After we get that completed, we will have a complete plan on how to improve the dam structure. Just think, the lake being held at 263' year around instead of having the 1' winter drawdown...
I would like to complete the following things during the next drawdown:
-renovate the dam to a weir spillway
-reroute boat trails away from areas that are too close to the bank
-REMOVE ALL STUMPS FROM ALL BOAT TRAILS!
-remove delapidated piers and boathouses

These are the main issues. I would encourage all anglers to improve the habitat in the lake when it is drawn down. However, it is tough for you to compete with the structure (cypress tress) already in the lake. Go for it though. Just be sure to send me the coordinates!
