http://www.kvue.com/news/top/stories/102606kvueFish-cb.783068ee.html 01:57 PM CDT on Thursday, October 26, 2006 Associated Press State health officials Thursday are advising people not to eat two kinds of fish from Canyon Lake due to concerns about mercury. The Department of State Health Services says people should limit their consumption of striped bass and longnose gar from Canyon Lake. Lab tests found elevated levels of mercury in those two types of fish. No other fish are part of the warning. Experts also say there's no risk mercury poisoning from fishing, skiing or swimming in Canyon Lake, which is about 12 miles northwest of New Braunfels.
If you thought healthcare was expensive, ... wait until it's free

I'm 5 minutes away from the boat ramp and I STILL haven't been out there in awhile. I need to rewire my new depthfinder. I'll hit it soon.

Gar are delicacies in some parts of the country, and some parts of Texas. Plenty of meat on them too, just gotta get to the backstrap.
