I would have to agree. It's at least the clearest lake I,ve ever seen.

Clear does not equate to pollution free. I always heard the Rio was very polluted, raw sewage dumping and other activities.

Well Elephant Butte upstream on the Rio Grande has plenty of mercury and such, I doubt it gets cleaner the longer it flows, but EB is pretty clear as lakes go.

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

Alan Henry has the clearest water I've ever seen on a lake.
He is truly a sick individual.

Well Elephant Butte upstream on the Rio Grande has plenty of mercury and such, I doubt it gets cleaner the longer it flows, but EB is pretty clear as lakes go. Further south you go on the Rio Grande there are not only Mercury, but a lot of Fords and Chevies, and Toyota's and a bunch of dead bodies, plus all the illegal chemicals and waste. Other than that, it's not bad!
Just one more cast!

That is easy, Landa lake in New Braunfels. I would say any spring fed lake at that.

Spring Lake in San Marcos!
I know...its small, and you can't fish it, but it's a lake, and it's in Texas...and it's probably cleaner than what comes out of my faucet at home.
