoma for smallmouth and fork for monsters. Anyone interested I'd be willing to help on both lakes.

ChadK,
Most of my recent Joe Pool trips have been crappie trips, so I don't have much to offer for bass spots, but I'm just 3 miles from the lake, so if you end up without a partner for a trip, give me a shout.

Well, I've got my daughters moved (again) and race weekend is over. (Had a great time and saw 3 great races!) Now it's back to fishing. Give me a week or 2 to get back on the patterns on Grapevine and I'll be ready to take someone out. I would love to swap some time on Grapevine with one (or both) of you Joe Poolers, preferably for crappie.

TTU_fisherman,

Now that gas prices are dropping back down I might take you up on a trip to Alan Henry. And when you are in Bedford it's not far to Grapevine Lake. If you want to go sometime just let me know. We'll go out for a while.

Kevin

Hey all,

I fish all the local San Antonio waters including Medina, Canyon and Choke Canyon. If anyone would like to fish this area I usually have a open seat.

I can help out with the Brownwood Area Lakes.
I normally have a back seat open so if you are going to be in the Brownwood area, shoot me an E-mail and maybe we can get something going.

Bill, I just e-mailed you.

I think this is a great idea and a wonderful way to meet other TFF members. I live in the Austin area and I don't have a boat but would be willing to share expenses if someone has a back seat open.

BillM, I received an undeliverable message when trying to e-mail you. Do you have an updated e-mail address?

Thanks,
Mark

I live about 10 min from Ray Hubbard. Dont own a boat so most of my fishing is done from the bank on Hubbard. With the lake as low as it is all my fave spots are useless. Either way i would love to meet up with some guys and definateally try some new lakes. Hubbard and Palistine are the only 2 i really fish. Anyone needing someone to join em feel free to call me up. 972-288-4830 oh names Brad by the way. Looking forward to fijavascript:void(0)

Joey is my name, and I want to learn to fish San Antonio and also other spots.....I have a boat, or will share expenses on yours, would like to fish Canyon Lake, Choke Canyon, and the Gulf Coast

Joey

I fish Joe Pool most of the time but have been known to fish Grapevine and Eagle Mtn. as well. Never done well on Roberts, have had some good days on Hubbard. Thought when I moved to Texas I would fish Fork more but usually only 1 week a year. Fayette's a bit of a run but one of my favorites. I'm heading to toledo bend for a week in May and have been trying to find someone to hook up with there. If I can help ya out let me know. If I have a back seat I usually post it here.

My home lakes are cedar creek and lewisville. I would be interested in fishing any where withing 150 miles from dfw, just give me a shout ivie1827@comcast.net

San Antonio Ranger, do you have much luck at Canyon Lake and Medina? Close to SA, but never catch many fish there...
Now Choke will deliver usually.

I'm Josh. 22 years old, dont smoke, have a boat. I work Fri, Sat, Sun, and usually fish Choke, Coleto, and will start fishing Mathis in the next two weeks during the week.

17' dixie dual console bass boat, 85 hp.

Can fish a full day on $30 of gas each if we go halves, which isnt bad considering its $2.85 a gallon now!

i am new to the san antonio area and am looking to spend some time on choke the next few weeks. any info on where to start and what to look for as far as cover, structure, and productive techniques would be very much appreciated. i have a 20ft ranger with a 200hp evinrude. i am from the panhandle and used to fish tournaments in that area, the lakes down here are slightly different than what i am used to and any info would be greatly appreciated. I occasionaly have a back seat as well, but it is usually filled by my girlfriend.

I am new to the San Antonio area and am going to be trying out choke canyon for the next couple of weeks. I am from the panhandle and fished 4-5 days per week up there. I have been looking at maps of choke and have some decent ideas of areas to start at but local knowledge is always invaluable. These lakes are a little different than what i am used to and would like some info on where to start, types of structure and cover to target, and also productive techniques. i have a 20ft ranger with a 200hp evinrude. i occasionaly have a back seat, but my girlfriend takes it up most of the time. any info or anyone possibly interested in taking a 2-3day trip let me know.

hey Southtexas, where in the panhandle. I grew up in Andrews, but now live in south texas about 5 miles from the Mexico border

I am a traveler and will be in the Bryan, College Station area from the end of aug till mid nov. Have fished Conroe since '84 on and off, Galveston jetties, the bay and now have a 19.5' CC Kenner w/115 opti.

Hello,
I live in the DFW area and don't have a ton of experience but have a boat and usually always have a backseat available it is a 19 foot Chamnpion with 200 horse mariner. Will go to any lake with a little help on fuel.

