Anglers push for immediate cut off to divert water
The San Antonio Anglers Club urged WPA to start a project instantly to divert Guadalupe river watershed water into Medina river watershed to fill Medina Lake and reduce flood danger. Riley Wyatt heads a committee to present the resolution to WPA HQ at Medina fish hatchery picnic near Natolia. The plan, debated after a split over an intra coastal waterway, would cut the divide near Bandera and take about a year to complete.
