Discharges from Truman are minimal right now, that means Truman will be El FillupO.

Doesnt Ameren have to have LOZ with a ft or two of pool by May 1 or something like that. If this keeps up I dont see how they will have a spring draw down this year.

If they are going to drop the lake I hope they do it before the spawn. If not they will leave those eggs high and dry in the bushes.

Is anyone fishing below the dam?

How is crappie fishing below the dam when they are letting water out like this?

It can be awesome Duane......look for slack water.

Not good with heavy rain predicted......I can't remember the lake being this messed up for years. Last year the temperature was a roller coaster but this year the rain won't stop.

I'll be down in two weeks for four days on the Glaize one way or another.......if nothing else the beverages will be cold.

LOZ crappie,

They may need some DrainO to clear all that wood out that is headed for the dam, let alone the mud

I bet you're right, Mark. I remember the pictures of all the wood/stuff stacked up (I believe) at the Truman Dam last year and wouldn't be surprised to see Bagnell pretty messy, as well.
