Lake is up about 19 feet and still rising. All ramps are closed for all those interested.

Lake is up about 19 feet and still rising. All ramps are closed for all those interested. I would like to see some pics of that! Looks like Broken Bow drains into Millwood Lake just north of Texarkana and it is already around 13' high before it goes into the Red River. Makes you wonder how much water will be flowing through there in a few days/weeks when Texoma starts letting water out too... There is a crazy amount of coordination between organizations and states when it comes to all of this. Actually I guess all 3 lakes are Core lakes, but still...

I have a trip planned up there in June so been following it some, they let a lot of water out down spillway creek in the month of April. The flow seems to be manageable now and the trout fishing has actually returned to being decent (unlike 2007 when it blew out roads and all the holding cover) if the local bulletin boards are accurate.

Right now it is holding everything because of everything else is flooded.It runs into little river which feeds Millwood. I drove over Little river twice Sunday and it was out of its banks.Pine Creek Lake is on Little Riverand it is 28 feet high and holding. They have not held water in Pine Creek for a while due to Dam damage.It will be 2007 all over again.

...but, that was before the water level rose. I talked to the fly shop up there and they cant release much water out because the Red River is overflowing. When it gets back to normal, they are probably going to open things up again

If this is valid, it sucks..was headed there this weekend for a few days of fun fishing. Can't fish the local lakes as they are all closed.

Some people will put in at the narrows. Its to bad because the fish are biting. Trout guide told me he is doing very good and catching some big rainbows.

I would imagine Pine Creek is closed. It is 28 feet high. As for putting in at the narrows on Broken Bow, I was told yesterday that that is useless. Log jams up the river is so bad that you can't get through, that you could practically walk across the river on jammed up debris because there is no flow, just incoming.

Pine Creek ramps are closed. I drove up Sunday evening to check and all gates were locked. You can still put in on old highway 3& 7 on the west side or a couple of the dirt roads on the west side about midway up the lake.

I fish up there some and have been going to the lake for 30yrs but have not heard of the narrows. Where is it located? And Millwood is way up the river is way out of its banks. It may be awhile before they all get back to some normal.
