    They are lowering the water 4ft starting on October 23 this year [2023]. Time to get out fishing while the water is still up.

    Good to know, thanks Bill! I think i got one or two more trips to the LZ open water? Bite was great today at dusk. If only I had another hour.
    FYI the dock is pulled at Pondy. Seems a bit early but makes sense with the draw down.

    The RPU website says the drawdown will start on Oct. 29, will be brought down 4 feet by Nov. 6th and held there until Nov.20 at which time it will be slowly brought up the the 2 foot drawdown level for the remainder of the winter.

    “FYI the dock is pulled at Pondy. Seems a bit early but makes sense with the draw down”….eyeguy Bring some knee boots to keep the feet dry.

    The website states that the 4 foot drawdown departure from the 2 foot drawdown is for shoreline repairs and dam maintenance.

    Anybody on LZ recently? I was out a couple weeks ago and water was as dirty as I have ever seen it in a long time.

    Just wondering if it has cleared up much.

    Still under no wake, but may come off the restriction by the weekend and the water will be very dirty.

    Thanks Tom

    I like the no wake and cooler weather since it keeps the riff raff off that lake but I will try another option tomorrow until it clears up a bit.
