🟢get_fishing

Live water conditions for the waters people fish near Crosby, TX — Lake Houston, the San Jacinto River forks, the Trinity River, and nearby bayous — from USGS real-time monitoring. Full stations report temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and turbidity; some fished bayous report water level only. A nearby-station reading, not the exact fishing spot, and conditions rather than a guaranteed bite.