Great Topic!
I'm originally from Iowa. Moved here 4 years ago to teach/coach. Right now I live in Irving with my wife and 2 year old son. I don't have a boat but hope to change that next summer.

What I have to offer is some of the best ice fishing you could possibly experience. For someone wanting to do something completely different...here's your chance!

I would love to fish Amistad or Fork.

Shoot me an email and lets see if we can get something set up!

jensenmd@hotmail.com

Make a long story short, got computer fouled up, had to change names. Was Centerdriver, now Kennercc. Found out not going to Bryan/College Station, but heading instead to Texarkana. Will be fishing Wright Patman and LOP mostly. Still will be taking the boat down to galveston for salt doing the jetties and near off shore. Normally fish with the wife, but she works on some days I want to fish.
Dusty

My name is Mike Mundy, live in Midland Tx but have a trailer at Lake Amistad. Will be glad to show you around the lake. Trailer is in Holiday Trav-L Park, Lot #136 (on the corner). Green and white, screened-in porch with a deck. Come on by when you have some time.

Coyotek, if you'd be willing to reserve the campsite at Emma long I know a whole Carp Brigade that would be happy to teach you how to catch MONSTERS from the bank in Austin. Just thought I'd throw out a bank fishing option. ALL anglers are usually welcome when we fish Austin. I hope to have a boat soon and will take some of you boatless members up on some knowledge of your home lake.

Dan in MN., come by and see me when ya get here. Can put ya on some good locations and even share my boat with you if you wish and go fish a bit.

How about swapping Flyfishing in Bozeman Montana for Bass/Crappie fishing in East Texas?

I would like to Swap a fishing trip to fork(I'm not a guide but know the lake very well). For a Deer hunt in KS,OK,West Texas.

This sounds like a great idea. I just moved from Ohio to the DFW area in February. I haven't been out on any of the lakes yet but am getting really anxious. In Ohio, I fished many local circuits along with the BFL and a few Stren tournements. I run a Champion 206 Elite dual console, I'll supply the boat and the gas if you show me the lakes.

My local lakes I fish are Lake Brownwood and Proctor. If anyone is interested in fishing these lakes give me a shout! Would like to meet some tff guys and share some stories and get the hook wet. - Charles cell# 325-647-9522

p.s. I own a 18ft. V.I.P Stealth w/ 85 hp Yamaha

My home lake is Lake Fork. I'm up for taking anyone out on Fork that has some general knowlege on bass fishing and a few bucks for gas...say $20?. Geez i miss 99 cents a gallon.. I've got an 89 Procraft 18ft fish/Ski 140HP

mostly available to fish weekends but with a little notice the weekday will work as well.

Trading a Minnesota fishing trip for an outing in Texas.

I have several Mississippi backwater areas and smaller lakes in MN with great fishing (20-30 fish days are common, 2lb+ average with several at 4ish and usually at least one over 5-6lbs) Other options would be Lake Minnetonka or smallies on Mille Lacs.

I have a 17' Bass Tracker with plenty of room for me and 1 other person.

The trick is, I am only in Texas this week through the 14th.

If you can get out fishing this week, and you plan to be in MN sometime this summer, lets talk!!

I'm a 22 year old colege student I live in San Antonio and am an avid angler for catfish, bass, crappie, etc. If anyone has an open seat on their boat let me know id realy enjoy another trip with an angler from TFF. You can PM me or e-mail me at liquidliferep@hotmail.com Im more then willing to pitch for gas or lunch etc.

Thanx, Alex

Hello all,

Newbie here, looking for anglers in the San Antonio area. I work Friday - Monday, yes it bites. But, that means I should have the lake mostly all to myself when I get there. Anyone willing to show the new guy the ropes? Please PM me.

Thanks,

Rodney

I'm looking for a fishing partner. I live in San Antonio and have a place in Del Rio. If you want to go fishing let me know when.

Hello, I live in west Fort Worth, have a 18.5' Nitro w/ 150 Merc. I primarily fish for largemouth, but also would enjoy catching a school of sandbass or hybrids or stripers; want to learn to catch crappie; and if nothing else, then catfish.

I usually fish these lakes, roughly in this order:
-- Benbrook
-- Eagle Mountain
-- Marine Creek
-- Granbury
-- Lake Worth (but don't eat anything from it)
-- Grapevine

I'd really like to find a permanent fishing partner, somebody around my age (i'm 27) and who wants to learn these local lakes or maybe fish in some CHEAP tournaments like "big bass fun". Mostly just for fun and catch dinner. If anyone is interested, send me a PM.

