Draining the lake to built a new spillover type damn, remove years of built up silt, recut the boat lanes and plant new Cypress trees, as well as clean up old docks, etc. The draw dowm is expected to last 5 years and then 3-4 more years to restock and get fish to respectable size.
Not sure about removing any silt . They seem to think it will compact if left dry awhile .Quote:

Kinda like fish in a barrel.
Really not many boats there best I remember . You had to put flatbottoms in by hand . I never saw many Crappie caught the day I was there .Quote:
