Water level and going down43939

water level hasn't really changed much as of late. general consensus is that the lake is dropping and dropping fast. we've been pretty stable for the past month or two. it dropped like 2-3' feet two months ago but right now its minuscule. i wouldnt be worried too much. even if it were to drop another 20' we'd still be clear. i was going over way points the other day that i made when the lake was down pretty gnarly and they're still in 60-80' of water.

If they do drop it another 20 feet, I might have to fish DVL more because that spot pictured is a great spot when the lake is low.

No doubt. Was metering some of those spots today. But I agree with everyone else here, that hill is a freaking mountain at the end of the day...

Howd u guys do today. I was gonna stop and say hi but the 15 mph wind drift and my 12v trolling motor wouldnt allow it.

How far is DVL from the low point when the lake was closed and then the ramp was extended a few years back?

We did pretty good. We boated 15, a few less than last Tuesday but better than last Thursday when at least for us, the bite slowed down quite a bit. How did you do?

The lake was just under 100ft down at it's lowest point during the last drawdown. I'd say it has a little over 30ft left to go before it reaches that point...

We got about 20, some on the trash fish but most came on texas rigged worms in about 25 feet. The wind was pretty brutal so we spent a lot of time setting up for and dragging certain areas.

Nice job dude. I caught 7 of them on a t-rigged creature bait, and 7 were caught on a blade, surface to 5ft deep early then slow rolled deep when the lights came on. Later in the afternoon I caught them shallow again on the blade on wind facing, chopped banks. My buddy got his fish on a blade. He lost what had to be close to a 5lb fat pig on a blade but he didn't shove his tip under and it jumped about 2ft in the air and shook it off. That sucked, it would have been his best fish in a couple of years...

Sucks about losing the pig. U guys are on the water a lot. He'll stick a toad soon enough. Good luck out there!
