I agree with Brian... Ive been catching bait everyday and getting soaked. havent died or got sick yet.. The lake is not closed to fishing so please quit spreading runmors. we already have the media over hyping it like they always do. dont need more mis information out there. caution is needed but panic is just freakn stupid. I get so sick of this [censored]. Really sassyman you care that much or ya just trying to funnel more biz to Hubbard ? gimme a break
Dont swim and dont drink the water... Thats it... No real reports of deaths or even illness. Fishing is very good right now and traffic is low... JD R u and Jeff OK??? http://www.kxii.com/news/headlines/128921868.html

Flat earth senator got sick @ Grand Lake (Oklahoma) back around the 4th of July from the algae. But that fool suppsedly brushes his teeth while bathing in the lake. Little common sense goes a long way. Boat & fish, don't swim or brush your teeth with lake water. By all means do not let it keep you home.

Is there no Texoma guides/business association? They are checking the water here daily. Couple different agencies from what I can tell. Saw one scoop up a few birds yesterday I would think if it was really bad with the heat and water temps we would be seeing fish die offs? Not noticed anything but the lil catfish.

Here is an interesting article from Purdue University http://www.btny.purdue.edu/pubs/APM/blue-green_factsheet.pdf From said article: "Is toxicity common? No! Even though Anabaena, Aphanizomenon, and Microcystis are very common in our waters, it is extremely rare for them to cause toxicity. We do not know why this is. Perhaps toxins are released Anabaena Aphanizomenon Microcystis NEW: 6/03 only from certain very rare strains; perhaps the environmental conditions for toxin production do not often occur. Because we do not know what causes a blue-green to become toxic, it is impossible to predict when toxicity might occur. The safest bet is to prevent livestock from drinking and to restrict swimming activities when water turns pea-soup green." It sounds like we should be measuring for toxins and not the presence of blue green algae

In the first report I read the toxin levels are why they posted the warning. Now what I do not know is was this an isolated area that had the toxins or not but no one knows what causes the the bloom to become toxic so there not anyway to know for sure unless you could test constantly everywhere. So I assume that is why they are saying stay out of the water until the bloom has diminished.
