AUSTIN – The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has issued a temporary closure to saltwater fishing along parts of the Texas coast to protect resources during freezing weather conditions. The closure takes effect at noon Wednesday, Feb. 2, 2011 and extends through noon on Saturday, Feb. 5, 2011.
In addition to killing game fish in shallow bay waters, a hard freeze can also cause surviving fish to congregate in a few deeper areas where they become sluggish and prone to capture. Those are the areas the department has temporarily closed.
"The high mortality that a freeze can cause may deplete fish stocks for years," said Robin Riechers, director of TPWD’s Coastal Fisheries Division. "Protection of the surviving fish during the few days when they are especially vulnerable to capture would likely shorten the time period for overall recovery of coastal species, especially spotted sea trout."

Big island South of the Civic Center popped up today. I have seen some of it out of the water before, but not this big.

Where abouts???? Near the new boat dock? I thought most of that water was fairly deep. I have caught some good trout, just east of where the new boat dock is located.

Over by the "turnaround" I have seen "land" when there is a good north wind blowing during the winter. I have also seen boats run right over this shallow area on low tide.......bet they would have hid bottom if they slowed down.

SE of the new docks. Sticking out the water about 3 ft high. Between the new docks and the drainage outlet on Shell Beach Dr.
