New and saying hello......

[Team Buddhahead]

Just wanted to say "Hello" and introduce myself.
I live in San Antonio ,TX and fish the beach on North Padre Island. I target Redfish, Black Drum, Jacks and Pompano.
I have been buliding rods for over 20 years. I started in San Diego and now live in San Antonio.
Great Board!!!!
Thanks, Gary

I've noticed more and more Texas folks drifting in lately. Any point in a Gulf Coast board? Do we have a quorum?

[Team Buddhahead]

That would be fine....
I would be happy to share anything I could...

[Railroader]

Heck yeah, Flea! Maybe it IS time to bring back the "Gulf Coast" forum....;)

Welcome aboard, Buddah, nice looking fishin' family you go there...Gotta LOVE the pic of the little guy with the Shimano/Penn!!

[Team Buddhahead]

If you guys have kids you can understand what I go through.
When I sit down and start building my rigs my kids get involved....;) With two daughters 3 and 6 my rigs sure do get pretty colors if you know what I mean.
Here's my daughter with her first black drum on 4lb trout gear.

Welcome aboard. It's nice to see you teaching your kids early. Can't wait to see some of those reports from the gulf

That sounds great to me I would gladly post any fishing reports/ tips and info I have for the Texas coast and could probly help with the Louisiana coast as well.

Sounds like a good Idea flea :beer:
