Ok, since the water is down in Merideth and Greenbelt, wouldn't that mean the fish are more concentrated and fishing would be better? Or does it mean the water is less and as population per cubic foot of water has to be maintained so the fishing is still sucky? Should I fork out the dough on a license or just go to United for some cod?  |

The fish should be more concentrated because of the falling lake levels. The fishing report coming from Greenbelt has been good lately and the water temp has been in the low 60's so the activity should pick up.

Git,
rising water traditionally makes for good fishing on slopes and banks, and falling water makes for good fishing on steep points and deep structure. Falling water levels in springtime means that warmer water that covers structure that was formerly deep but now shallower will attract a lot of fish.
As to fishing licenses, read the outdoor manual carefully and be aware that a fishing license is no longer license to fish; freshwater and salthingyer endorsements as well as specie-specific stamps are now required.
In the near future, look for a bass stamp, a catfish stamp, a crappie stamp, and a walleye stamp that must be purchased separately before fishing in any lake containing those species.
TPWD is trying it's best to convince me that poaching is the way to go....

Edited repeatedly be AmaTx in order to remove the absolutely retarded word "salthingyer" that this idiotic anti-free-speech program keeps substituting for salthingyer. (You know, the kind of water one might find in the ocean that is loaded with salt that is spelled
s a l t w a t e r)
This board's programmer must have some sort of s a l t w a t e r phobia.
Oh, I think I've guessed it: the program thinks I'm trying to post the words sal thingy er
LOL! this is hilarious! salt wat er. saltwa ter. sa lthingyer. salt water. salthingyer.
T-wat are you idiots so uptight about?
And exactly T W A T is a "thingy", anyway?
I predict AmaTx shall soon be banned for refusing to call s-a-l-t-w-a-t-e-r "salthingyer" because it has the letters T, W, A, and T in it.

Here is a link to the fishing reports for Texas. This seems to be the best site on the net for this info. www.txfishing.com |

It's not that complicated for recreational fishing. For texas residents a fishing license with and endorsement (stamp) for fresh water fishing is $28.00 . A fishing license with and endorsement (stamp) for salt water fishing is $33.00 and a combination license for both fresh and salt water fishing is $38.00 Here are the restrictions on number and sizes of various types of fresh water fish.
