Fishing at Lake Somerville Texas
If you are looking for a great place to go fishing, Lake Somerville Texas is it! With multiple parks, 2 marinas, beaches, even restaurants and grocery stores within driving distance, Lake Somerville has everything you need, including fish!
I am a city boy from Houston, but have lived here for over 6 years, sadly, when you are this close to the water, you tend to take it for granted, but, just before I moved here, I drove from Houston and fished almost every weekend! So, if you are coming here from Houston, Austin, or wherever, make sure to bring your friends, a video camera, and your best fishin’ hat. Before you come, make sure you register here and tell us you are on the way, that way, I can tell the fish your comin’, just kidding, but you can share your stories here with others. If you have ome video, you can share that too! So, come on, there are plenty of fish for everybody!
My favorite park is Birch Creek Park, there is a boat ramp, and, it is a State Park, meaning, even if you do not have a fishing license, you can bank fish or go to the pier, where they even have a nice place to clean your fish. Birch Creek Park also has some nice camp sites, and you can bring your horse as well! Soon, I will be adding info on the various parks, their websites and phone numbers, etc. So, make sure that you leave a comment and tell us all about it! Have fun!

The new year of fishing has begun!
How many have already hit the water and started fishing in the new year? I have the new fishing reports posted, and so far, it still says fair for crappie on minnows and green and black tube jigs, but, channel and blue catfish are excellent on bloodbait, if you are into catfish, that’s good news, but, I like crappie or bass, that and I am only fishing from the pier at Birch Creek Park, so, I have to wait a bit yet until the crappie get going when it warms up.
Last year, I wasted the last half of the best crappie season, thinking it might get good in the fall, but, I never made it back. I am sorry to say it, but I didn’t even have anything to write here, mostly out of embarrassment, because I wasn’t fishing, but, work also played a part in it. This year is different, I want to go fishing, I need to go fishing!
I am hoping that someone reading this will leave a message, as a comment here or as a post in the forum, and tell me they are going and meet me down there, it would make a great article and maybe even give me a chance to use my video camera and get something to post at YouTube and here as well. Remember, if you have a video from a fishing trip, and you would like to share it, let me know, post it at YouTube, and we can write about it here as well. The point is, let’s do some fishin’!

This is why you need the RC fishing pole
If you haven’t seen the video on the RC Fishing Pole, watch it. The guy in this video was not using one and, hey, I am sold! Oh, just happened to find the RC Fishing Pole at Amazon, by itself it is only $19.95 or you can get the combo, with a boat too for $67.90!
