Early voting underway for Nov. 3 election




Early voting runs through Friday, Oct. 30, for the Nov. 3 Election Day at county polling sites.

The highlights on the local ballot are a $10 million Mabank Indpendent School District bond proposal, an alcohol election in Trinidad and seven statewide proposals.

Mabank ISD officials say the restructuring of current bonds would allow the sale of new bonds without raising school property taxes.

The new bond income would be used to improve district security, add classrooms and improved parking and other updates to district facilities.

Trinidad voters will consider a measure to approve the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-premise consumption.

The statewide propositions are measures to change the homestead exemption for school district property taxes from $15,000 to $25,000; exempt property from taxation for surving spouses of totally disabled veterans; repeal the requirement that certain executive officials reside in Austin while in office; allow professional sports team charitable foundations to conduct raffles; authorize counties with 7,500 people or less to perform private road construction and maintenance; provide for a right to fund, fish and harvest wildlife and allocate a portion of sales and use tax revenue to the state highway fund through 2032.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 20)

EXCELLENT. Stained; 62 degrees; 0.08 feet below pool. The hybrid striped bass and white bass have recently been staging in the creek arms to spawn these past few weeks. Fish are now coming back into the main lake in droves to recover from the spawn and are on a feeding frenzy. Look for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. The bite will continue to get even better in these areas as the shad spawn will start to take place in the next 2-3 weeks across the lake. Retrieve shiny slabs or spinnerbaits off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 17-26 feet of water. The crappie bite has picked up in the creeks and inlets in 2-10 feet of water throughout the entire lake. We are now seeing the crappie migrate back into the main lake. Look for them under bridge pylons or under docks where the depths are between 4-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service.
