First of all, all you REC guys make sure you put this game during deer season when they join the SEC. The rumors are true, giant deer all over no where to hide, and they are stupid. The turkey are like giant road runners that actually come when u call them, even better hunting so set those baseball games up in Turkey season. Do you own research on exotics. But if you see one u can shot them anytime.
Lake Travis is freaking beautiful, deep clear water lake that is worth seeing about 30 minutes outside of Austin, pontoon boat rentals are available, etc. It is also one of the few places in the world you can catch Guadalupe Bass, which basically look like a hybrid small mouth, but fun to catch, knock that off your bucket list. Half a day is fine.
So what can your wife do while you are fishing? there are outlet malls at San Marcos and Round Rock, so she can spend your money and make you pay. (The big money outlets are at San Marcos)
If you have never been to the Alamo or river walk it’s close enough to detour on way home, or Waco if she wants to see those guys.
There is a fish bowl in Round Rock attached to the Bass Pro which is a funky bowling ally.
Also the Texas Museum right by the Otis has been on my list forever.

I forget the game is so early they got the whole day left activities. Except true hardcore Bama fans will bar hop for spots to catch the rest of Saturday’s line up games

That’s a great drive. i don’t know about these haunted tours, I am working on a real one for around Halloween, but when I say real, I mean pain the chest maybe never fully recovered shite. There is some really creepy shite in them hills. Watch these woods are haunted if you want a glimpse. The boat shite and walking trails are your best bet.

The Bars on 6th street are great for that, the roof top bars at hotels. They have an excellent music scene.

I've no respect for Tx trophy hunters.
Find the 8 trees on your 250 acre lot and shoot a turkey.
Use a 25 ft tri-stand cut directional shooting lanes near a river (a creek in any other state) and put out feeders.
Trophy hunting at its best.

Torwick is awesome, tell him the guy from Mobile sent you. Bass Squatch is great too. Don’t use Fishing Brooker to book your trip call them direct. I am sure they can do night trips too. They are not liberals by the way.
it’s kinda cool to see the all those 50,000 square foot houses on the lake too. I kid you not, one has a giant tower on it that looks like it’s from a castle. when these oil boys get in pissing matches on building bigger house etc, it’s unreal

Army, I share your sentiment. My guide fell asleep and I called in dozens of turkeys, and the OB can tell you how bad I suck. Took me years of blood, sweat and tears, getting bit by a brown recluse, etc to kill a Mobile area turkey. 45 minutes in Texas and there were so many of them, the only hard part was getting my gun up. No sweat, no blood it’s ridiculous, and if I saw one deer I saw 300 on the way in.

Ok the damn limes and electric scooters, they are fun but you need to download the apps and understand the zones. if you go out of your zone it dies. And don’t do this shite drunk or you get your arse handed to you if you don’t end up in hospital.

The Texan is right, And they are good recommendations but we are too lazy to look through pages of stuff for different things.
We need a Separate BBQ thread, and Steakhouse if you want to start them tomorrow. I haven’t hit the BBQ places yet. I am not putting any food stuff here.

This is another thread in what has been a series of some of the weirdest this site has seen in a while.
Pies? Bats? Do you have some sort of financial interest in the Travis county chamber of commerce?

Nope I just want my bama friends and neighbors to have a good time.

The game is 2 days away. No one is modifying travel plans so they can go fishing for small unremarkable bass while their wives go to an outlet center in San Marcos.

it's an expensive trip to the grocery store. If you're not putting in the sweat for the hunting gods good karma, it isn't the same.

If you're staying downtown be sure and always hang out west of Congress. Anything east of congress is full of homeless stinky people.
Stay away from 6th street...that place is trash.
2nd street west of congress is pretty clean. Also, south congress across the river has some decent food.
Someone already mentioned Fredericksburg. It's a neat little town founded by Nimitz I believe. The drive will take you thru hill/wine country.
