Thread: Wildcat Brake

Being a law breaker by nature, I considered going on through, but I also don't care much for the idea of being electrocuted. Good sense won for a change, and I turned around.

Anybody know what electrical hazard they got back there? I've fished Wildcat when the lake level was much higher than it is now, so this has to be a new issue, right?

Large powerline at Bluford McCullugh and is in the water . Not sure I want to be anywhere on that lake if line gets exposed . lol

Thank you for the reply. And that was my thought too. If there was an electrical hazard there, what was the safe distance from it?

I was told they have to raise the lake to 8’ over full pool and float a barge back there to repair the line and the light pole

Everything thing is an event when you get the government involved or any local engineers. Most were held back a few grades, not their fault I reckon..
