I forgot about this thread, lol. The area I will be fishing is near the mouth of the san bernard river which is just west of freeport. This area is a unknown gem along the texas coast. The fishing is great, it seems the worse the weather the better it is. Last year I fished sat-monday the week of new years. Friday night a front came through, saturday north winds pushed water out of all the bays. I caught 8 keepers(limit is 3 per person), sunday I caught 8 keepers, and monday morning I fished for about two hours and caught 6 keepers. Biggest was 27 1/2". Do some googling.
mic-I calculated fuel around $275. Our turbo diesel liberty gets around 19mpg towing a boat. The room was $50 or so. The wife informed me that we arent sharing a room with anyone lol. 4-5 people can stay in a room. I am either taking a 16x48 jon boat converted to a bass boat or I am talking my riverboat. both would fish great down there.
