Originally posted by JayInGrapevine: Click here The point is pretty clear. Even though the information has been removed from their page, TPWD continued to stock Squaw Creek (TXU Contract Lake #1) until very recently. If they want to continue to maintain and stock this body of water, then it should be open to the tax payers who fund said stockings. If not, then stockings need to come to an immediate and permanent halt and those fish need to be removed from the lake through shockings and restocked in other near-by lakes accessible to the tax payers funding them. I could not agree with you more. Is it possible to agree with someone 1000% ??

SQUAW CREEK IS A PRIVATE LAKE. There is no way to force TXU to reopen it any more than the TPWD could force me to open my private pond to the public.
The issue with the fish stocking, IMO, is moot. The most that could ever happen would be some judge would require TXU to pay for the fish. It would not be a lot of money anyway, and we would all contribute the next time we turned a light on. So in effect we would pay for the fish twice. In any case, using prior fish stockings as a lever will not succeed in forcing TXU to let us fish there again. In my opinion, following this line of thought is the same as saying, "yeah....they're reaming us, but there's nothing we can do about it, so we may as well let 'em do it."

I cannot believe the naysayers in here, geez it's sounding like the OT section  Jay is proposing a reasonable, time tested course of action so what if the odds are against it succeeding, what in the world is wrong with trying? You have absolutely nothing to loose by signing, and everything to gain. By sitting back and tossing negative comments all one does is contribute to the problem rather than the solution. (Not to mention making oneself look like a real b*tthead. :p ) Way to take the initiative and trying to do something constructive on the TFF Jay, that kind of moxy will take you far!
