By Anglerwannabe On April 6, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Lost and Found

By Anglerwannabe On April 22, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I’ve been itching to get a boat again after watching the local tweeps from the sidelines talk about all the water they’ve been accessing lately. Being a wader only in Texas really limits the spots you can fish. Having a 4 door sedan and a Mini Cooper doesn’t make it easy to get the more […]

New Headwaters rod fishing report

By Anglerwannabe On January 2, 2009 · 2 Comments

While I was in Houston for a Christmas visit with the family, I snuck out to a manmade pond at my mother-in-laws office. Not exactly the most serene natural setting but it would have to do. I brought my new Headwaters bamboo 5 wt rod to try out.

Conditions were a bit nasty with drizzle […]
