Radioactive fish near nuclear plant said ordinary but radioactive worms are out of ordinary

Buddy Toepfer outdoor reporter for “The Redneck Riviera Free Press”

Bay City, TX. - When a fish taken from the Matagorda River recently tested positive for radioactive strontium-90, suspicion focused on the nearby South Texas nuclear plant as the likely source.

Operators of the troubled 38-year-old nuclear plant, where work is under way to clean up leaking radioactive tritium, revealed this month that it also found soil contaminated with strontium-90.

Three days later, officials said a fish caught four miles upstream from the reactor in February had tested positive for strontium-90 in its bones. State officials say they don't believe the contamination came from South Texas Nuke.

I did some digging near the plant and found these radioactive earth worms. I discovered a new heavy metal that I named Wormium-243. It gave the night crawlers their green glow. On a plus side they caught more fish at night than the standard night crawler.

WhoDaMan got word that the bite was on for catfish and goo so of course I had to investigate being I hate missing out on a bite. I had some crawfish from last year frozen in water and figured that would work but it didn’t. I only had 4 goo and I brought them home and after filleting them I baited a few traps.

It was kind Biblical turning 4 fish into a 48 quart ice chest of fresh crawfish.

So I figured the Good Lord wanted me to go back and thin out some of the goo and who am I to argue with him so I went back on my way to the job site.

If it looks like I am straining to pick up these 17 fish it’s because I am…so I will continue to work out by increasing the amount of fish I catch. One thing I learned was to know the capacity of your ice chest and try not to exceed it.

That way you know when to stop fishing when the ice chest is full.


And always pack light. I found out 1 rod was all I really needed. WhoDaMan was fishing by Cecilie and her family that had a great Mothers Day Catch.

Well we built the Mother Of All Traps II (MOAT-II) Friday. It is in a place that is still holding water after a couple of weeks so it should catch them this winter and fall and maybe before. I stopped at a bait stand and there was a picture of a giant prawn so might have to look into trapping some of those too. It was caught on a rod and reel.

Here on the Redneck Riviera we experienced hurricane force winds with the passage of a front. Santa wanted to make another duck hunt after delivering all the Christmas presents so I said sure (who am I to tell Santa no). When we got there the camouflage duck sledge was all torn to heck and back. Needless to say the elves will have some work to do getting it back in shape. I told him to consider landscape timbers and plywood next time and plan on just leaving it down here. He said it would take a few more reindeer to get it down here but would be worth it.

I kind of propped things back and threw out some decoys cuz there was bunches of ducks flying around. Yep if you look close that isn’t smoke but a cloud of ducks on the horizon.


Well a little expert calling and Santa bagged the 13 species of duck since I have been down here. A really nice bufflehead that he is planning on having mounted cuz there aren’t any of them up on the North Pole.

He said he was ready to head on back and I said “What’s the hurry? Dove season is open lets go try for some.”

SonOfDaMan came along and made a most excellent shot almost decapitating a dove with his shotgun.

Santa’s shooting was not quite as good as with the duck hunting but he still got 4 in an hour and it was time to head back to the North Pole and start working on next years gifts.
