They drop the reservoirs up here clear down to the original river channel in most places which makes for some incredible exploring opportunities for the upcomming summer pool. The bad part about that is they never get a chance to stabilize a weedline, lillypads etc, which would create some very outstanding fishing opportunities for all species of fish. Anyway, thanks for your reports on Patoka and I'll be looking forward to reading more of them in the future.............treepotato
