My buddies and I try are trying to make it bi-annual man-trip to Lake Gaston for a little fishing, camping, drinking and guy time. For those of you that may not be familiar with Gaston, it's one of the larger lakes on the east coast and is in both VA and NC. Several years ago i found a campground called Americamps that is right on the water. You can pull your boat right up on your camp site. We've been twice so far and are planning our third trip. Haven't caught too much out there so far, but that's not the whole reason we go.
It's such a blast hanging out with friends, eating like kings, drinking, sitting by a camp fire, no phone and fishing!
here's the site we got last fall
Wake up to this
the houses and scenery are beautiful out there
nathan's!
these next few are from this spring. ended up getting the same site as the fall
need something to drink for a few day
this was something i saw on the internet. they're burgers with cheddar cheese in the middle, wrapped in bacon. amazing.
deer meat wrapped in bacon. we like bacon
we got a good amount of rain when we first got there, and found some holes in the tent. so much so that there was probably about 1/2 a gallon of water in the tent, my bag of clothes got soaked, my sleeping bag was soaked and so was i. i didn't realize it that night because i was pretty drunk so we put up a tarp, which was pretty white trash but fit in well. one of the 'locals' helped us too
i'm not sure what the deal was, but this was one of the only bass we got.
Another part of the campground has 'permanent' sites
hopefully the quality isn't too crappy, they were all taken with my iphone. hoping to get some more pictures at the end or september!
enjoy!
