Y'all Think the Basin Spillway is going to fall any in the next month?

Hey Guys, long time no post! Howdy to everyone that remembers me from way way WAAAY back in the day.

I thought I would put of a post here and see if y'all could help me with something.

Just wondering if y'all think the water is going to fall in the Basin Spillway in the next month...

I'm from Shreveport La and used to post on here all the time fishing in the deep reservoir lakes up north. I moved down south and started charter fishing redfish and trout out of Shell Beach and quit posting. Had to spend all my time on my charter website.

ANYWAYS... I have been doing a yearly camping trip into the spillway around this time of year. I put in at Adam's Landing across from Lake Verret. Yall think that is a wash out this year? I am planning the 13th-24th of April. You guys think the river will fall again in time for that? I am guess I would need the gauge at Morgan City to be around 3-4ft for it to be any fun. We usually net baby crawfish, set limb lines, and catch sac-au-lait in the cypress trees down the canals.

Thanks much,

April will be good. I hope the fish will not spawned till then. I did http://www.crappie.com/crappie/louisiana/328236-river/ a post on river levels here.

HTH

Yea it shows the river to be on a slow fall by next week hopefully it stays like that

Well that's great news! Got me hoping again. Thanks much yall

About time you made it back on here Markham! Had to look twice to make sure it was you and someone else hadn't came up with a screen name close to yours! lol Great to hear from you again. Hopefully you will stay around for awhile! I can't help you much with your question but I will be in the marshes around my place fishing around those times if you feel like making a trip to the west!
