Young Fredericksburg, Texas, 2008 Introduction Despite the dry, desert images many outsiders often associate with Texas, the state actually has a wealth of water. By the numbers, Texas has: •Almost 2 million acres of impounded water¬¬––more than any other state. •More than 80,000 miles of flowing water. •More than 3,300 miles of shoreline (including barrier islands). •2.1 million acres of bay fishing. •More private lakes and ponds than any other state. Within this immense watery environment are a host of freshwater and saltwater species unmatched by any other state. Both native and introduced species lure anglers, flyfishers, bowfishers and spearfishers throughout the year in search of food, sport and relaxation. In fact, so many people take to the waters that Texas ranks among the Top 10 in numbers of anglers from outside the state. According to an American Sportfishing Association report, nearly 3 million people fished Texas waters for more than 41 million total fishing days in 2006 (the latest year for available data). The economic impact is staggering. More than $3 billion in retail sales was generated by people fishing in Texas in 2006. This number is doubled to more than $6 billion when factoring in the ripple effect of gas, lodging, etc. Fishing is so popular because it’s fun, relatively inexpensive, relaxing and can put food on the table and in the freezer. Another reason for its popularity has to do with access. The state’s abundance of water ensures that good fishing is close to almost everyone, regardless of where they live. Information on these waters can be found in Chapter 2, which deals with freshwater rivers and lakes, and Chapter 4, which covers saltwater. Profiles of the species that inhabit the state’s waters can be found in Chapters 3 and 5. Other chapters include information on clothing and equipment, private lakes and resorts and organizations formed to promote and protect fishing. Scattered throughout the book are sidebars on history, products, myths and legends. In short, this book is for anyone interested in fishing in Texas, whether a pro or a beginner. The information was compiled from a variety of sources including archives, print and electronic media, interviews with fishing guides, lodge and marina owners, other writers, scientists, naturalists, and state and federal employees. The compilation of facts and opinions provides readers with an overview of fishing in Texas—past and present. This book is by no means the final word on fishing in Texas, nor should it be construed as such. It has always been and remains up to the individual to check with the correct governing bodies for changes in the law regarding fishing and boating. Fish on. Chapter 1 Notes on Means and Methods There are four basic methods of obtaining fish in Texas: traditional rod and reel, fly fishing, bowfishing and spearfishing. Of these, fishing with some type of rod, be it traditional or fly, is by far the most popular. However, bow fishing and spear fishing continue to grow in popularity. Regardless of the method, all rely on the same basic principal for success; fish must be found before they can be caught or killed. This statement may seem elementary, but as anyone who’s ever fished can explain, this is often easier said than done. A number of factors contribute to where fish live, how they act and how they feed. Some of the more important of these include water clarity, abundance of food and cover, diet, water temperature, barometric pressure and the phase of the moon. Other influencing factors include time of year and the time of spawn. Information on most of these factors can be found in the chapters on freshwater and saltwater fish. In terms of barometric pressure, most fish are active when there are severe dips and rises in pressure such as before and after a storm. The moon influences fishing in that its gravitational pull effects tides and to a lesser degree, barometric pressure. The most successful fishermen are the ones who keep track of all of these factors. The easiest way to do so is with a fishing journal or fishing log. Logs can be as detailed as you like but the following basics should be covered: •Name of the body of water. •Time of year and date. •Weather conditions including temperature, wind direction, sky description (cloudy, clear, etc.) and barometer reading.

OLDFIELD1,2, ABHINAV KAKUTURU1, WILLIAM I. LUTTERSCHMIDT2, O. TOM LORENZ3, ADAM E. COHEN4, AND DEAN A. HENDRICKSON4 ABSTRACT The Rio Grande Cichlid, Herichthys cyanoguttatus, is native to the drainages of the Gulf Coast of northern Mexico and southern Texas and has been introduced at several sites in the US. Previous observations have suggested that non-native populations in Louisiana that are currently recognized as H. cyanoguttatus resemble another species, the Lowland Cichlid, H. carpintis. Traditional morphological and genetic techniques have been insufficient to differentiate these species, but H. carpintis has been reported to differ fromH. cyanoguttatus in color pattern, so we turned to novel electronic photo archives to determine the identity of the species introduced in Louisiana. First, we used the public databases Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database and Fishes of Texas to infer the historical distributions of these species in the US.

But for many hunters, a successful 2005 duck season will depend on hunting near water. The best hunting is concentrated in a few areas, and is sparse elsewhere — even in areas where the ducks usually congregate. Currently, the normal factors that contribute to waterfowl migration aren’t in place. Hot, dry weather has caused many stock tanks and seasonal wetlands to dry up, and the usual cold fronts push- ing southward across the Great Plains are late this year. To sum up the duck hunting outlook statewide: where you find water, there’ll likely be good con- centrations of ducks.

  • What Is Water Reuse?
    HISTORY OF WATER REUSE IN TEXAS FEBRUARY 2011 TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD MISSION STATEMENT The Texas Water Development Board’s (TWDB) mission is to provide leadership, planning, financial assistance, information, and education for the conservation and responsible development of water for Texas. Our mission is a vital part of Texas’ overall vision and its mission and goals which relate to maintaining the viability of the state’s natural resources, health and economic development. To accomplish its goals of planning for the state’s water resources and for providing affordable water and wastewater services, the TWDB provides water planning, data collection and dissemination, financial assistance and technical assistance services to the citizens of Texas. The tremendous population growth that the state has and will continue to experience, and the continual threat of severe drought, only intensify the need for the TWDB to accomplish its goals in an effective and efficient manner. PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT The TWDB, through the project “Advancing Water Reuse in Texas,” has produced a series of documents to address public awareness of water reuse in Texas. This document, History of Water Reuse in Texas, is developed to provide the chronology and historical achievements of water reuse programs in the state.

    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).
