What is the info in the Blackshear drawdown? When and for how long?
Looks like they started on November the 1 st
At least they waited. They started earlier this fall on Juliette and then it stopped raining.
It was down a just under 1-1/2 feet yesterday. They seem to dropping it at a rate of just under .5 ft.a day according to lake levels online. The lake was clean with little to no trash.
Thanks for the info. When are they raising it back up? I guess the 1st ramp at Veterans won't be usable before long.
starting December 15 paper said it would be back up by Christmas if it rained

May give it a try later this week. Heard they were taking down real slow because of low water in river.....cooler nights have got to help.
i went Sunday morning and the fish were stacked up in the river channel but would not bite we caught 1 good keeper and 3 small ones and a bass from around 8:30 till 12 :00 noon. saw one boat right after we got there two men and they had 3 fish . my wife caught the big one .:yikesat least she was happy .
we were dropping minnows from 12 Ft to the bottom tried shooting a jig up against the RR cement pilings . to Wendy for me to control the boat so stayed on the south side ,the draw down should be completed by the 11 Th
I wish they would draw Talquin. Mack always said the fishing comes back after each drawdown.
When they finish the draw down there will be only 2 ramps that will be safe to put out at. The main ramp at the Vet Park, the one that is on the right as you go in the main entrance to the Park and the ramp at Smoak Bridge. All the others will be too shallow
Rusty, unless something has changed we had no problems at the new mega ramp last draw down either.
Ok thank you justfish. I don't use the mega ramp anyway.
the lake is down campers haven boat ramp is being used by small boats only . the mouth of the creek has a sandbar across it and only small boats can get through .
