TPW TV–Wardens & White Bass
Monday, June 7th, 2010This is Passport to Texas
Coastal game wardens and white bass fishing: two segments you’ll find in June on the Texas Parks and Wildlife PBS TV series. Series Producer, Don Cash.
One of the stories we follow in June on our television show is about game wardens, and what they do for a living. Since most of Texas is inland, a lot of people probably don’t realize we have game wardens along the coast, and they have a completely different job than game wardens, say, maybe in the Panhandle.
Good morning! State Game Warden. How are you doing this morning? I wonder if we can take a look at your fish here. It’s okay? Thank you, sir.
And while we’re on the topic of water in June, we’re also going to look at the spring white bass run in Texas. By June you’ve already missed the spring white bass run, but this will help you get ready for next year. And one of the places we go fishing is up in East Texas on the Sabine River.
Got one! Reel it in. Okay, you got another one. Hold your rod down. There. Right there. Oh, that’s a good one.
No good fishing trip would be complete without cooking and eating those fish at the end, and we’ve got a few tips on that as well.
I mix about half corn meal and half flour, put a little Cajun seasoning on there…shake that off in there. Takes about eight to ten minutes.
The television show goes all over the state, and I hope you get a chance to catch it.
Thanks, Don.
