LOTO Water Level

Headed up there later this week.
I hear the water level is extremely high -- up to sea-walls?
Anyone confirm? What's the debris report?
Thanks.

The water level is high not to the seawall tops though. Debris is thick this year do to all of the rain. Keep a keen eye on whats in front of you. Good luck.

The lake level is right for this time of year. The trash in the water seems to be getting less. I was there from Wed. thru Sun. and it got alot better each day.

LIke the others have said, the water level is right for the time of year. Ran from the dam to Back Water Jacks and back today. Only saw a one small string of junk. It is much better than it was a month ago.

This AM around 9 there was a ton of junk at the 19 MM. A piece of foam that had to be 6 feel long and a lot of larger and small branches. Went almost clear across the channel

Rich, what's up with the one motor? Where are you having it worked on? At least there are a lot of good shops there to get you back running.

Jassman's used worn out center console with old spilled drinks in it.
Beware that there was an article in the Lake Sun Leader last week that there will be a number of on water WP stops this weekend where everyone will get checked for safety equipment and if you give them a reason to make you blow, be sure it will happen. I think it is some kind of national or state dry boating awareness week or something, I can't remember.