I fish for blacks but I get ion the sandies from time to time. I am open to any kinds of fishing and always excited to learn somtheing new, like age would be prefferred, and if you cant stand a little cussing and spittin maybe a beer here and there (not on the water or course)then this is not the fishing trip for you.

i would like to trade you a hog dog hunt. you interested?

I dont have a boat and only have a few days a week that I might could get out.. I smoke I cuss and love to fish.. only problem is I dont make alot of money so its a hear and there thing that I could throw down some cash.. I wanna fish some bigger lakes Ive been fishing the same private tank the last year with a buddy of mine... Im not the best of the best but just enjoy getting out and relaxing and maybe having a beer... I can offer a trip to a private tank in exchange and we could do some bank fishing or take the little boat out thats there but kinda hard to stand up and fish in a 12 or 14 ft. aluminumn v hull.

daltexmex i will trade you a fishing trip for a hog dog hunt. thats fun stuff. I have 20ft Kingfisher wt a 200hp Johnson fully loaded. I fish 5 to 6 days a week. Most of the time on the pool cause i'm just minutes from loyd park. But I'm very savvvy on most all the lake between Texoma and Whitney. I fish for Blacks,sandie's,cat's, crappie. I caught over 20 crappie last night wt my girlfriend on the pool.

I live near Lake Buchanan,Travis,LBJ, and Inx Lakes. I have a 20ft. ranger w/225 efi. I would trade a trip to Cedar creek. I am not a pro but am in the bass club and the Federation. I am available weekdays. Some weekends are open.

this is a great idea wish I had some experince I could trade but may take up the the gas money to pay and fish fork

Great post. Id be up for taking people on the guadalupe trout fishing, and I allso have a 30ft offshore boat with twin 225s that i fish outa port a and port OC. Not a real big bass fisher but i love all fish but would like striper, sandy, cats and crappie more.

Hi my name is Jeff. I live in Alvarado. I'm looking for someone to fish with. I have my own boat and fish Alvarado, Cleburne, Aquilla, and Whitney. I only work 3 days a week. I do fish a few working man and open tourneys around where I live. Do not want to travel too far. If someone else is looking for a fishing partner, maybe we could get together. I am married w/3 kiddos. My boat is a Nitro 16 w/60hp. Good boat for 2 fisherman. Prefer someone with their own boat so we can trade out fishing trips to keep cost down.

ksutton, or anyone else.I go to fork most weekends not looking to swap a trip but if you would like to go, we can make it happen. now about me i smoke and my choice of words may not be the best sometimes but that's the way i am,i'm not rude just cuss too much so the wife say's. but fishing is my tranqulizer. most people that work with me say i'm a different person on the lake. so if interested give a shout let's catch some fish.

I would like to trade a trip for a hog hunt, or any type of hunt. Fork, Ray Hubbard, Cypress Springs, Bob Sandlin, or Athens

I have a 17ft nitro 170dc w/ 90hp motor I live in austin area but have a house in zapata/falcon lake. I would like to trade a hunt or some fishing somewhere in Tx...doesnt matter to me

I have full amenities down south 4 bed room house so lodging and food no big deal...just some gas

Im off on tues. and wed. rite now but it rotates since im shift work.

ehy guys i dont have a boat but i am a beginner angler in the dfw area. i live by lewisville and close to grapevine. If anybody woulnt mind i would love to go out with some of yall to learn more and just meet fellow anglers. i am the only one in my family that enjoys the outdoors so i dont get to go with a partner often. also being in high school fishing isnt the coolest thing for others to do everyday after school.

I just posted the other day that I was looking for a partner, I usually fish Medina and Choke.... check out my post in the partner finder section and let me know if your interested in getting together.

Mike

Hi, my name is Dawson. I live in Tyler. Lake Palestine is closest to me, but I also fish for, tyler, and hawkins. In the winter time I mainly go for crappie and cats, I have a 20'6" Center console with a 115 yamaha. What I don't have is a lot of spare cash to feed it, so I am looking for people to split expenses with when I go. I usually make an all day affair out of fishing at least once a week, and I try to go in evenings when I get off work early enough. Im pretty good at cleaning fish too, and I don't take much meat because the wife is not a big fan. I have enough room in my boat for 3 or 4 people to fish, I also have enough gear to fish a few people. PM me on here for more info. I work retail right now, so my schedule varies, with most of my fishing being on week days.

My name is Bob Whitt and live around the San Angelo area.My lakes are Twinbuttes,Nasworthy,(big fish-hard to catch)Amistead,Brownwood,Ft Phanthom.Brady(nice lake),and on and on.Am 56 years old,a christain and fish full time.Would like to fish somewhere other than the desert.Have boat will travel.

