On my drive to Oologah yesterday, I noticed the Caney and Bird Creek were both up. Interesting because the flow at the dam was lower than it has been in a while. Went down almost 4 ft from Wednesday to Thursday. (stage still at 14' today)

Looks like we have a lot of water coming down from Kansas. Toronto lake came up 20ft in 24hrs.
Verdigris River Basin in the Tulsa District

The lake level is definately rising...taking a sharp angle upward on the chart. Dang, I was hoping to get out this weekend, I wonder what that's gonna do to the fishing.
Oologah hasn't really started coming up yet. It's only come up 3/10s of a foot in the last 12 hours. That won't affect the fishing.
Even with Toronto up 20 feet, they are only letting out 2546 cubic feet per second as of today at 11am. That's less than they are letting out of Oologah. Toronto Lake is less than 1/10th the size of Oologah at full flood pool, it is a very small body of water. It would be hard for them to send us a ton of water.
