I haven't heard of any plans for Braunig. If it remains more or less like it is, you & they rest of S.A. will be there..in line.

Man I just heard the oddest thing they are going to make Calaveras into and RV park and it is members only they are not going to allow any guided fishing unless they pay the company huge dollar amounts for there guide tag. Also one pole per person no beer anywhere on the lake and will be fined if you have it. Trolling will only be allowed 2 days a week..





Now that everyone is stirred up I made up all above!!!!!!!!!!

Here are more complaints about Thousand Trails Resorts.

Looks to me like CPS didn't do their homework

I was at calaveras yesterday (Sunday) boy was it foggy. The lady on the gate could not give me any information on what is going to happen. I guess we will just have to wait and see what the new group does. It will be a shame if they make it private and jack up the prices. I guess we will find out soon.

I was at calaveras this morning (Monday) & it was so foggy that we had to navigate the lake with a compass. Fishing was slow, but the lake was absolutely beautiful after the fog lifted..calm..warm. Had a great time. As I looked around, there were a lot of families there fishing from the bank..kids running around, some catching bait, just having fun. I thought to myself, bet they have no idea that this may all end in just a few days.

This thought came to mind..CPS is a publicly owned utility. In other words, owned by the public. Calaveras & Braunig are then in reality, owned by the public. I wonder if CPS can legally lease the recreation facilities to a privately owned company & deny the public access to the lakes to which they own. Something to think about..

It will take a lawsuit to find out. I happen to know the right lawyer for it. He takes on Homeowners associations and wins.

Went to Calaveras today with my son. We saw three people from the new company walking around with clipboards, taking notes, and talking about repairs (this was down by the restrooms near the dam). I asked them what the plans were for the park and they said the company is "tight lipped about it" and they were just sent to look things over. I can't believe they wouldn't know this close to the takeover date.

The sad thing is, we caught nothing before we had to leave. Bad possible last day at the lake.

So if they go private will the Dept of Wildlife continue to stock the lake? I would hope not!

If anyone is going to the lake on Tuesday they need to post so we can all find sout what changes are made. I can't go this week but am planning on going next week if it is still open to the public.
I agree if they make it private then we need to make sure were not paying to stock it.

If it became private and the TPWD continued to stock...I would hope the fishing community would raise h*ll until the stocking stopped.

I have the feeling that the ramps will remain open to the public, but with an increase launch fee. The rest of the park would be for TT camping facilities. All would be under the TT contract. This is strictly my guess, but this would make a lot of dollar sense. Time will tell...
