Has CDC had even one confirmed case of illness attributed to blue green algae? I can not find any evidence that one animal or human has been infected or affected from contact with water in or from lake Texoma.
Take a fish boating today!

If your going to fish then no. If you are going to jet ski, wake board or salomon ski then yes LOL  Just kidding.  I heard of one case that some one got a rash and was itching from swimming at butterfly cove all day . NOT FISHING though but who knows if it was from the blue green algee.

I got really sick from wakeboarding last week in lewisville. Not kinda sick, Really Really sick. All started with what felt like a serious sinus infection the same evening i was riding.
Not worth it I promise.
It's all about how you hold your tongue.

And do you have a doctors report verifying that you got sick from algae??? If not then don't infer what is not substantiated. Too much hear say and not enough facts.

checkout sixoldgeezers.com texoma forum. They have several links to deaths of dogs dying and others from swimming in another Ok. lake from the same algae.

Why don't you take a long swim at Texoma Steve. Then you will know for sure.

Give the man a break. Internet forums have become one of the last venues for demonstrations of chest-thumping manhood.