Hey guys, I see alot of you are wanting to trade a fishing trip for a hunting trip. Well, I live on the gulf coast and when duck season comes up I'd be glad to take some of you out to shoot some birds. If you'd rather go dove hunting I could probly swing that too depending on how my land is looking this year (last year we murdered the dove). As for duck hunting Ive been going out to JD Murpheys alot (public land), always limit on teal, and later on in the year after those good cold fronts we shot lots of big ducks. I have a duck boat that is fully capable of going through anything with 4 inches of water (loads of fun). This year im lookin to get on a private lease depending on my money situation.

Anyways im 21 from beaumont TX, I love the outdoors and am looking to learn alot about fishing. Im no begginer, but im not pro just yet. Im very laid back, and very respectful of other peoples property. My dad and I share an aluminum xpress, flat bottom boat with a trollin motor, its not much for bass fishing but I still catch lots of them in it.

Im lookin for someone who would like to trade for what I have offered, and would like to take me to do some good crappie or bass fishing. I know these 2 seasons are complete oppisites, but im a man of my word. I'll even help you pay for the trip if needed.

Shoot me a PM, and we'll figure it out.

Hey guys i live in lubbock and have a small bass tracker boat ...i fish O.H. Ivie and millers creek have fished allen henry but havent figured it out. I grew up on lake murvall in east texas and have been fishing ever since. I know ovie the best up here and can put us on crappie bass or sandies...

I have a pair of nike shoes and a lot of bank to fish on a hard acess lake. Will swap for hunting or fishing trip. Had 20 black bass today 3-7 pounds.

comik29 i would not miind helping on fuel i would like to learn more about bass fishing. iam avil. on some weekends call my cell (214)244-7478 name is mike

Hey guys,
I live in Bentonville, AR. My home lake is Beaver Lake (Home to the first BASS tournament), I am an hour and 15min. from Table Rock(Missouri), an hour from Grand Lake(Oklahoma), Couple hours to Bull Shoals, and world famous White River.

Have a ranger 520 dvx!

Going fishing,

I moved to Katy, TX a year ago and have been fishing Conroe and Fayette County Lakes. Kids are grown...have a 19 ft Beeline with a 200hp Merc. Used to live in the Metroplex with Lewisville and Ray Roberts being my home lakes.

I go fishing most weekends...if interested in joining me give me a call or send an email.

I fish Fayette Co. lake a few times per month. If you don't mind driving down there, I normally have a back seat open. My boat is a 2008 Beeline 19.5 ft.

Send a PM if you are interested. Will be going there in there in the morning!

I am a guide in the middle Texas coast and I also work in the oil industry. I am staying in Decatur during the week and I am looking to trade some crappie fishing trips for some guided, wadefishing trips. I am willing to travel 1-1.5 hours from Decatur to get on some slabs. PM me if interested, or call (979)543-0140 to discuss. I have my own gear and I did well wading for crappie during the spawn. For those not interested in trading trips, I am willing to pay all expenses on any trip I am invited on. Thanks in advance and I look forward to meeting some of yall.

I'm moving into the Ft. Hood, Killeen, Copperas Cove area in late July. I need someone to teach me to fish Belton and or Stillhouse for just about anything that swims. I can back seat or front seat as needed.

For the last several years I have focused on saltwater fishing out of the Port O'Connor area and haven't fished freshwater much. My family has a little place to stay down there and a 22' Baystealth with a Yammie 150 to fish from.

My wife is due to have our third child in August and I have been informed that my weekend long, saltwater trip requests will be denied until further notice.

I can't go without fishing that long so I will trade trips to Belton or Stillhouse for trips to the Port O'Connor area in the late fall/winter time frame.

I have had a great deal of success fishing crappie on Belton and Waco - april-october. (former guide and still fish a lot of tourneys)

I'd be interested in trading trips or information for anything in the Coastal Bend area (bay/offshore) or even looking at Dove or Quail hunting opportunities.

I do travel down that way and have a 22foot triton center console.

I live in Del Rio and will show you around Amistad if you are interested.

I live between Lake Waco and Lake Belton. I am new to fishing freshwater but am ready to learn. I have a 2006 Nitro 17.5 with a mercury 115. Would like to have someone go and maybe show me the ropes. Can be available almost anytime.

We are from Nebraska and are going to be in the Corpus Christi area July 17-23rd. I am looking to see if there is anyone who my husband and son (12 years old ) could fish with? Hubbby is an avid hunter here in Nebraska and would love to show anyone a good time if you ever wanted to come this way for a duck or goose hunt ( or deer, turkey, pheasant...) We are not looking for a big fishing boat, just someone who loves to fish and show people a good time. We would be willing to help pay for gas or bait or anything like that. Thanks in advance for any help!!

