These are from 105 by papas ice house.




These are from the 1097 small bridge by the Shell marina







Thies are from the end of 830.

Damn it, that sucks

I got excited yesterday when I got pelted with a few rain drops out on lake lbj. I can't wait for this drought to be over. Hopefully next year will have a little more rain...

Don't count on it. People have been telling me that this drought is suppose to last 2-3 years. I don't know where they got that info though. I am getting my boat prepared for salt water with a closed cooling system for next year. It looks like we may not have any choice. I hope I am wrong.

I am not buying 2-3 years...one tropical storm or hurricane and she will be back to normal level....maybe wishful thinking...

The driving force behind our drought is LaNina. the stronger LaNina conditions are the worse the drought conditions are for the mid southern regions. You can keep up with LaNina forecast here:

I passed Conroe yesterday, and there were still some boats out on the water. I know its pretty deep on the 105 end..... but not sure how deep.

Thought I would post some photos of Lake Conroe I took yesterday afternoon from Lakeview Marina. For all the doom and gloom that the press are giving us.....40' to 50' deep from the dam to almost 1097 bridge and then it's 20' to 30' deep. As you can see lots of deep water to play on.

We still have 20' till the end of our ramp and 4' deep at end then 8' to 20' to the main body of the lake. The ramp is marked so you know where the end of the ramp is.

From what I have ben reading they climatologists are saying no chance at a tropical storm for us this year here in TX. I havn't been reading up n the drought for 2-3 years though. I hope that doesn't happen.

We are getting our flat bottom boats out today and running them a little. My buddy has a V drive and I have an outboard.

I just realized I might not be able to get gas from valero or shell in the sea ray. Getting stuck at the marina with no gas is gonna suck.
