So we went to the Nueces river in the mid 80's while it was flooded. There was a good size whirlpool by the giant boulder where the river shifts from an Easterly direction to south right before hwy 83. I pushed my cousin off the boulder and straight into the whirlpool while we were horsing around. I watched the top of his head spin like a top for at least 10 seconds as the whirlpool refused to spit him out and I thought he would surely die and imagined telling his dad his son was dead. Fortunately, he got spit out and he surfaced above the surface. First with a loud gasp for air and then crying.
I almost drowned in chalk bluff😂😂😂. But that was my own dumbass fault for trying to swim from one side to the other..This area of Texas is gorgeous and the water so clear you can see the fish swimming. And if you wait near the shore part sitting fish will bite on your leg hairs thinking they're worms. 😂😂😂
Self absorbed, abstraction is more interesting and challenging. Love the way so many groups form, chatter to each other and turn their backs on the art.
I'm glad that they redid the Indian pier I remember when I first went to it back in 2005 It used to be controlled by a family and you would have to pay to get on the pier to fish and I was always a $10 charge and you would have to go through a gate and through the shack and that was at the entry of the pier now all of that's gone it's torn down it's gone and now it's open to just public just to go in and that's a beautiful thing to see that they changed it lot of good red fishing off of it
O use to live in Portland texas outskirts of corpus Christi the city and the beaches in corpus aranasas and rock port and all over south texas are nasty and hard packed sand and not white conpared to the squeaky clean fluffy thick white sandy beaches we have over here in gulf shores Alabama and oragne beach fl for some reason. But one thing is for sure that Indian point pier in Portland if you throw some soft plastics on a 3/8 jig hook woth a bass style rod anf spinning reel and when facing the pier go to the far left hand side corner facing back twords the beach and highway and boince and reel that jih head amd soft plastic eel type bait pff the bottom in a fast jerk and medium reel pace to reel in the cslack you will catch monster speckled trout there. I caught my all time personall best trout there which was was 29.6 inches at 12.7 lbs she was a monster and i always caught my limit of 5 trout over 15 inches at the spot in a hour or two everry time in early morning as soon as the sun starts to peak through the darkness is when you wanna start fishing and fish till about noon os the nest times there for trout. Especially right now in sorong time they are so thick in there they will hit the plastic soft eel bait as soon as it hits the water and if you free line a live shrimp right there by the dock and jaut let the shrinp donots thing about 10-15 feet away from doc you will nail monster trophy trout roght there as well like that if the spft plastic osnt working
My brother and I grew up swimming at chalk bluff back in the 60’s! My wife and I decided to take a trip so I could show her where we always went swimming a couple of years ago! I was VERY disappointed! In order to get to the river, you had to walk over the old river bed and when you got to the river, it wasn’t but about 12’ wide and all the other swimming holes were dried up! How times have changed even the rivers know it!😊
@@hoseiimaging6215 They don't have money for anything apparently. Roads, water leaks all over the town, the fact that the only form of news is a bullshit newspaper that is heavily opinionated and gives no platform to people to actually complain about all the nonsense
