I think the plumber at the G'ville dam forgot where he put the stopper for the drain at the dam. The pier at Browns creek was about 3 1/2 feet above the deck of the boat this afternoon.

They definitely pulling the plug on her must be going to rain ! I sure hope so ! We haven’t had rain in about 3 days ! the ground is so dry I can barley make it to the car with out sinking up in the mud !:Rofl
Mini drought.
I wish they would stop. Ready for Pickwick to get right. They did some flooding below the dam. Time to pinch them back.
D, I don't know what they're thinking. We're supposed to get a little rain tonight and tomorrow morning, but not much. Then it's the weekend before they have any more in the forecast. They were still letting it rip this afternoon. A ton of current headed downstream.
TVA is notorious for messing things up. You should know that by now. Your tax dollars at work!
They've still got 11 gates open as of today

It seemed to work but only killed it from about the top down to about a foot or 2 under the water but did not kill it at the roots so it always comes back. Only chemicals kill it out right. Right now the mil-foil/Hydrilla where I fish have about been replaced by this curse called eel or ribbon grass. Not sure what bright individual put that in the lake but its a mess now.
Yeah that eel grass is a mess. I forgot that they pulled it down low last winter too. I guess they just haven’t been able to do that this year
We need rain my mud is about to dehydrate.
Hang in there C Flopper 90 percent more rain this Saturday if the weather channel is right
Upstream is about to get a LOT of precipitation. Guntersville is one of the only lakes in the TVA system that can store a lot of water and they're making room for it.Quote:
