Was there on Saturday.
The deep water felt quite a bit cooler than that, but still warm enough to be a disappointment.
Seems to have dropped another few feet rather quickly also.

We were hanging out at the northwestern part of Lake Grapevine at the sandy beach there. As you walked up to the shore the water felt like 'hot tub' water. And yes, lake is real low

Fell free to send some of that warm weather north, around here it has been unseasonably cool. Both air and water.

With water temperature that warm, you guys encounter issue with high bacteria count? Or does high heat just kill the germs?

Honestly I'm not sure that I would want to know the answer to that :) Water temps can still get up another 4-6 degrees before they start dropping.

Bad bacteria thrive in warm or in that case hot water

yea what he said.

tried to take advantage of the Monday glass and its so cold everybody in the boat was begging to drive because of the heater.

On a brighter note the wife will no longer make fun of me for having said heater.

Got off the plane in Rocksprings, WY today to a nice 86 degrees. Nice break after working at the deer lease this past weekend in 111.

The warmer the water, the more the bacteria thrive. The main one is the Nagleria that gets in through the nose/ears when you take a big spill.

Rock Springs, WY. Been there, done that!

Like Kevin said, water temp at the jam will be mid 90s. And it unseasonably cool for us this time of the year too!

And you usually only run into bacteria issues in small bodies of water, ponds and such. Or we just have bad ass southern immune systems that don't take no crap from no bacteria!

Was at Lewisville last weekend, no better, it is almost... almost too hot to go out! Considered loading back up and finding a barstool!

I want to say our thermo said 86 on the Shady Shores side. I decided to take the trip down to the dam on Sunday, and it was a little cooler down there. It's just painful getting there due to the chop from the wind and the big boats. Only plus side is you can see about 2-3' deep thanks to the zebras. Most everywhere else, you can only see 3-6".
