    tony, Russ has been checking and they have not received much rain like rest of us have. Its come up some but according to the game warden for that area very little. Far as we know you aluminum boats have been launching but mot bigger boats. Russ was told you may be able to launch but very difficult to load

    Talked to a G&P friend a couple of days ago after a few of the heavier rains. He said it's come up maybe 6 inches. He echoed Jim's comments that loading unloading a larger fiberglass boat is still difficult. He also said the curley leaf vegetation was very thick from shore out to 30' or so. That water shed is small and covered with grass that has absorbed any rain that has fallen on it so no runoff. It needs a couple of those 6' rains directly over it like Wahoo and Omaha received earlier this week

    Thanks Jim. I haven't ventured down or called G&P but does that mean its coming up or going down? I thought it's been touching the bottom of the ramp since last summer

    It gets an inch or two from time to time but that prairie land just sucks it up. Very little change in lake level
