I wouldn't cancel any trips or plans yet. keep a check on this board an see how it affects the fishin, I'm gettin some encouragin reports already. The COE seems to be holdin the lake so a lot of the ash should settle in the upper lake where the water first starts backin up. there is already a lot of silt settled in this area and the folks in the know say this stuff bonds with mud an sinks to the bottom. As much water exchange that occurs in this watershed may lessen the effect to where there is no noticable change in the overall fishin. being a fisherman at heart, I'm always optimistic!
