2014/2015 Deer season

I now have 3 really good ranches with excellent numbers of doe and some good antlers for the upcoming bow season. Two of those ranches I will have rifle hunts on when the general season opens, and I should have some MLD permits for doe. I can accommodate 20 hunters a day. Opening weekend is always full. So , if you want a spot, I am taking bookings now.  I give my hunters the best possible chance to harvest an animal. Your success is my success. I give my hunters 2-3 hours in the morning and the same in the evening. $50 sit fee kill or no kill per day. Kill fees on all animals including pigs. You will save a ton of money hunting with me rather than paying for a lease, fuel, corn, stands, food, and so on.


Axis will be ready to hunt by December. Our pricing on these animals has not been set yet. I will only have doe available this year.

7/30/13 River report

The river in Bastrop is stained, and as I have been saying the grass continues to grow out of control. There is so much grass in the river that the river level is up more than a foot above normal. If it will clear bass fishing will pick up, and floating grasshoppers under a cork can be deadly on channel cat.  I just hope LCRA does something very soon about the grass. Its as bad as I have ever seen it.

River vs Lake

Mother nature controls what I can do and when I can do it. The river right now is tough. Its off colored and not rock bottom low. Too make it worse the grass is as bad as I have ever seen it. With that said, as it drops in late summer big numbers will be caught, but I need the drop. The drop in water will clear the river and make these fish chase baits.

Lake Bastrop---- I dont normally take clients to the lake as I am set up for the river. However, if you want to catch fish you have to change your plans sometimes. I know this lake like I know the river. Our lake fish are starting to school. Schooling fish are the most fun and enjoyable experience you can imagine.  At their peak these fish look like pirhannas on the surface. They are very close to that point.  Dont miss out.


Today I had a young man from Colorado who is leaving for Afghanistan in two days. He will stay for 9 months. He is a part of military intelligence and is taking a group of interrogators over there. I have the upmost respect for all our military, and after spending 6 hours with this home grown Colorado  native but Texas AGGIE fishing and talking, I feel like this country is in just a little bit better place with this one man going over there. He has no fear. His direction is good and he made me feel proud to be an American, simply because I got to see first hand what kind of person he is.  SUPPORT OUR MILITARY.  They are why we get to hunt and fish and live a free life. Most of the rest of the world does not.

Bird watchers can see a rare treat

Bass fishing is slamming on river now. Duck hunters get ready. This second season is when it’s time to whack ‘em.  We now have three pair of bald eagles nesting between Bastrop and the FM 969 bridge. Also, I have a pair of Caracara below my house. These birds are native to Mexico and are not seen this far north very often. They are black with a white chest and redish-orange beak. They are lazy and don’t like to fly unless they have to. For you bird watchers, I have a full plate for you to look at.
