Recce

 



After a hearty and delicious men's breakfast at Mission #2 I drove 'round the corner to Lake Whitney's dam spillway for a recce. What would the fish be doing? Answer. Nothing at all because the water had turned into a kind of murky, algae bloom disaster.




Fair play, there  were a couple of turtles, but the whole thing looked like a fishing eschaton, so I turned the rig 'round and headed for home, for the Compound. So, that was that and seriously, I've never seen the water look this way over the past 15 years.


clean the dam floor, LSP

Clearly someone's forgotten to pay their Weather Tax.

Algae love heat.
You all be safe and God bless.

What happened to the lake?

LSP said...

Ridiculously hot, Linda and the lake is low.

Bless you.

LL, the dam's hardly released any water for the last few months so the spillway area's become this turgid, still, weed ridden nightmare. The lake itself seems ok, just low.
