Hey can some tell me if Hyco is still discharging hot water? I know they stopped in 2015 or so. Was wondering if they ever started back.

Hyco has never stopped discharging hot water. Depending on what units are running will determine whether or not hot water is coming out.
Still discharges. Not as warm as it used to be. Newer cooling system cools the water before it goes back in
the newer cooling only effected one unit. other two are the same.Originally Posted by Zach201xl
Sure, definitely still not as warm as it used to be
Cost ya 25.00 a day boat ramp access fee or 75.00 for a year to fish it also, according to their website.

Water around the hot discharge is 8-9 degrees cooler than it was 6 yrs ago.

Just a nominal fee to pay to get your string pulled in December and January.
It's nor worth the drive or the $25.00 fee to fish it.
Yep Hyco is TERRIBLE… No one should go there. Everyone should stay home and eat lots of cheese cake till the spring!
So is the water still warmer around the hot hole? It has been 10 or more years since I was there so honestly asking a serious question.
Yep everyone stay home it’s not worth it nor are any other lakes in the surrounding area . Less pressure is a good thing

Right now it’s about 6-7 degrees warmer than the rest of the lake. But only in the bay, right around the discharge. Water cools much quicker as you move out of the bay compared to 10 yrs ago.
