Keeping Amstad & Falcon Lake Safe for You

Post by USA-RET » Thu Jan 05, 2012 7:51 am

Texas Department of Public Safety put six of these into service along the border. Eight 7.62mm M240B (4 dual mounts) and 900HP :shock: Guess a trolling motor is extra :D

You would need a 300 lb thrust Motorguide with a 84" shaft for that thing :) . Im glad to see our government getting these kind of things out there but also find it sad at the same time that they are needed. I use to talk to my wife about Falcon for a dream trip but after all the crap thats happened there the last couple of years she wont let me go any farther south than Albany.

It is a real shame that the world's scumbags no longer have any fear or respect for this country or its citizens-who would of thought the time would come when you couldnt even fish in this country safely?????

On our side too. Mexican Navy are installing a marine base on Amistad Lake
