They delayed the inspection until today, Friday, and the flows will be reduced to zero. So I should have fished on Thursday !!!!

Woo Hoooo !!!……
I can’t wait. I’ll see you there !!!

They shut off the flows completely. The upper river will show the effects almost right away. The lower river will slow down and slowly drop (and also slowly rise back to normal levels when flows resume). Usually the fish get lockjaw while the river drops with no current. Even today with the clouds helping it’s going to be slow. It’s probably best for yourself and the fish to leave them alone until they start releasing the flows again. Another thing is that some years the inspections are not completed in a single day, so watch for following announcements that flows will again be turned off for another day. I was going today but canceled those plans because of the zero flows. Tomorrow looks good too, even with some severe weather forecast, so I’ll be watching for another possible announcement tonight before I decide to fish again.

Don’t over look CVC or Lower Rio.

I still can’t figure this out…. Where are the instructions for inserting a picture?

Good Luck ! I’ll be taking our cat to the vet for a broken tooth.

The Trout should be available at every LAP site except maybe RRC. We stocked every site directly (and some in between) except Lower Rio, which is right next to Bezdek’s and RRC which I have never seen stocked. RRC will have fish move downstream into that area as the season progresses. Watch your water temps in the lower sites on days like today! If it gets close to 70 move upstream into cooler waters.

Sorry, but you’ve got to wait. The reason is the parking tag is what is used by the lease site owners to identify vehicles that are legally on their property. You can still fish at the commercial sites paying for access till you receive a new packet.
Jimbo
RRC is not stocked, but some fish usually find their way down there.

Man, people seem to be loosing just about everything they can carry lately. Thanks for trying to get them back to their rightful owners ! You might want to change the name of this topic to Lost and Found…..

Turns out my crew actually had the load with the bigger fish. I didn’t witness everything going in the water as I was playing with the walkie talkies on the road a lot but I did see some fish to about 22″ and 5lbs. I bet you the river is covered up today! I going to Austin to see some old friends and watch the Cowboys beat the Patriots. I should get down to the river this coming week. Hope to see some old friends there too! Good Luck everyone and thanks for all the help!

I received a short text from Dan today. They were able to shock up 8 of these small wild Rainbows. Out of those 8 they were able to get 5 in the net. Of those he kept 3 for further analysis. This is very good news for the future of the fishery. It demonstrates that under the right conditions, higher sustained flows and cold water, we can have significant reproduction resulting in fish reaching a catchable size. I can’t guarantee that this will lead to further agreements with GBRA, but it certainly adds another benefit to consider when talking about current flow regimes. Thanks again for everyone’s help. Now let’s get the stocking done this Saturday and have some fun with our fishery.

Talk to the folks in the store and they will point you in the right direction.
Jimbo
Thanks everyone ! This info will be passed along to Mukhtar Farooqi for his team to use this week.
