    I'm glad to see the water is coming up some, we haven't been down there since the water went under 11. It's getting to where I'm thinking about trying it again some day.

    It's still over 2' low for this time of year..........too bad this storm decided to blow up to a Cat 4 and move east. A nice tropical storm up the middle of the State would have been good for the lake.

    I have a group of about 9 couples that will be there. We're having a reunion of my old bass club Trail-Glades Bassmasters. We'll be a Roland Martin's Stop by and say hello

    I think that it would hurt as much as help right now the grass is exposed wind and that much water that fast could loosen all vegitation.then the corps would just dump it out.
