READ: CCA Texas, FlatsWorthy and numerous committed conservation groups took an important first step in addressing critical concerns with the continued decline of public oyster reefs in a letter to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission.
Shane and Pat discuss the recreational angler's response to the emergency rule to help speckled trout stocks rebound after the devastating February 2021 freeze.
"The data from our Coastal Fisheries biologists clearly shows declines in spotted seatrout populations in multiple Texas bays.
