Last time I saw someone use one of these was in Tulum, Mexico. Shot while looking for Trinity river overflow shots in Dallas.

Didn't know cats live in the water!

They use a similar but different throw net in Hawaii.

The Trinity is really flowing with all the rain we've had. I live on Lake Livingston and it is as high as I have ever seen it. The flood gates are all open.

Here's a couple of shots of the Trinity River Dam at Lake Livingston. There is a lot of bird activity but not too many fishermen due to the raging currents

Love your shot of the Dam! Torrential rains for 4 hours between 1 & 5 AM last night... heavy rain for several hours before and after...... Can't remember the last time I saw it this bad & I've lived here for over 60 years.....

Wow, looks like more for us today as well. I wonder when it will end? I want to go fishing and the water is off color so the fish are not hitting.
