We had an interesting event on Friday of last week. Early in the afternoon small minnows moved in and covered the water. This picture is from next to the new pier looking toward the HEB beach. Pelicans and seagulls were eating their fill. By early evening the area between the piers was completely covered with the minnows. You almost had to be there to believe how many there were. Under the lights you could see the minnows trying to swim, but were nearly too crowded to make any headway. By this time the trout were not missing the opportunity also. Ross(206) came to my back door to ask if I had seen what was happening. He had never seen anything like this and was very excited. By the next day the sea of minnows had moved away.
