Comments are Open for Proposed Hunting and Fishing Changes




The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department Commission is considering a number of changes to hunting and fishing regulations in 2020. However, prior to making any decisions, the Commission wants input from constituents in Texas.

Among other things, TPWD is looking at implementing rules to administer an automated process for issuing pronghorn and antlerless mule deer permits, decreasing the daily bag limit for scaup and goose, and changing the hunting seasons for goose and snipe.

TPWD has posted details regarding all of these issues on its website and is accepting public comment on them until 9 a.m. March 25. Constituents may also comment in person at the TPWD headquarters in Austin during the commission meeting at 9 a.m. March 25.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Sep. 24)

SLOW. Water stained; 80 degrees; 7.35 feet below pool. The lake is slowly falling, creating lots of humps and shallow areas, so boaters should use caution. Water temperature is around 90 degrees, and bass are being caught shallow on points and pockets with topwater frogs and senkos, while crankbaits are working on points and drains and jigs or Carolina rigs are producing off ledges and structure. Crappie are starting to stack up on brush and timber, white bass are schooling off points, and catfish have moved into deeper water and creek channels with cut bait working well. Report by Captain Lynn Atkinson, Reel Um N Guide Service.
