Greg continues to get his daily limit of trout at Aransas Pass. These are from today.

Pete(710) got this limit of Rainbow Trout last weekend. About 5,000 of these were stocked in Pecan Valley Lake in San Antonio. My house there is in the Pecan Valley Subdivision and this is our subdivision lake. The sad part is this is a catch them or they die situation. When the water warms with summer temperatures, the trout go belly up.

The best that I could do was this sixteen inch trout on Sunday evening before the front blew in. Notice the trout had very little girth as is the case with most male trout. It was so late and he was so skinny I just released him. I was trying out a new lure George was giving out. It has a double 'C' tail and causes quite a flutter when reeled in. I had witnessed Joe(603) catch two from our marina a few days ago using this lure while my reliable DOA did nothing. For some reason, late in the evening, the most reliable fishing light on the complex is the one in the channel by the cabana at 308. Most every evening I can catch at least one there, but never more than two. Strangely, the new bright light shining in the channel just a 200 feet east of this light has never produced even a single bite for me. That just doesn't make sense.
Kevin will be here on Friday morning to begin work on hard wiring the WiFi for our 400 building. He will then proceed to do all the other buildings. He has a new phone number that is easy to remember 790-wifi.
TWC has completed all our paper work except putting our billing information into their system. When that is done we are good to go with the new HD boxes.
Many have asked why we are down on the number of winter Texans this year. I have no idea except maybe the price increases were to blame. I don't know the numerical difference from last year, but our water bill for January went from $3,217 last year to $1,936 this year. Our inside water bill most closely correlates with occupancy. We finished January $4,000 below budgeted costs. We will have to see what happens with February. That will include foundation work and the massive late night plumbing problem. That bill was not as bad as I had feared. It came to $1,861.
