Lake Levels

TVA sure pulled the plug on Pickwick in prep of all the storm rain. Was talking to a friend yesterday that lives at Pride Landing and said he could see stumps that he'd never seen before. All the glitter rockets had better be careful for a while.

Hope they keep the gates closed there. I'm leaving today to head down for 5 days of sauger and walleye fishing.

Yikes.
How deep would those stumps normally be?

They had Old Hickory was pulled down last weekend

I always wondered why they pull them down if we're in a drought? They couldn't open the gates to match the rain fall? I guess it could overwhelm the dams?

I don't think anyone wins if they have to open the gates.

Afraid you are in for some tough conditions. Tons of trash & debris in river along with muddy conditions...

Bottom pulled out of Pickwick yesterday & Wilson a foot over full pool today. Lots of debris in river including a camper floating in Shoals Creek this morning.

Ky lake is up today from yesterday but no where near full pool
