A quick update on the events upcoming for this weekend. It looks like the weather has taken a turn for the worse. This week, high temperatures are between 107 and 110 degrees. Not exactly what I had in mind for the trip. That said, we push ahead.
We're launching the kayaks (now 3) in an undisclosed location on the Trinity River and paddling (and dragging) a short 3 miles upstream. It is at this location we will set up for the next 24 hours.
We're armed with quality tackle, quality rigs (I hope), a lot of water, and a healthy amount of ambition.
If we are in range for mobile services, we will update from the river, otherwise, a mass update will be provided upon our return.

August 6-7 / Alligator Gar
Alligator Gar (Atractosteus spatula). The largest freshwater fish in Texas, and one of the most primitive.
In August we will make our first *serious* attempt at catching one.
Fishing a murky river, for fish that can make 8 ft, and over 300 lbs, with a mouth full of teeth and a bad attitude? That doesn't seem out of the norm. What do we need to make it just a little more interesting?
Kayaks.
That should do it.
