I agree about Lewisville sometimes its out of control with the boaters who do not care about anyone else on the water nor their boats. Too many drunks especially on the holidays.

I have only been on Lewisville twice this year and seen your Cig out that day. Party cove was dead that Sunday. Nice boat and looks newer than the year it is.

If you want to laugh at trashy boating at its best head over to Joe Pool lake but at least its still open around the neighborhood. This year is wash for inland Texas boating with the fires and low lake levels along with too damn hot.

Still have not heard any word on Texoma but made the phone call. They are busy for this week.

Pk has fires again, I think this makes it 3 or 4 times this year. The 1st one was bad for many around the lake.

Got some feedback today, it would be a wise thing to do as far as swimming at lake Texoma. DON"T.

The algae can release a toxin that can make you sick or even death.

Low water conditions, no rain along with areas that have stagnet water has a lot of bacteria in it.

Meningtis can develop if your immune system is weak especially in young ones.

Eagle Mountain Lake is not bad on Labor Day. It has been really slow this year as far a boats on the water. No, algae issues or fire issues. Only low water and chitty rams, but still manageable. We will be out there all weekend.
