    Badin

    Haven't been since early spring, what's the water looking like since all these rains?

    It's full. Water is pretty good in creeks and around islands. Mud line was just coming down past Palmer Mt. this morning but the way they were pulling water it has to be to the dam now. It was still pretty good around the islands this evening.

    We put in at Circle Drive the yesterday, didn't go to far from Circle Drive but water was pretty clean. Didn't get out toward River.

    So what happens on Badin, does the mud usually go all the way down the lake or does it wash out before making it all the way down?

    I went down toward the dam today. Water was heavy stained to muddy. Probably2-3 foot visibiliy at best. I was kind of surprised that it was that good after seeing the midline yesterday. The rest of the lake hasn't changed from yesterday. I'm not sure how hard they were pulling it today.

    usually this, if they pull a lot of water it doesn't always backup that far on the other side

    Looks like that one major creek arm stays pretty clear.

    not current, just went back to past years with similar conditions. I like looking at those before a tournament, same for when the water is low,

    I think every time I've went to Badin it's been stained or muddy, but I like that.

    reynolds tends to stay the clearest. I like some stain. When it's completely muddy I just stay home.
