Have not seen this posted, if so, my apologies. Was told this was near Corpus Christi.

Damn. Looks like we need to start installing chain link fences in the lakes to clean out the gar huh. Lol.

given all the other debris in the fence at that level it seems very plausible.

I know exactly where this is because I used to fish around that area. This was definitely not a flooding incident. The river would have to rise such an incredible amount for the water to get to that fence. This is on the river side of the dam from Lake corpus Christi in Mathis Tx. It sucks knowing people do this.

Do you honestly think these "people" would climb a security fence and stick debris in it? Its obvious the water pushed the debris against the fence and the gar were all swimming against the current when they got stuck.

You don't climb over the fence, you keep walking down and there's a place where you can cross simply by walking. No acrobatic skills needed. Maybe it is possible for the gar to get stuck there with high water but I don't know.
