Everybody/anybody considering coming to grl slabfest apr 16th

I WILL MAKE A JUDGEMENT CALL ON WHETHER OR NOT THE SLABFEST WILL BE A "GO" OR "NO GO" ... BY MID DAY FRIDAY APRIL 15TH.

WEATHER & WATER CONDITIONS WILL BE THE ULTIMATE DECIDING FACTOR.

THE SAFETY & COMFORT OF THOSE PLANNING ON ATTENDING, IS FOREMOST IN MY MIND .... so, IF I have to cancel the event, I will do so with much trepidation. But, understand that I'm doing so with everyone's well being in mind.

PLEASE ... CHECK BACK ON THIS FORUM, BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON ... JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE EVENT IS STILL ON !!

.... cp :cool:

Well like I said in my post the other day...I`m gonna try and come, but after last night an todays rain wouldnt ya think the lake be way up an full of debris??? after watching the Lex. news tonight..(WLEX 18 )...... I`d say Green got hit with 3-4 in of rain last night an today....and they talking about more rain Fri an Sat of this week..... with a cold front coming in on Sat. So far they say the high Sat. will be 58. I`ll check back on here Fri to see what the outcome is. Any chance we could rescheule if its a No Go on Sat ???

I live west of the lake about 25 air miles and we had 5 in in 24 hours and it was heading east!!

Standing by; hoping for good weather.

I live north of the lake about 30 miles and we got right at 5 inch rain Monday night. She is coming up quick, plus was already over summer pool to start with.

Looking at the Louisville Corps report they listed just little over a foot above summer pool. I probally will go down Thursday and see what I can do. The weather report looking good for the couple days.

That'd be tough, Ron ... if we rescheduled for the following Sat, we may have too many changes, in attending members, to deal with (who's coming/not coming/bringing the necessaries). I'll be in Tenn, on my annual Spring trip, on the Sat after that .... so it'd be May 7th, at the earliest, before we would have enough time to get everything in order. (we've been at this one, for awhile now, and still don't have all the food/equipment commited ... LOL !! )

I would come, but I will be done at WBL catching some big ones...........maybe. You know how it is down there, it is either good or bad. I'll shoot you a report when I get back.

just drove by holmes bend water is just over the ramp with water barely in the lower parking lot. maybe they can pull it back in good shape?

Louisville District Daily Lake Report
Check out this link, Green is almost 6 ft over summer pool today. Came up another 4.5 ft in the last 24 hrs and they aren't letting any water out.
It will continue to rise the next few days until they can let out some water
Hate to bare the bad news, but this 5 inch of rain has every lake around here messed up.

I went to Nolin today and trees are floating in the mainlake from dog creek down to conollaway!!

CP - posted on your other thread. My son and I are a go and we will bring some of the items uncommitted -

Not looking good for Saturday, with the lake being up so high I'm sure there will debris floating everywhere in the lake, not to mention the high will be in the 50's with the cold front coming through.

Doesn't look very promising ... weatherwise, conditions of the lake, temperature, or any other factors. Pretty sure this one's going to get cancelled, but I'll wait until tomorrow to make a final judgement.

The only promising thing about this whole situation is that, at least with the rain & air temps being on the cool side .... a delay in the spawn is almost a sure bet. It "MAY" allow us a shot at postponing the event for a couple of weeks. That being said .... someone else will have to set it up. I'm likely going to be 1 for 3 on getting this thing off the ground ... LOL !!

i went out today on Green River at ramp 1 water is rising. had to wade out to get my boat unloaded and loaded. 60-62 up creek and on main lake. fishing was tough only caught 2 keepers. one 27' the other 18' deep. more rain coming will put the water up even more. i dont know whether I will get to fish on saturday but I was planning on coming down for the fry to meet some of you guys. I will be watching post to see if slabfest is on. water in Robinson creek is muddy.
