that late gate entry, as well as limited lodging facilities, might hamper our efforts (and maybe limit attendance, too!). Don't get me wrong, I've wanted to fish that pond for a long time, given everything Rob has had to say about it over the past few years. I just don't know if we can pull it off, if we don't have everybody camping overnight within the gates. UNLESS, maybe, we can NEGOTIATE something with the owners/operators, about opening that gate up a little earlier that weekend. Of course, camping is still gonna be a little dicey, given the potentially nasty weather for that time of year.

I don't know...

San Antonio might be a reasonable option, as John has suggested. I personally have never fished there, but with it being an hour or so CLOSER to us than S.Marg., and given their additional lodging options, that might be the better alternative.

As for McClure? Hmmm... how do you think the fishing would be in February? Again, lodging/camping options have to be considered.

I guess, bottom line, I'm leaning toward San Antonio. Naci's facilities have worked out well for us, but the fishing just hasn't been worth it for us, ANY of the last 3 years I've gone!
