4 January 2025 “Happy 🆕 Year”

[HEN]

They are still running the bunger valve at "a full river" so you can't wade it and it's nearly un fishable. I've seen no sigh of any fish being stocked since last Decembers stocking. The good news is there is no methane smell like before and the water is reasonable clear. The lake is at 547.14 this morning, it is finally coming down now that most of the water has come down from Langley, which makes Albert Pike now fishable.

Haven't heard any more "rumors" about when work will start on the dam or how far down they intend to pull the lake. At this full pool, they will only get about 1/2 foot per day off the lake. Therefore IF the target level happened to be a 530 foot pool level, it would be at least another 34 days of bunger running!!😬😬☹️☹️. But who knows, they could stop bungering tomorrow 🤣🤣🥴.

Happy New Year to all and I'll keep you posted unless Jeff runs me off this year.
