    Our wonderful TV news people

    Jack, I saw this same piece on the national news two days ago and noticed the 9mm as you did. I also have a set of mass communications degrees, and have chosen another profession because of these kinds of activities. I was in Vietnam during 1870-1971. I remember exaggerated North...

    Rally in Texas

    If you would like to enjoy the beauty of a large clear water lake on the outskirts of the Capital city (Austin), then let's see if we can't have a get together on Lake Travis. Another good choice for trophy bass is the next lake below Travis on the Colorado, Lake Austin. Hydrilla and hungry...

    Motor overheated and a Jet Skier

    I was on Lake Austin fishing Sunday. What a beautiful morning. I lost the tail on a couple of Grubs, but no fish. It was a little tough for the Jet Ski's to be out with all the "big wake" boats pulling trick ski's. Not great to fish with all that wake either, but it's their time of the...
