Nice report. Sounds enjoyable.

Gate was still locked so had to drag in from the old bridge. Gates should open this weekend or next.

That’s a heck of a drag when the water is down.

Thanks for another great report DB!! Nice water temps

Gates open sometime between the 10 and 15. They only announce the specific date every few years. Last time they announced when the gates were opening was March of 2022 and they opened the 10th that year. I watch for upper Limestone closely, LOL. They list it as Beaverdam Peninsula.

I go through most days after work to miss traffic.

They probably got by after I left Saturday or Sunday to unlock it.

Thanks!!!
