There was some interest in having another run this year after talking with some people at Caddo, so i asked Tony B to post this up.
Should be alot of good riding, tons of grass and lilly's.

starting Saturday 15th at 9:00am at Hen House ridge.

A little more info for ya'll. Dam B is near Jasper, Texas. Which has plenty of hotels and restraunts and is centrally located for you North Texas folks and Southeast Texas folks. Also you La guys feel free to drive on over. Dam B has plenty of vegetation and lots of sloughes to get back into.

Sounds good to me.

Isn't Jasper Texas the place them moon crickets got drugged behind a pickup truck years back?

I hope I have my new hull by then.... Damn cypress knees!!

WHere exactly is dam b at? Did a search but couldn't find anything

Look up STEINHAGEN LAKE. It is just west of Jasper and south/southwest of Lake Sam Rayburn.

Here's a link to the Texas Parks & Wildlife website regarding the lake...

I might have to get me some crappies before heading back... I may make this run!

Roughly ~ 2 hour drive from Houston... Its North of Beaumont (way North)

Here's a link to Google Maps, just insert your starting location by clicking "get directions"

thanx guys. Coe let me know wat your plans are and we can Haul out there together

Sound's good..

In, provided my boat is ready........should be

Gotta check my schedule

I will be there!

GOT DAYUM! You would do this on a weekend of the Delta banquet up here in DFW. Otherwise, I'd be all over it and open up the bar back at the lake house.

You plan on staying at your camp and driving around to Dam B?

Just out of curiosity cause I've never been to this lake... What kind of mud and play area does this lake have to offer? Any photos from anyone?

Ill be there.

What the hell, Count me in.

Preston if you are going I may see about tagging along behind ya'll with my boat.

Turbo,

ran yellow lake / sweeney lake today in the area you were describing and the trails just north for a few miles

lots of downed trees to climb over and some really thick floatin veg

it was a workout - my hand is still crampin from hangin on and log jumpin


That "back loop" under the lil tiny 190 bridge was sweet - packed with
blackbellied whistin tree duck too....

I will be there

No pics - first time in the area so was pretty focused on mapping
and GPS - ran over 20 miles either at a crawl or WOT based on my
GPS route storage and Google Earth

Planning a return run - maybe this saturday

That "Back Loop" would make an awesome video - sweet area
if veggies and hidden cypress knees don't scare you too bad

I blew through at 30ish prayin harder than a nun on sunday
that I didn't T-Bone a knee.....

Well looks like I'll be off of work. But don't know if I'm gonna be able to go. Just bid high on a alligator lease I've allways wanted to pick up. If I am awarded that lease I may be temporarely short on excess cash. I'll know more after Aug. 4th.

Dammit man....surgury scheduled (deviated septum) for the 14th...won't be in any shape to ride...was lookin forward to doin figure 8's around gigafag in the floton

Any word if they are dropping the water level like someone mentioned in another post??

No change in lake levels...

Pics from this saturday...

nice pics Gig, caint wait

The back loop under this lil bridge is cool....

It is a tight fit...

Just thought I would let everyone know the status on the lake. I went for a ride yesterday evening and it is already down about a foot and a half and is going to drain 6 inches a day until it drops 4 feet total. There is already alot of ground showing and you cant hardly get around the north end.

Just an F.Y.I. for you guys planning on coming here.
