Harris (the good) and Jordan (the bad)

Had to be in Chatham County this morning so rode by Jordan and Harris after my work was finished. Below are the pictures. Good news, Harris is ready to fish. Water is clear and maybe just a few inches above normal if that many. Saw Slowtroll (Freddie)'s truck in the parking lot, so I know he is getting ready for Saturday. Looks like should have a good day for practice fishing and the tournament.

Jordan is another story. Many of you have heard me say that my Grandparents farm was under Jordan lake and they had to move in the early '70's. All my life I have been in or around this lake and land. Personally, this is the highest water I have ever seen. These pictures are from Ebenezer and in the picture of the ramp, notice the trash cans where you take the boat out and prep to leave are partly underwater. It will be a while for this lake to settle down. But, and a very important point, this lake is keeping residents in parts of Fayetteville and Wilmington from looking like some of the pictres I am seeing from the Midwest.

Good grief!!! The Ebenezer ramp walkway is almost submerged.
I cross the 64 bridge every evening to go home from work and there have been tree stumps and trees that are so large as to have the silhouette of a kayaker.

harris looks nice, havent seen clean water in two months, sat will be my first day off this week, so i'm coming in cold, ya'll find me some fish.

Will do. It will be interesting to see how the warm water will impact them.

Thanks for the pics. That is an unusual amount of water in Jordan for sure.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow and Saturday. I should be there around 10am tomorrow.

Gobbler glad you are going to be able to make it! See you guys in the morning!

See you guys tomorrow! !

I won't be there till sat. Like I said I'm coming in cold, haven't been on Harris since July. I just like tx's and like to show my support, its not a simple task putting one on.

amazing!

here are some pics from farrington.Attachment 224871Attachment 224872 note the street signs are about where the speed bump is

The crappie have been on fire at Jordan since Christmas day...I have been catching them in 2-3 ft of water.

Water is high. 2 days ago it was within 2 ft from going over the spillway at Hortons pond. Today is is 1-2 ft deep over the spill way. right after Fran when Jordan cam up right at the Hortons pond dam I watched schools and schools of shad and other fish swim into Hortons pond.
