Just found this video of last Tuesday’s waterspout. Tornadoes aren’t so unusual around here, but these water-twisters are. Lake Conway is about five feet deep most of the time, so I figure up close this was probably a Moses-parting-the-Red-Sea moment.
So did it sling crappie and catfish for the whole three or so minutes, or did the waterspout lift it all aloft then set the whole business politely back down? The news said no one was injured and no damage reported, but surely someone driving down I-40 took a game fish in the windshield.
There has to be at least one good story out there.
we live on Lake Conway and totally missed the whole thing. Wah!
Oh, Robin. I was counting on you for for a great fish-slinging story – flying water moccasins, gar in the driveway – that sort of thing. There was so much potential there.
I guess I'll have to go hang out at the bait shop and ask around.
