    Default Nimrod lake report


    High and rising. COE forecast to crest about 358 msl on April 5 barring any rains. Spring level is suppose toi be 345 msl. Looks like it will be messed up through the spawn . Might get lucky and get lowered before spawn is over. Best we can hope for is late April normal levels.
    Guess Dardanelle will clear in a few days and be good for camp weekend unless it rains alot.

    Dardanelle Creeks clear up most time within days when the COE pulls water on the Arkansas River.

    We've got the exact opposite problem around here, west of Fort Worth. My home lake is 5 feet low, the next lake south of me is 13 feet low, and a couple of other area lakes are almost 20 feet low.

    Wish I had a better idea of how high it has to be at Nimrod to be:
    -At the top of the launching ramp of Sunlight Bay
    -Parking lot underwater there
    -Camp sites in peril

    355.97 right now and rising. Seems that the slightest shower in the west part of the state will rise Nimrod by five feet.

    Looks like a 'normal' wet year in the Spring in Arkansas. Nimrod has been 10-30 feet high from March to June every year in recorded history, except for last year. I did well last year. But never when the water is this high. I can hear my late uncle say "Can't fish now, boy, there's too much water"........
