Brownsville Tony Loc: Brownsville - Laguna Madre

Okay, I found a couple of pics. Looks to me like they'll have to clear out all the old timbers.

El Rod Loc: Port A

Wow, spectacular flames! Great photos. Looks like the Herons are nesting on the old bar!

I remember as if it were yesterday, watching the same thing in Monterey when I was a kid. One after another, the original canneries burned down. The news said each case was arson. Most believed it was to make room for tourist structures. I used to fish off the back of those old canneries. Point of interest. I went back to Monterey about 20 years later. When trying to park in a typical older nova," (I had my bearded best friend, my half Japanese girlfriend and Filipino neighbor in the car. We were all collage students) a man in a like new Mercedes zipped in cutting me off. When the three pieced suited man got out of His car, I said that was really rude. He responded most rudely in a very strong East Europe accent "go back where you came from, we don't need rift raft like you around here". He then walked into his high end antique store, in the location of a former cannery. There is more to the story, but this is not the place. The real bummer is some of my favorite fishing places burned down. I hope lots of fish take up residence on these remaining pilings in the photo.

They were in there before the fire so I'm sure they will be back. But there are some real tricky currents in there and I can imagine one of those burnt pilings skewering my boat. I haven't heard a word of suspected arson but it is strange how those things seem to happen. So much of SPI is shoreline for country that is just desolate brush ranchland with no roads or access so development is squeezed into the bottom 20 miles. Someday that shoreline will become so valuable that King Ranch and some of those bigger outfits will have to develop it. Who knows, we may have high rise buildings all the way from Brownsville to Corpus Christie one day. Unfortunately, some will end up owned by perfect a/h's who think their investment dollars are what make us great.

Whoa. Hope the owners had some type of insurance .

Weekend Hooker Loc: Clyde, Texas

Is that the ferris wheel pier?

Never been a Ferris Wheel there that I'm aware of, Hooker. It was a bar/restaurant/hang out kind of place. At certain times of the year the fishing, especially for sheepshead, was good and trout always around there.
