Top Five Reasons To Go Fall Camping




Are you thinking about taking a Fall camping trip? Then consider these top five reasons to pack up your camping gear with the family this new season.


Summer is Gone & Fall is Here


With the busy summer season behind us, Fall is a beautiful time to go camping and relax. You and your family can watch the changing colors of the season and breathe in the newly crisp air. Camping in the Fall provides an excellent window of opportunity before the darkest days of the year set in.


Reason One – More Relaxing


The first reason to go camping during the Autumn season is the ability to relax more. Fewer people are camping at the lake, and this also means there is more availability of camping spaces.


Reason Two – Fewer People, Less Exposure


With the COVID-19 scare, many families are looking for a way to escape from the business of life safely. During the Autumn season, it is much easier to keep your distance while enjoying the outdoors. This can include making a new spin on your Fall holiday celebrations.


Reason Three – Creating Vivid Memories


With the Autumn leaves changing from green to beautiful Fall colors, you and your family can create vivid memories of the season. Hiking during the new season will vividly plant family memories never forgotten. You gain the ability to “take it all in” during this time of the year. Listen carefully without hearing all the summer hooray taking place. See all the changes taking place. Smell the crispness and breathe in the cooler air – creating an unforgettable experience.


Reason Four – Seeing the Wildlife


During your Fall camping excursion, you and your family can enjoy the outdoors more freely – see the wildlife moving about, view the changes in vegetation and trees.
Autumn campers will see more animals – bears, elks, deer, squirrels, moose, and other wildlife. Each lake area will include different native wildlife you and your family can see.


Reason Five – Fall Camping Discounts


Many campsites offer Fall camping discounts. Plan your family outing and call around to different grounds. Frequently, you will find more bottomless deals for your camping experience.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Sep. 24)

GOOD. Water stained; 84 degrees; 0.21 feet above pool. Striped bass fishing is picking up with the cooler weather. Fish are schooling on the right day across deep flats eating small shad. Catching fish on swimbaits and small topwaters. Bigger fish are on structure in 25-45 feet of water. Expect the bite on live bait to pick up over the next week. Catfishing is good on baited holes in the backs of creeks and ditches in 20-30 feet of water on punch bait. Bigger blue catfish will start to feed on deep flats 40-60 feet of water drifting cut shad and whole gizzard shad. Locate bass on docks and structure as the water cools off and fish start to feed more frequently. Reaction baits and plastics off the banks in 8-15 feet of water. Smallmouth bass are staging off the banks on points with structure in 15-25 feet of water. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. Stripers continue to be hit-or-miss with the best bite on topwaters switching to slabs later in the day. Target structure and the ledges of drop-offs in deeper water. Some bigger fish can be caught shallow in the morning. The forecasted cold front should improve the bite. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
