They are idiots, misinformed or liars. Or not? Actually, the lake is hosting the largest fishing tournament in the nation in 2010, the Forrest Wood Cup. Oh, and it's came up a foot recently! Here's a link about the Cup coming: Maybe in 2 years things will be OK, but I wouldn't put any eggs in that basket unless you plan on talking the ACoE into cutting off the water to all states downstream.... so they can have the tournament. Lanier is 20 feet low and predicted to go lower! The level is so low that Action Zone 4 is in effect. IOW, "Zone 4 indicates that navigation is not supported. Hydropower demands will be met at minimum level and may only occur for concurrent uses. Water supply and water quality releases are met. Minimum flow targets are met."http://water.sam.usace.army.mil/lanfc.htmhttp://water.sam.usace.army.mil/zones.htm And it looks like only two boat ramps are open!http://lanier.sam.usace.army.mil/ParkSchedule.htm My lake levels are rising, however.....! A benefit of global warming..... Waterworld? -- Forté Agent 5.00 Build 1170 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
