Ft. Hood

[bambam8d1]

Anyone else here stuck at Ft. Hood? Just got here last week. Anyone have suggestions on some fishin/huntin areas, or just anything to do out here really. Ha.

Never stationed there but did TDY.
Hot. Got heat stroke there.

I was stationed there from 2003 - 2006. Do yourself a favor and skip the local tail. Drive down to Austin with some buddies, get wrecked, make out with a chick way out of your league (there are severely hot chicks in Austin), drive home semi sober, rinse and repeat. Just don't get arrested or try to see what happens when you tell a group of locals that Texas is just a suburb of Mexico. Yes I'm guilty of the latter.

As for hunting? Umm dunno, I was too busy getting vd and and getting tattoos that are spelled wrong! Win!

+1 for Austin, the lake there on Ft. Hood is pretty good for bass and bluegill. I didn't hunt when I was there so I have no clue.

Austin is Awesome. Go to 6th street for sure. Last time i was there it was filled to the brim with tail, Tons of fun roof top bars and 5.00 pitchers of red bull vodka. If you are looking to hunt i would hunt for some strange in Austin.

I just left Hood in OCT. The Outdoor Sportsmen has a lot of options for fishing and hunting areas within the Central TX area. Enjoy http://www.forthoodhunting.com/

6th street in Austin for fun, Belton lake for fishing and waterskiing, there used to be a few skydiving outfits there, and you used to be able to get permits that let you range all over and hunt whatever is in season on the base. The deer I saw there 20+ years ago were the size of dogs but there were a lot of them. Plenty of rabbits. Take the big trip down to the gulf some time. There is actually a lot to do around there.
