The COE has reduced the spillway flow to minimum and started the spring fill for the big lake. This has effectively ended the winter spillway fishing season. For the first time in the 30+ years that I have been fishing the spillway, there were no fish to be caught (or snagged) from Dec.-Feb. There seemed to be similar results from the lower lake. When there are only a couple of vehicles (or none) at the Sardis spillway in January, there is a problem. I wonder if this is an early indicator of bigger problems to come at Sardis Lake.
