This is actually a fun event
, two of us from the crappie club have been going the last several years. Your camping and launching fees are waved by state parks
. A lot of people will launch and fish some then beach the boat and pick up some trash in bags then go back to fishing. Several boats from g and f will be on the lake to get trash from you so you don't have to return to the launch ramp. You can spread out and hit the shoreline if you don't have a boat. Stew the wildlife manager for alamo lake does a great job organizing this event
. You don't have to work 6-8hrs straight, take a break. The steak dinner in the evening and the raffle is fantastic
. You would be surprised how much trash gets picked up during the course of the day.
