      Welcome to the Houston Fish Box... I would invite you to some of the events here in town, but alas a 1500 mile drive might discourage you to much :)
      Again welcome to HFB :)

          I dunno, from my bed to amarillo is only 18 hours, thats a decent road trip. I long haul it when I go. I gotta come thru houston on my way down to weslaco for some feral hawg hunting.

            Well then, maybe you can plan one of your hunting trips around one of our events and meet everyone face-to-face!

              Wow, someone knows what a white devil is, yes I am a white boy but thats got nothing to do with it.

              Id love to, I do got a heated livewell with sponge filters in it, I am sure a few fish can make the drive back.

              I only got two real clubs up here, GCCA and greenwater, both swaps are hard to get to on a day the wife works and I am stuck with the kids, but kids are too young to go feral hawg hunting with me( Dont use a gun either to hunt them, bow or knife only) and the wife dont like long drives, sounds like I got it made. I will let you know next time I go down(forum that is) I hear there are some nice things to accomplish down in the lone star.

              I think I am the only redneck out of chicago too.....

                So many things can be a mystery, when all we're seeking is freedom...

                              As others have said, post as many pics as you possibly can!

                              Where exactly do you mean by "NW of Chicago?" My whole family's from Chicago, so I'm curious.
