Have been to Dumas to Pheasant hunt, my road dump there was unremarkable, thinking of going back in December but not to elevate the road dump. Sad little town.
Was sent a link to a fb marketplace for guy in Pflugerville. Hunted opening morning and limited out fairly quickly in between the Walmart and Baylor, Scott and White facility by 130. I can pm you his number. Was skeptical at first as there where so many of us out there but the birds were plenty. Was just looking to hunt birds again only because it's been a number of years since the last time, not looking for anything crazy. Places around Hondo, Uvalde and Sabinal can be incredible and over quickly if your on target.
Haven't dove hunted in a few years, went looking online to find a day lease around Austin and almost nada. Any suggestions from the Surl on where to look?
Have relied on friends with land but over the years folks get old and land gets passed along or sold so it seems harder to find any hunting opportunities.
The show is what you would expect for these guys, somewhat solid, all seasoned musicians giving the crowd what they want. Was hesitate go but had had a great time. The newer lead for Styx does a Dennis DeYoung thing a little too hard. Loverboy cancelled because of Covid allegedly. Friends saw the same show in the Woodlands on Sunday and the +55 crowd was headed to the exits by 10 because of the heat and related age.
Just got back from my second trip down there this summer, a few observations:
Noticeably more crowded starting on Thursday evening.
Every place has a long wait, even the donut place in the morning.
The twice the ice places run out early.
The Gaffer is still the tits.
The Port Aransas Art Center was a great way to chill for an hour while waiting for a table.
No rain, soft sand, pay attention when driving on the beach.
Port Aransas is still a great little town, can’t wait to go back.
