a fisherman drowning in the creek alert !!!
some of you know and some don't but to be sure when they sound the horn on the spillway you got 20 minutes to get out of the area .
case in point ,the other day they sounded the horn and most of the herd of creek boats turned and left the area .
the spillway area is a popular spot in the winter for lots of fish and folks trying to ketch them .
2 guys in a john boat didn't leave when the horn sounded and one came out alive and the other didn't !
they found the boat about a mile downstream …..those 2 guys have been up in that area a bunch of times in the past and should have known better ,but when the fish are biting its easy to want to stay .
so boaters beware and keep in mind even a little creek can get really ugly if they turn on the water flow above it at the spillway .
and in closing my condolences to the families and friends of the man who didn't make it out .
p.s. one of our crappie.com members was in there the day it happened in a kayak and left just prior to this tragic event .
