    Big Mouth Photograph by Andrew Owen, American Festivals Project Once a year, Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, is home to the Okie Noodling Tournament, a 24- hour race to bring in the biggest catch using an unusual—and sometimes dangerous— technique. Unlike traditional anglers, noodlers forego the rod and reel and take on massive catfish with their hands, pulling them from holes by their toothless mouths.The American Festivals Project was on the scene to capture the action in 2009. Champion “noodler,” or handfisher, Lee McFarlin holds a giant flathead catfish he caught using his hand as bait. “Everybody tells me I’m the guru of noodling,” McFarlin says. “Until you can control that fish, he will whip your butt every time.” McFarlin chalks up his wins to practice and technique. From May until July, McFarlin noodles two or three times during the week and all weekend, routinely snagging his limit of three fish. Handfishers, or “noodlers,” Cristi Snyder, Fostana Jenkins, and Betsy Dougherty search for flathead catfish, a species found in waterways in the South and Midwest U.S. Handfishers probe and prod for the holes where the fish lurk during breeding season. They then dive down and reach into the underwater lairs, hoping that a monster “cat” will take the proffered bai the noodler’s hand. Handfisher, or “nooder,” Ann Tittle holds a giant flathead catfish. To avoid drowning or other accidents, noodlers recommend fishing in teams.

Deloney November, 1989 Comprehensive Planning Branch, Parks Division Texas Parks and Wildlife Department 4200 Smith School Road, Austin, Texas 78744 (512) 389-4900 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Conducting a mail survey requires accuracy and timeliness in every single task. Each individualized survey had to be accounted for, both going out and coming back. Each mailing had to meet a strict deadline. The authors are indebted to all the people who worked on this project. The staff of the Comprehensive Planning Branch, Parks Division, deserve special thanks. This dedicated crew signed letters, mailed, remailed, coded, and entered the data of a twenty-page questionnaire that was sent to over twenty-five thousand Texans with over twelve thousand returned completed. Many other Parks Division staff outside the branch volunteered to assist with stuffing and labeling thousands of envelopes as deadlines drew near. We thank the staff of the Information Services Section for their cooperation in providing individualized letters and labels for survey mailings. We also appreciate the dedication of the staff in the mailroom for processing up­ wards of seventy-five thousand pieces of mail. Lastly, we thank the staff in the print shop for their courteous assistance in reproducing the various documents. Although the above are gratefully acknowledged, they are absolved from any responsibility for any errors or omissions that may have occurred. ii TEXANS OUTDOORS: AN ANALYSIS OF 1985 PARTICIPATION IN OUTDOOR RECREATION ACTIVITIES TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction ...........................................................................................................

The fabled rut is the one time hunters can be assured the wily buck of their dreams will abandon caution for the pursuit of a doe in estrus.

Sanchez, and Timothy B. Griffith Prepared for South Texas Electric Cooperative, Inc. Principal Investigators: Brandon S. Young and Timothy B. Griffith August 2014 ABSTRACT Between 2012 and 2014, archeologists from Blanton & Associates, Inc., at the request of the South Texas Electric Cooperative, Inc., conducted an intensive, non-collection, archeological survey of the proposed Red Gate Power Plant project in Hidalgo and Starr Counties, Texas. The area of potential effect (APE) comprised the 336-acre power plant site property in Hidalgo County, and an 891-acre, 24.5-mile proposed natural gas pipeline right-of-way in Hidalgo and Starr Counties. Investigation of the power plant APE discovered one mid to late twentieth century historic residential complex (41HG238), with an associated corral and minor structures. Based on the recent date of construction, lack of integrity, and paucity of buried material, site 41HG238 is recommended as ineligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NHRP). Investigation of the pipeline APE did not discover any additional archeological resources. In summary, no NHRP-eligible sites were discovered, no artifacts were collected, and curation was unnecessary.
