    Default Green River conditions ?


    Anyone been to Green River lately? I know the water is up above summer pool but is the entire lake muddy? How is the crappie bite ? Thanks for any info in advance.

    per COE facebook site https://www.facebook.com/GreenRiverLakeUSACE
    "Lake Level Update: as of 7:10 am lake level is 690.55 msl with a setting of .5 tenths on the main service gates and an outflow cfs (cubic feet per second) of about 259. Surface Temperature: 63 degrees.

    Be aware that due to high water levels Site 1 boat ramp, Smith Ridge boat ramp, the State Park boat ramp, the State Marina boat ramp, and most of Wilson Creek Rd are CLOSED. Emerald Isle, Butler Creek, and Holmes Bend boat ramps are still open FOR NOW."

    At 690.55 that makes it 15.55 above summer pool.

    Yeah ... and unfortunately, the area weather forecast is for more rain thru next Monday. Then cooling down and easing off the rain % potential ... but, we all know how accurate a 10 day forecast usually is

    This early wet spring has me bumbed out. So far this is the 3rd wettest April and looking more like the flooding of April 2011. When it finally stops raining, we will probably go to a draught this summer, then no gardens or grass to mow, guess we'll have to fish then. With all the flooding on the Ohio, the COE are holding all area lakes till the Ohio eases up.
    Maybe I start drawing ark plans up, and gather up wood for a new project.
