Turtle Creek Rumour

[ttwigg]

Man I grew up driving that long drive to have my string stretched. I remember fishing a tournament every year in Feb. and it was so much fun. I was 16 or 17 years old and the 14' V bottom we had was like a Z comanche, it had a 8 horse merc and it would wind it up. It was a 2 fish limit tourny and anyone could win. I recently talked with my old Turtle creek partner and he said to leave you bass gear at home and bring chicken liver and night crawlers. Catfish have taken over the lake. He was as serious as I have ever seen him. He was sad and I am too.

The limit was lifted because of the underpowered boats that hunt there in waterfowl season. Big winds were to much for the small motors. A guy got killed up there this winter. I am personally glad to see the 10 hp limit lifted. Now if someone gets in trouble in the winter they can get out!

Twiggy I can remember those days Turtle Creek was great I would make that 2.5-3 hour drive one way and fish as long as I could.
