    Good eats at the pool party

    Snacks, yes. Too much work for me. I would rather crawfish but this year we have rice planted instead. Sent from my VS870 4G using Tapatalk

    Good eats at the pool party

    A few days running traps, just shy of 11 dozen blue crabs. My daughter does not like to be bothered when she is working. Sent from my VS870 4G using Tapatalk

    What's your current pool temp?

    Mine is low to mid 80's open air no solar. Pools been open going on two months now. Good ole Southeast Texas heat. By August September it feels like bath water without the fountain running daily. Sent from my VS870 4G using Tapatalk

    Should I dig?

    It's a gamble. I worked on a house remodel and saw how they did this one. They punched a hole in the deep end so it would not hold water once filled in. Then they broke the deck into chunks just below the cope and all that went in the pool. It was the topped with dirt and sod.
