Fishers on the Guadalupe River

From my older post it is obvious I was down in Texas for the fourth.  Beside checking out the Gruene Outfitters and the Gruene Hall, I road along the Guadalupe River to the dam to check out the water and maybe wet a line.  I never did get a chance to wet a line but there was a hatch and some other fishers on the river.

 Another local in one of the better spots.

 A tube hatch, we get these on the Leigh River as well.

Some large fish at the out flow of the Dam on the Guadalupe River.

Some very large Carp.

There was only one thing I could do with local angles in the best spots,
no flies to match the hatch,  and large fish well out of reach. 
Find a local BBQ place and have some brisket and ribs.

Forth of July in Texas on the Guadalupe River

Spent the 4th this year down in Texas and explored the Guadalupe River.  I didn't get a chance to wet a-line but I did stop in to the Gruene Outfitters to get some info on the river if I can sneak away.

The staff was very helpful and the shop was well stocked.

Gruene Outfitters.

You'll can see the keep the best flies just out of reach.

This is a good way to display flies at our next TU raffle.

If you find yourself in Gruene TX
you'll have to stop in to the Hall.

Take in a show and have a cold one.
