How high is Smithville going to be?

[love2fish]

After the heavy rains and dock damage at camp branch does anyone know about how much the lake is going to rise. I haven't been since Sunday so have no idea. Hope its not as bad as last year when lake came up during spawn.

Dock damage?

Yea camp branch marina got some dock damage from wind. A small portion of roof collapsed over a walkway is what it looked like

I plan on hitting the banks Friday evening. First time there this year. Hopefully I'll run into more crappies than snakes.

The walkway going to the docks broke loose at the bottom and is/was in the water. Could not get to any of the docks by land.

last year when inflow was this high the lake jumped several feet in less than 24 hours. I would think 4' on the conservative side of things
