Thanks for the welcome, it's great to be back ! Answered in the order received \:\)

CB, you are coming down for PB2 right ?

Dave, I saw several nice bucks during bow season, then a lot of does. My Pop missed a freak 5 cull, that was the only shot fired. I'm still evaluating the population.

B'ski...lol, I have about enough $$$ left over to build on 1 or two ! I'll try not to kill myself on the remaining acres \:\)

George, you are a true friend, and I will build my new pond deep enough for some HSB too !

Bruce, you probably need to focus your attention on the equipment you will be using at the PB2 convention, you were a stand up comic my friend...you did recover very well, plus your swaggar made you look pretty cool in the end.

Theo, I will never be able to take you serious after those pics about sinking pond structure...priceless \:\)

Sunil, That does look like you drinking those imports, they really put the weight though...you look almost good to go for another 6.

Eric, you flat out rock, thanks for giving me one of Bob's PB T-Shirts at the last convention ! Oops, hope I didn't get you in trouble \:\) I put in 100 CNBG, 100 RE, 100 CC & 5LB GS. LBM in the 6" range are also present. With the watershed and the new pond being downstream, they will get in...I plan on a fast paced BG stocking plan (with tilapia, GS, & threadfins) to try to offset their presence.

Dwight, you really need to think about coming down for the convention...it should be a blast!

Davatsa, It's in Brown County Texas...if you look at a picture of the State, it's just about smack dab in the middle.

Jeff, it only looks that good because the water level was up, it's generally 8 ft. deep, and the weeds got very thick toward the end of last summer.

Tom, likewise...bring pics of your pond if you can ! When we had a small meeting at the DFW Airport (about 14 PB peeps), the pictures were the easiest things to discuss in such a short amount of time.

BarO, I hate to disagree, but the future TX Private HSB record will go to the guy who bought my property !!! Yikes \:\)

I have many other friends out here and I can't wait to hear how everyone has progressed...I'm assuming you all have close to 100% Relative Weights, right ? \:\)
