Port O'Connor, Texas - or as we say PO'C




Her's a few pictures of Port O'Connor and of the roads to get there. We always know when someone has never been to PO'C ~ if they say something like "oh yea, I've driven thru Port O'Connor " you know for a fact they've never been there...you don't drive thru PO'C ~ it's one road in.... You take 1289 out of Port Lavaca and then 185 into town. It's a very, very small little fishing community. You'll see here a shot of the front beach pier and one of the Fishing Center. The fishing center is where all the locals sit on the dock to watch the tourists launch and load their boats ~ it tends to be pretty entertaining. My dad loved to sit down here on the weekends and watch the people. Following his death, we had a park bench with his name on it put down on the dock as a rememberance ! It's a pretty slow little town that gets to hopping when fishing season is in full swing and there's a couple of big fishing tournaments that happen and bring in lots of tourists.
