    TX > GOOSE ISLAND SP>APRIL 10-12,2015

    OK here is the new thread with the new date.

    Starting a thread about a possible hang at Goose Island State Park in April. This should give Spring Breakers time to clear out and the annual migration of the spring birds to come in. Not to mention IT"S OYSTER SEASON! There are great amenities and we are looking at the Bayberry section sites 107-118 as the beginning. These sites are water and electric, they also have multiple hang options. These are "cleared" sites so no underbrush. If you have any questions please ask. I will be talking with rangers this week to finalize everything. SO, get ready for some springtime hanging coastal style!!

    For those with Kayaks, this is an AWESOME park to paddle and fish from. Weather allowing I may be doing a sat morning run for some reds and trout. The pier is also outstanding and does not require a license. I have some lift nets and chicken necks for catching blue crabs. There is a great trail for a quick hike (also edibles.. *cough* Brandi) as well as Big Tree( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Tree,_Rockport ) just a few blocks away. There is lots of wildlife to see as well as a very friendly staff. I can't wait to show you "our park", and hope this is the first of many hangs there.
