Just wondering if anyone has been on Lewisville, and if so how it was. I've only been out in my bow fishing flat bottom and my bass boat, both of wich I can run in very little water. Not sure I'm wanting to put it till I hear from others.


Thanks

Yeah, saw the stumps and all the islands popping up everywhere! I do know the are not letting the water levels come up due to the construction on 35 till completed. Heard horror stories of drives and props being destroyed by all the new hidden features in the water due to being so low !!

I live on lewsiville and have been out both days last weekend. we are a little over 8' low and, yes, stumps everywhere but if you know where they are, you should be good. I live in Little Elm right across the street from the new ramp and boy is it nice! But once you go under the bridge to hit the main lake, it gets down to 3 1/2 low and there are a few stump under the waterline. Best advise is to say as close as you can to the row of stump you see sticking out of the water. that will be the deepest part and I havent hit anything yet. My buddy stayed further out from the visible stumps and ended up hitting 2 smaller ones under the waterline. He was in a pontoon tho. Taking my boat out tonight to head to lake Hamilton, AR for the holiday tomorrow.
