Bird Island & Amber Forest around the 147 Bridge - Rayburn 2022 Aerial Mapping at Low Water Pt 2

Ойын-сауық

Today we continue our aerial mapping videos with a review of the Bird Island area around the 147 bridge, Amber Forest and how to get around the area. this is part 2 of the series. This is all shot with Rayburn right at 5.75 feet below full pool.
We spent a day with Jason of JR Photographs at of Nacogdoches Texas mapping Sam Rayburn Lake from Harvey Creek to the 103 Bridge up the Angelina River arm. There will be multiple videos from this series, go to my Playlist area and you will find them all once they are loaded, will take several weeks to get them all edited and loaded. There are also two additional mapping series in my playlist of other areas of the lake including the south end, Veach, Ayish arm, Black Forest and the Easely flats. Those videos also give good ramps and camping areas, as well as other amenities around the lake.

    Planning my first trip to Sam Rayburn in October. These videos have been extremely informative. Already feel better about staying safe and finding some good fishing spots. Much appreciated.

    This area always makes me nervous. I idle everywhere around there because I'm so unfamiliar with it. I stayed at Jackson Hill this past spring and I was just nervous driving the whole time. I made a decision that weekend. I will never fish anywhere north of Caney creek again. My comfort zone is Caney, Coleman, Norris, 5 fingers, farmers, buck bay, pigeon roost and tiger creek areas. If I can't find fish in those areas I'll just go home lol or go to toledo

    Great video, thanks for trying to keep us safe. Have always wondered why the SR boat lanes are not marked with white buoy cans like they are on TB. Maybe you can ask next time you interview TPW? Red/Green buoy lanes on the LA side of TB are wonderful, like driving a car on the interstate.

    Ken, just thought I'd let you know I fished an ABA tournament yesterday and ran this route through bird island with no issues. It was funny because I stopped next to the rocks before taking off. There was a boat not too far from me. Looks like they were just watching me to see if I'd make it or not 😄😄😄

    Ken, always like your videos. I've been to Sam Rayburn, never on the water, but it's definitely on my bucket list to fish one day. Was a little confused when you said "north" east side of 147. So double checked on Google earth and looks like the "south" east side of 147. Not a big deal but wanted to point that out. I have lots of Waypoints on Rayburn to fish if I ever make it down there. I'm a Guntersville/ Tennessee River (Huntsville Alabama) fishermen mainly.

    Hey Ken, can you tell us about the drone your buddy is using? You list all your other video stuff. I’ve been thinking about getting a drone with follow me and return capabilities but At this point I know nothing. Throw me a bone. Thanks.
