“Impact of Freeze Event on Gulf Coast Fisheries”
Members of the Gulf Coast Council have been invited to attend the Texas Fly Fishers (Houston club) Zoom monthly meeting on April 27th. Two biologists from the Texas Parks and Wildlife “Kills and Spills” team will be making a presentation which will discuss the state of the Gulf Coast fishery in light of the record-setting weather event that occured in February.

The week of February 10th saw an extremely cold air mass plunge down to the Gulf of Mexico, with high temperatures along the coast from Matagorda eastward to Destin below or just above freezing. Frozen precipitation even fell south of I-10 from Houston eastward to Gulfport. Lake Charles reached a low temperature of 14 degrees and experienced some minor fish kills of redfish and speckled trout.