Hello,

My name is Michael I live in Lavon and I am trying to learn the area lakes. I have a 21 foot Kenner center console. I moved to the DFW area in 09. I grew up fishing Toledo Bend and still try to go there when I can. I have a camp there I can use. So far I have been unsuccessful meeting anyone around me that fishing for Bass. They fish Lavon for Catfish and Crappie. Crappie can be fun but I have not done that in years.

If you know the lakes but lack a ride or would like to swap rides, share expenses drop me a note.

I love to fish and my favorite is super fluke and lizards. I have fish rattle traps and jerk baits but I am a bit rusty.

Take Care and good Luck.

My company has a fish camp in Rough Canyon on Amistad. I would trade a weekend on Amistad for a trip in the Austin area. I live on Travis, but I want to fish some of the other area lakes, LBJ, Buchannan or others. Let me know if interested.

Don't know if this will get any interest, but I'd like a small pond/lake to fish with my young 8 yr old nephew.. he is new to fishing and loves it so far... somewhere we can catch a few fish...

I will trade for a few golf lessons... if anyones interested in learning the game on here... hey don't knock it till ya tried it..
anyways, I live in Forney, but we'd be interested in driving a little bit if the fishing is any good....

I have been playing golf over 20 years, but am a lot better at teaching it, although I am a scratch golfer... specialize in teaching all parts of the game... short game, irons, driving, putting, course management, mental game, the whole shebang...
anyhow send me a pm, or feel free to call Ben at 817 657 5597...
Also note I have been a catch and release fisherman since I was a kid and fish for black bass mainly....

New to the area I recently moved from Kansas City and looking forward to hit the water. All I know about local fishing is what I have read on this forum over the last few days. I have a boat but would prefer to hit the water with a local expert first. Let me know if you want to show me around the area. I have all my own tackle and will happily chip in for gas.

Hi Guys,

I was referred here by a member on a similar site that we have for Wisconsin, lake-link.com. I am down in the Dallas area for work for a 2 weeks, Feb 11th-22nd, and am dying to get out open water fishing, we have been ice fishing the last two months. I have no gear down here so I was considering going to the Lewsiville Lake barge since I can rent equipment there, does anyone know of anything similar that would rent equipment?

Also, if anyone has any interest in having a fellow fishermen from Wisconsin go out with them I would appreciate it, I am free all day Saturday the 16th and Sunday the 17th. I am an avid fisherman in Wisconsin mainly targeting walleye but do the occasional bass fishing. If someone was willing to take me out I would gladly return the favor if they were ever up in Wisconsin and help out with bait and gas costs, I do have my own boat and plenty of gear up there. I am 26 years old and a very respectful fisherman and person in general.

I know all of this is a long shot but if anyone has any information to help me out please email me at timwollak@gmail.com

Thank You,

Tim

I have a 21 ft CC Kenner. I moved to Dallas in 2009.
I live on Lavon and have caught a few. I want to learn the DFE lakes for LMB mainly and crappie if the big boys are not biting.

If you know the lakes but do not have a boat at the moment drop me a PM.
If you want to swap trips and show me where to go snd not go I am willing. Weekdays or weekends if I am home. I work a rotation.

Sorry just found an earlier post of mine in here.
Lol same deal though.

Good luck one and all

What an AWESOME idea! I will be moving to the DFW area soon, and will certainly participate. I will be either On the NW quadrant with Grapevine and Lewisville and Roberts, OR possibly the NE with Lavon and Hubbard as home lakes. I will re-post when I'm set. What a neat deal. Until then, tight lines.

Like this tread, ck site below, my boat.

I would love to hit either just moved here from AZ and sold the bass boat and have not replaced it yet. Ive fished a few tournaments but that was a derby at Canyon and up northeast texas. Im dying to fish any of those and Amistad too. I just havent met the fishing guys as of yet. Only new friends are golfers. Give me a call.

I have my own boat, what kind of deal could you do for show around LAke Alan Henry?

Hey guys. How are costs typically shared for a trip? If I provide the boat, how are things split up? I'm thinking about bringing one or two folks up to Texoma, along with my 6 year old son.

Have it undersood up front so there is no suprises on anyone's part.
You want to split the trip 3 ways with 3 people.

The best way is to keep a log on the dash of the truck and tell everyone what ever is bought for the group the recipt goes in the book.
- gas
- motel
- food
- ice
- oil
- boat snacks

When the trip is over everyone adds up their colum of expenses.
- John spent $400
- Bill Spent $500
- You spent $600

Total trip was $1,500
Each person's part is $500
- Bill is good on his part.
- John owes you $100
