It wasn't the ranger but one of seasonal folk that got all exercised. Something about oil and grease contaminating the beach and getting into the water. I pointed out that most of the boats on the water were 2 stroke engines and that their exhaust was putting all kinds of emissions into the water !! She was left speechless and left !! At the main ramp, there are a couple of handicapped spots just off the side of the ramp, on the right going up. Not sure why they get so excited when you park on the beach !! It can be a VERY long walk up and down those ramps when the water is this low.Rick sent me some pics of a couple of the crappies. Some nice ones. Not a lot of them in Echo but if you can find them and serve them the right stuff...the right way...they will cooperate.
By the way TD, those are some nice perch !! Rick and I scored some nice crappie at Echo the other day, before they shut the ramp area down. Have to put everything on hold for the next 10days, my son is getting married in San Diego next week and we are heading there for the nuptials. Will be back in business on Aug 16 !!
Didn't catch any perch over about 10.5 inches at Rockport but last year saw some that were pushing 13. Just gotta search them out...and be good and lucky.
