« Last post by HEN on March 04, 2023, 06:14:00 AM »Disregard last post, they just started generating at 6:00!!! Right now it looks like 1 generator running but I’ll bet there are more to come. Guess this blows up the whole weekend. 😡😡. Goes to show how much consideration the Corp gives the trout fishermen!

Hen's Nest Reports! / 4 March 2023 “Real time info at 5:19 am Saturday”
« Last post by HEN on March 04, 2023, 05:42:19 AM »For some reason the Corp decided to stop generating yesterday at 6:00pm and they are not generating at this minute!! Ouachita river did come up, but not to flood pool?? Will they hold water today and tomorrow as scheduled, your guess is as good as mine? Better fish if they do because next weeks schedule shows generation 24/7!! I will try to keep you posted in real time here, but I too plan to fish today as soon as I can, you know, 50 degree rule!! It’s setting up to be a great fishing weekend. Barometer is rising, full sunshine and temperatures in the 60’s!! Lake is back at full pool, and 5 3/4 foot of water at Langley gage so who knows what actions the Corp will take. I actually expect them to crank up at any minute 🤔🤔.
The water temperature has remained at the 50 degree range even with all the run off and running of the bunger valve. Water clarity is milky, chocolate milky, with all the rain run off. Lots of fish all over the river so break out your muddy water flies.
Albert pike was stocked last week with 800 catch pen (they will be small) fish. That’s an option for next week while they pull the lake down. If they stocked here last week I’m not aware? Hard to tell when you can’t fish, unless you just happen to see the truck 🤣🤣
Will post again in a couple of hours unless I head out fishing to try and beat the rising water. If you’re planning on driving up, it’s just a crap shoot. 😬.

« Last post by Parney24 on February 28, 2023, 07:16:40 PM »Yes the post are much appreciated. Keep up the strong work. Dad and I and some friends are going to roll the dice this weekend in hopes of getting to fish Friday-Monday. But looks like they aren’t sticking to that generation schedule so hoping it all works out. Thanks again mike for the updates. I wouldn’t have know they weren’t sticking to the schedule if it wasn’t for you. Thanks!
