what does this mean for us the fishing community? will we now have to pay to access/fish the lake? i wouldnt mind having to pay a few dollars each time out if i knew it was goin to make things better.

They would plan it the same day as the Eufaula deal. Oh well, I am at Eufaula so guess I will complain later.

What the meeting means is that you will hear what ODWC has planned for the lake over a 5 year period. It should be a good program to go and hear. Keith Thomas is a fine biologist and GeneG who wrote the post is Gene Gilliland, one of the senior biologists. Iknow them both.

I really wish I could make the meeting but I didn't know about it and I am in a motel waiting for the Eufaula meeting in the morning. I have already met several who came. Looks like it will be a fun time here.

Did anyone make it to this? I really wanted to attend, but was at the Eufaula gathering. Would love to know what the gist of this meeting was.
