Fall fishing from boats is going to be really really short this year with the 5' draw down. Really annoys me since the best fishing on the lake is in October - November.
Kayak hybrid M&G this year fellas??
60 Inch 5-Year Drawdown2
• If the water level in the lake is at 9 feet: beginning on September 22nd the gates
shall be opened to reduce the water level in the lake by 1.5 inches per day.
• The start date for the drawdown shall be adjusted according to the water level in
the lake, such that if the lake is above 9 feet the drawdown will begin one day
earlier for each inch and a half above 9 feet and if the lake is below 9 feet the start
of the drawdown will be delayed by one day for each inch and a half below 9 feet.
The rate of drawdown shall be adjusted to account for rainfall throughout the
drawdown period.
• The rate of release shall be adjusted to reach a water elevation in the lake
of 4 feet
