There is a group of us going on Easter Weekend (the 29th-31st). 4 boats going. One of our friends is lake testing and possibly buying a 33 Outlaw on Friday. If all goes well during the lake test, 2 other Bajas may join on Saturday, plus mine. Shoot me a PM and I can let you know when we get the deets nailed down later this month. Next weekend, I might be flying solo, we'll see how the weather looks.

West of 35 is shallower to begin with, that's how the lake is. If you were West of 35 on the main lake (where Sneaky Pete's and Arrowhead) and under the bridge headign west, then I hear it get's pretty sketchy even when it's a couple of feet low if you go far enough west. If you go east from that to the main body of Lewisville, you're ok. I'm not sure about the old lake Dallas side going north from party cove. I usually put in at Arrowhead and run straight to the cove, with a few blasts across the main body of Lewisville by the dam. Last year, it was 14 ft low at the most, and I didn't have any problem going through the north cut across the old dam. The southern one by party cove got kinda sketchy at around 10 ft low.

We need rain! I'm not a big fan of party cove at all, so when I'm on the water I like to run the boat and have the RV set up at pilot knoll park for the weekend, however, it's not looking good at this point!!

Doesn't look like the wind is going to give up any time soon! I noticed the water level came up a bit!
