Because we don’t have a hunting lease, and probably couldn’t afford one anyway, Steve and I rely on the Texas public hunt system for our hunting adventures. We have been doing this for many years and it has worked out well for us. Usually. By hunting this way we often Continue Reading;
Of all of the Texas Public Hunt systems Wildlife Management areas, Keechi Creek WMA holds a special place in our hearts. It was at Keechi Creek, about 25 years ago, that Steve and I started our public hunting adventures. Without any property to hunt of our own I looked for Continue Reading;

Steve Bradbery and I headed to Matagorda Island to see what new adventure we could find. The weather was awesome and the water in the bay was clear and calm. We unloaded the boat and set up camp and then decided to go fishing. Matagorda is known for the great Continue Reading;
