Since my sister's accident the middle of July, have not been fishng until today.....went to Calaveras lake, and had a very uneventful, but relaxing day....was much appreciated...needed it more than I knew....haven't been fishing since just before Easter, so it was a goooood day ! Hope all have apleasant and killer week end !

How often do you fish at cali ?

Well, since my sister and I share a vehicle...right now, not that often.....but spent the last 2 afternoons fishing at Calaveras, and boy did I appreciate the decompression time...until I noticed the "coal powered" flume...local residents are not too happy.....will not go back to either Calaveras or Braunig again...did not know until recently, they were coal powered....rather go to coast,....such a shame and such a waste of our ecology.....gotta leave something for the next generations other than pollution and oil dependency.....

Being from the east coast originally, I am still flabbergasted that Texas, as much a it is one of the major "sunshine" states has lagged, and I do mean lagged, behind the times with solar power....God knows there's more solar here, than most of the north, and what are we, collectively, doing with it ??? NOT ENOUGH!!!! The government, and the people have got to realize, solar can and will be cheap, and a hell of a lot cleaner that oil...and yes, love to drive...so...it is a challenge to all of us

And, where will we go from here???? Only the good lord knows, and hopefully he/she keeps a sense of humor......

Oh yes about those coal powered things discussion has been going around about closing those lakes but not sure how long that will happen . What do you fish for cats ?

I fish for reds at the Crappie wall and between the wall and the dam.

Tight lines,

just so you know the texas coast is littered with coal plants as well

you apparently haven't driven west

Here's the power plant at Calaveras Lake (it's not THAT dirty).
Also, it's loaded with 2 and 3 lbs channel catfish. We like to eat them, so my wife catches them now. And, I plan to go after more of these double-digit redfish:
