I got an Email today from the Texas Farm Bureau. In it was an article that a Texas Federal Court ruled that the EPA and Corps of Engineers does NOT have control over private waters.
That’s you, me, and all of our private waters.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

That is great news Dave. My line in the sand would be the gov trying to take over my pond!
Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.

Glad that nightmare is over - at least for now.
4 acre pond 32 ft deep within East Texas (Livingston) timber ranch. Filled (to the top of an almost finished dam) by Hurricane Harvey 9/17. Stocked with FHM, CNBG, RES 10/17. Added 35lbs RSC 3/18. 400 N LMB fingerlings 6/18

Let's hear it for Texas!!!! (or 'Tejas' for those of you so inclined!)
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

I didn't mind the navigable waters standard back when it meant, you know, actual navigable waters. Still, this is great news.

Eric, don’t know. I get a daily email from TFB, read it and then delete. I don’t recall a citing.
